God was that You?
so...
my heart wrenching decision that i was supposed to make this coming friday has been made for me. Marlene and Francois (my bosses) found someone new that will commit for way longer than i could ever even think of nannying for. which makes sense, they have been going through a lot of nannies and just want someone who is more permanent... so their kids don't have to get attached to one then get a new one.
the just of all of this is that after december i am done at this job. i am fine with that like totally. when i first heard that my decision was going to be made for me i was not happy but after thinking about it. i was going to say yes. but after some thinking, maybe God was helping me with my decision making. he knew that i probably couldn't handle to take care of two kids and find things to do for them every day for the next year. but rent is cheap and i am making good money and two very energetic kids; it almost sounds like a great combination for slowly going crazy! ahaha, not actually. but i am not ready to be a mom everyday yet which is pretty much my job right now.
i am not complaining. i love my job, being active and every moment is absolutely crazy, everyday is absolutely different, and you can never expect your plans to work out...
it sounds like plan b for brooke. either just finding another job or most likely college.
thanks to God for making my decision for me.

caught in the middle...
i admit... i am horrible at updating my own blog but when it comes to reading others i am all over it.
but i guess i should give you guys an update.
so i am in victoria, and everything is just going fine and dandy.
my nannying job is very unpredictable and you can never expect what little kids are gonna do, until they do it. but marcus is now in preschool, so that gives me a little break. mia is as cute as ever... and is so cute there is no getting angry with her.
i am not going to lie, having family here is so great. i enjoy my visits with the simpson family and the josoks as much as possible. they have kept me sane from going crazy in my little basement sweet. mallory got here this week and i am so excited to have someone experiencing something totally different just as i am. and the fact that manda is going to come live with me too. so i totally won't have anytime alone. seems amazing right now. i have had way too much alone time. in fact, guess what?!!? i am alone right now. i am so excited to see what will happen in the next year with all of us young ones finally growing up.
in all this i do have a prayer request. in a couple weeks, i have to tell the people that i work for and that i am staying with just how long i want to stay. i either stay until december or till next august. there are no in betweens. that is a big commitment for me and i am caught in the middle. some days i could stay and others i could throw in the towel right there. i am not one to like being tied down with something but i guess that is part of being in the real world that is harder than high school that everyone warned me about. i have so many options. i have a friend that wants me to move to new zealand with her in december... i could go to college... i could just travel... i could do some sort of missions... but i have no idea what i want to do.
enough rambling on... i think you got the point. so all i am asking is for your prayers, that would be wonderful, thank you!!!
love, hugs, misses and kisses
ps thanks for the couch kate...its perfect
