Life is about to change for me at the end of July... something i am excited about but yet dreading at the same time. I was selected for a Physician Assistant Scholarship for the Air Force, sounds great right? Well i will be seperated from Jayson for 2 years and Ava for the first year. I am excited that i will get books tuition and a great education for free (and get a pay raise from what i am making now). But i will miss a year of my baby girls life... a YEAR!! And i am not sure how living without my hubby that i love so much will go. He makes me smile and laugh everyday, they both bring so much sunshine into my every day. Today was a depressing day, there were definitely some tears. BUT this is a ince in a lifetime opportunity and these sacrifices i make now will better our entire future, not to mention allow me to reach some of my personal goals that were set for myself 6 years ago (when i joined the Air Force as an enlisted Airman).
Sorry about the somewhat heavy post, i want this to be somewhere that i can be REAL and not but on a picture of a picture perfect life.
I have some pics of Ava's first Birthday Party... Next post will be some from Disney! So enjoy the pics and i am off to make some
pinwheels for my Thank You cards i have to make tonight. I am excited. Night!!
XOXO
