Working in radio for the last year had its perks. I met a lot of new people and made a really good friend thanks to my time there. It showed me what I *thought* I might have been missing since leaving 10 years ago, showed my kids how "cool" their mom can be and gave me an outlet when I lost my dad back in May, and for that, I am truly thankful. It also showed me that everything I could ever actually want or need, along with the most important work I will ever do, is at home.
Losing my dad taught me a lot, mainly, it taught me just how valuable and precious time is and that where (and how) you spend it, matters. My dad used to tell me (frequently) "your kids are only this age once" - and he's right, so if nothing else, I want to make sure I spend my time with them wisely. My family deserves my full attention and the best of me, which is why you won't be hearing me in the mornings anymore. I resigned several weeks ago, but actually letting go took longer than expected. As of today, I've officially stepped away and I'm looking forward to what's in store for this next season.
I want you to know that whether we ever actually talked and met or not, I prayed every morning to have the right words, the right tone, and the right attitude to be able to bring a bit of joy to your days. I hope I was able to do that.
Thank you so much for listening!
(& side note.. my kids think I'm even "cooler" now. 😎)
