The terrible two's have started early? What?

It could just be that she's beginning to make some changes in her life, and I'm not familiar with her new ways starting to come forth. I need God to help me with my patience and understanding. Sophie is really doing a good job at testing my patience, and I need to learn to be calm through it. It's not so easy. Time-outs have already been given, and she's only 16 months. But, they seem to work. :)

Anyway, life isn't TOO exciting, but I'm enjoying it. We definitely try to get Sophie together with other kids throughout the week, because she needs it.

I can't stop reading Ted Dekker books. I'm averaging about 2 books a week. I never would have thought that I would be a reader! But, look at me go! :) I love it! Who needs t.v. when there are amazing books to read!? :)

Anyway, just thought I'd post something while I had a couple of minutes. Now I'm off to read while Sophie naps.

I LOVE MY JOB!

I really do love my job! This is the perfect way to be a neat freak and be O.C.D. and get paid for it! I clean the orthodontist office Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday night. I'm only there for 1.5 hours a night, and I do my complete best. I put my 100% into my job. While I'm there, I get to think, pray and worship God. I put my praise on, and go. Apparently I do more than the previous guy that cleaned. I met some of the ladies who work there last night, and they all were to my surprise, very happy to meet me. They said they noticed the difference right away. I don't know what I do differently.... but all I know is that I want to do a good job, so it reflects positively on my boss.

Anyway, I think I found my calling in life! I LOVE TO CLEAN!! Maybe someday in the future I'll take on more jobs, but I'm going to stick to just one for now, so I can focus on raising my family. Honestly, it doesn't feel like work to me. It's just something I really enjoy doing. :) God knew what I needed and he provided it to me. He has blessed me and has exceeded my expectations! :)
