Patience

_-29 

The last time I was on my ramblings were very impatient that my patience had not been yet rewarded.  I have learned that my way in the world my direction to follow is shown to me.  I have to be willing and watch for the signs but they are there.  A few weeks ago I was arguing with myself over whether the early childhood position at church was my sign.  I looked into it extensively but finally agreed that although it was a great position and looked perfect for me, the timing was not right on my end so this could not be the direction but maybe more realistically a test of whether or not I was watching for the signs.  If I took this position I would need to find care for James and that is not something that I want to do.  In 2 years when he is in Kindergarten maybe but not now.

Patience was rewarded, also the test of following through.  I had taken a photography class through UW-Extension and posted my assignments on Facebook.  Between those posts and talking to another mom at the park I had 2 job possibilities for photography shoots.  The first didn’t work with our schedule which was frustrating and the second is still out there when I am ready.  I wondered if this was telling me something but waited.  When we returned from vacation I had received  a letter from The New York Institute of Photography with an offer for a deal on tuition if I singed up before my birthday.  Now I knew it.  So for my birthday(and Christmas) this year from my dear hubby and my parents, I am going to be getting the tuition to go back to school online!

I am so excited.  I have 2 other jobs lined up as well.  Now I need to come up with a name and cost sheet so I can study hard and really make this happen.  Any suggestions out there?
