Work, Work, Work...

In October I decided to start working by selling Discovery Toys. Well, I don't know if work is the right word- I pretty much just have parties when people want them so I only work once every couple of weeks. At the same time my cousin Deanne called me to see if I could watch her daughter a couple of times a week. This was odd because before this I had only talked to Deanne once before in my life because she is quite a bit older than me- but it has been a great blessing. Her daughter Grace is Emma's age and they play together two mornings a week before I drop Grace off at preschool. It has been interesting that I now have two jobs but I don't feel like I ever actually work. I guess this is the best way to work without actually working. Well, now I have a third job to add to the list of extra jobs that aren't really work. I am now the Saratoga Springs City Historian. I will be compiling a history of the city and keeping a record of the growth and activities of the city. I am really excited about this new opportunity because it is something that I enjoy doing and I can do from home while Andy works on homework all night. I guess I am posting this because it is Sunday and I am feeling grateful for all of the opportunities I have been given to earn money, but not take away from my family. I like the idea of being able to contribute financially to the family- even if it isn't very much. It is nice to be able to put away a little money each month for savings.
