Yesterday was my last day filling in as a guest editor…at least for a while. I thought (and the regional editor thought) it would last longer but, it is what it is. As with everything, there are pros and cons. We were hoping I would make enough in extra income through guest editing to fund our house renovation project. And, I would have had it last longer.

But, I know God has a plan for our family. Whether we remain as a family of three or add one more munchkin, I need to not stress about it. Everything is done in His time, and I need to remember that. Doors open and close for a reason, as I have seen happen SO many times in my life. Whenever I didn’t get an answer to prayer, I would be bummed until it became obvious that it happened for a reason.

The money I was bringing in was extra, which was nice, but now I’ll get to spend SO much more time with Lucy, and isn’t that the reason I quit my full time job in the first place? I’m still freelancing a bit (and hopefully will have a new magazine gig lined up soon) and doing some social media work, but it’s nothing like what I’ve been doing, and I’m looking forward to taking Lucy to more play dates, etc.

And, now I’ll have time to get back to my poor, neglected blog. Hopefully, our prayers will be answered the way we want but, until then, we are enjoying life with our crazy little toddler.
