Life as I know it as of this morning

I can breath, finally!!! The last several months have been so stressful with Job searches and after having a person I thought would/should understand my situation, that treated me unfairly and very poorly made me feel even more stressed out. This morning though I woke up finally feeling at ease! Aaron so desperately wants to become a police officer and can I tell you it is a LONG hard process. A 4 month interviewing process is crazy! Once you spend a whole 4 months interviewing and don't get the job 4 months have passed and then you apply for another department and there is another 4 months. It's a cycle I just want to end! I know in my heart it will and I will be so proud of Aaron once it does! The guy works his butt off working (when there is work with his current job) AND going to school! The guy has dedication. On top of all that he comes home and takes care of 3 sassy girls;) He's amazing and I definitely picked a good one!! Still hasn't landed the job, but he will! I know it:) Even if we have to go 4, 8, 12 more months of this battle I will be proud and stand by his side with no regrets.

So life as I know it this morning... it's stressful, hard, but it's worth it!!  

Can't help but think...

I have said it many times that I hate a bully! Not only a child bully but an adult bully for that matter. After my recent experience I can't help, but think how much I wish my children never have to meet one. I know fat chance right!? They seem to be everywhere now days, any age. I am shocked by how many! Name calling, talking down on people and judging someone for how they chose/choose to live is not my style and honestly hurts me right down to my core when I see it. I will defend the other end no matter what they are doing because nothing is worse than the person being a bully! All I know all I can do is raise my children to ALWAYS treat one with respect whether you agree or disagree with what they do. I won't be that Mother who sets an example that words and stuff like that is ok! I don't want my children to treat people like that so why would I?
