Planning for the future

This is something I'm not so great at.
Last month the questions everyone was asking me were:
"How many weeks left?"
"Have you picked out a name, yet?"
"Are you ready for the baby?"

Now, I'm being asked:
"Are you going to work at the school again in the fall?"
"How are you feeling?"
"What are you going to do(financially) when the baby comes?"
"When are you going to go back to work after you have the baby?"

My options as of now are to get my short-call sub liscense and do that in the fall or be a stay-at-home mom and have a business out of my home with my mom.
If people would look at what my life has been like in the past year, they'd find out that I'm not much of a planner. At this time last year I was getting ready for college graduation and the choir trip to Europe. My aunt wanted me to help her open her restaurant in dowtown Minneapolis in the summer. I never thought I would have been unemployed so much and working at so many different places. Didn't think I'd get pregnant, have a miscarriage, get married and then get pregnant again. Life happens. You can only do so much planning and then you just have to go with what you believe is God's plan for you.

Only two more months...

I get to meet my little girl soon!
That is, I will be giving birth sometime around June 25th.

I'm excited to see her and hold her. Her daddy is too. I can't wait to see my husband with our little girl. When our baby is born I'll have a blog for her where you can look at pictures and read about her. Hmmm...maybe I should set that up today. On my next entry, I'll have the address for that blog.

Last Tuesday, I went to Women's Bible study and (Surprise!) they threw a baby shower for me. I was truly surprised and so happy. They are all such wonderful women and we had a great time. Next Saturday, two of my friends from high school are throwing me a shower for just my friends. It's too bad that all my friends from college live far away.

I've been working a lot more hours at the local schools, so I'm getting some money. With my husband out of work, money has been tight. I like working with the children in Special Ed. or those who need help with reading and math, but I can tell that my hormones are having a negative effect on my patience. Well, school's almost done.

Next month I won't be working and that's a good thing. At the rate my belly is growing, I'm going to be huge by June.
