Transition

This past year has been all about new life intersections.  What direction to turn?  Sometimes just wanting to turn around and go back the way you came. We, as a family, have being trying to recalibrate our inner compass in order to figure out if we want take a left or right at that intersection.  And sometimes those answers simply don't come as quick as we would like them to.

It is often frustrating not knowing the path.  But right now, for this moment, it feels liberating.  Like we are throwing the compass out the window and saying "Ah, to hell with it!  Let's ride this ride and see what happens."

Life is busy and full.  And while time is rushing by, I am doing my best to take mental snapshots of all of our fun moments...

• A little grin smiling back at me in the rear view mirror as we drive in to preschool and work.
• Kicking ass at my first ever board meeting presentation.
• A few precious moments of quiet at the end of the day before I crash into my pillow.
• Little B being so proud of herself as she masters the art of holding up only 3 fingers

I have no idea if this career track I am on will take off, but I am having fun with it.  I have no idea if we will stay in Fort Worth, but we are making friends anyways.  I have no idea where we will live in when our lease is up in the fall, but I am excited to explore the possibilities.  So much is up in the air right now.

But sometimes great beauty can be found in transition.
