My Beautiful Life
Hi there,
So today I have decided I wanted to start blogging again.
I haven't been on a blog in over 7 years. Its crazy, I know.
SO many changes have been made in those 7 years.
A lot of heartache, trouble, broken hearts, healing and the best part- LOVE!
In 2016 I met my soulmate.
It was simply a strange time in my life and I thought our relationship wouldn't last and I proved myself completely wrong. We met at the grocery store. Yes ... the grocery store. I was a cashier and he came in and smiled at me, and somehow we connected. I knew he was amazing from that moment, because no one had ever smiled at me like he did. It was a terrible time in my life where I needed someone but I didn't know that. I thought I had my own back but he showed me he cared about me more than I cared about myself and he has helped me through my battles.
I felt like we had just met and fell in love somehow. But over time, we really had a lot in common.
I have four children. Yes, I know I am so young and most people have told me I have lost my mind having four children. I don't agree with them, my children saved my life from a troubled road I was going down.
I am so blessed to say the least. Of course I still struggle sometimes, but I know there isn't a person here on earth that has a perfect life. I just make the best with what I've got and go with it. I always, always try to be a good mother. I may have days where I am holding back tears, but my babies see me strong!
I am currently attending college to become an elementary teacher. I am so excited but very nervous at the same time.
I truly wasn't sure what I was doing in education. I just prayed and prayed that God would show me what I'm supposed to do.
I saw a flyer in a grocery store saying that a school needed bilingual speaking teachers. I felt the calling then! I knew God had a purpose for my life, but never did I think that marrying a man who didn't speak the same language as me would be one.
My husbands first language is Spanish, while mine is English but I do try to speak Spanish as much as I can.
My husband and I communicate well, but you should have seen us when we first started dating. Our confusing conversations were hilarious. Remember: Google translate is NO BUENO. Haha
Its a process.
I went to the college I owed $800 to. I filled out a form to appeal the amount that I had to pay- the school approved it leaving me with a balance of $198.
Seriously that was GOD and his way of saying to go back to college. He literally paved the way for me to go, because I am able to make payments on my student account while attending classes this fall.
I originally wanted to go to school to be a doctor. I had credits already towards my degree but I changed my plan and I feel like I am starting over but its refreshing. I feel like a new start is a good change. I want to help others. I have children of my own so I feel like I am already educating them, in a sense.
I can't say exactly why God is pointing me toward education. All I know is, He doesn't make mistakes. This road is hard for me because it's a new scene. I am not familiar with the ins and outs of teaching. Since I was homeschooled past 7th grade I don't know much about public school systems. I feel really sheltered but that's okay because I'M LEARNING TOO!
I'm currently taking classes full time, I am a mother full time (because being a mom is 24 hours a day, really) and I am a part time employee taking care of people in their homes so they don't have to go to assisted living. I really have a heart for people and I know being a teacher will be a humbling experience.
Y'all please pray for me with this journey. Every day is a new one and no day is the same. Ever.
Most of the time I stay busy and it's hard to keep in touch with my family. I am hoping my friends and family can read all about my life on here so I won't have to constantly post to Facebook.
You all have a fantastic weekend.
Best, Rebecca
