I love peanut butter!

Everyday for the past week I have had an apple with peanut butter for breakfast...YUM! I think I could probably eat a whole jar of peanut butter all by myself! Ha!

So for more serious talk...a couple of posts ago I discussed Justin and his job situation. Right now, he is so fed up with his job and he has a strong yearning to finish school and get a promising career, but when he comes home from work, he can't even think about sitting down to do homework because of how exhausted he is. So that brings us to our next dilemma...what do we do about his job and getting him back into school? He has gotten advice from many trustworthy people in the church and gotten opinions from his family and friends. Right now, he is seriously considering going Active Duty Army. There are many benefits (and don't worry, he didn't decide this on his own) from being able to go to school while in the army and getting it 100% paid for, great health insurance for both of us, he will be in GREAT physical shape which he has been wanting to do since he graduated, and many more. With the benefits for him come benefits for me as well, such as the adventure that I have been wanting to take--just getting up and moving somewhere...warm preferrably...if I have to go through another Arkansas winter...it may kill me.
So, here starts our adventure. I know that if this is for sure what he decides to do, I will have a great support system including my family and some great friends who have been through what I may have to go through. What really bursts my bubble is that when I tell people what we may be doing, they look at me and talk to me like this is the dumbest decision that we could make, when really what I need right now is people to support me and my husband because this ISN'T an easy decision and if they are truly my friends then they would support us instead of try to make me feel bad about this decision. Don't get me wrong, I value honesty, but talking to me like I am stupid and honesty are completely different. I have already shed tears over the thought of being away from him for a short period of time and we haven't even decided yet but because this is a very real situation and a very real possibility, I need all the help I can get.

So for those of you who didn't already know about this contemplation...SURPRISE...and for those of you who we have told and discussed this with...thank you for your support and prayers and I hope that we can get more support as we solidify this decision if that's what we decide to do.

On a happier note, in light of mother's day which was last week I wanted to share that I have the BEST mom that anyone could ask for. She supports me in everything and I could tell her that we are moving to China and she would say, "When can we come visit?" Without her, I would definitely not be where I am today. I love you, Mommy!!
Also, could I be lucky enough to have the best Mother-in-law?? Well, God has definitely blessed me with one. She is so great and I know I could go to her with anything! She also supports us 100% with anything that we do and I love her to pieces.
And last but DEFINITELY not least is my Nana. I am so blessed to have a "grandma" who has been in my life since before I can even remember. She is there for me through thick and thin and I think that he best quality (besides loving me no matter what) is that she is honest and she always has been. I love that I can go to her with a situation and if she thinks it's a bad idea--she will tell me and I value that.

Well I guess that's all for now!
Thanks for reading!
