Today I am grateful for our jobs. In a time when many people are without jobs, I am grateful for my job and for Brian's. I remember that when Bryson was in the 1st grade (and the school said I couldn't sit outside his classroom everyday waiting for him/making sure he was okay) that I was bored. I had never envisioned my life past being a mom and wife. But there was only so many times I could clean the house and we were going broke with all my shopping so I started looking for a new opportunity. I have always been really blessed to work the hours that my kids were at school so I was home when they got home and usually off when they are off.
Last year at this time, Brian started a new job with InData and he has loved every minute since. He is a valued contributor and he is held in high regard. His team depends on him and knows that he will do what he is asked to do. I am so proud of him and the accomplishments he has made and continues to make each day.
I have worked for The Boeing Company for the past 5 years and received a promotion this week. The promotion is one that I have applied for countless times but I recognize that timing is everything and getting the right person in the right job is key so I feel that this new job is the right opportunity for me and that I will be successful in it. I am super excited for the new adventure and I am grateful for the jobs that we have. They are one of my treasures.
