Filled with Joy

Last week I ended my teacher career and experienced MANY different emotions. I'm sad that that chapter in my life has ended, but when I woke up this morning and walked into Gavin's room and he was standing up on the edge of his bed smiling (as if he was waiting for me) my eyes quickly filled with tears... I realized that I have officially walked into my new role as a stay at home mom. Never again do I have to leave Gavin to go to work-- it's the two of us day in and day out!! I'm really excited to hang out with him and we have lots of things planed for the summer!!! As I was changing his diaper he had the biggest grin on his face and made a look with his eyes as if he was saying, "Mom, this is going to be great!!"

Along with my busy week last week- my brother and his wife welcomed a baby boy-- David Lawson Williams. He was 5lbs 4 oz and 19in long. He is TINY!! but PRECIOUS!! He has very distinct features and looks like his mom!!
