I Made It!

Finally!

It's been two years since I decided to finish my master's degree. Last week I walked across the stage at graduation!

My family was there. No boyfriend. No significant other. And I'm okay with that.

I did it! Without a man! OK, I guess you could count my dad since he did babysit while I went to class. And if you are reading this, know that you can do it too!

For too long, I've looked for someone else to complete my life. The only constant source of love and support has been God.

These last two years I attempted to date in between going to class and taking care of my kids. I've seen a few moments of high, but there's also been lots of lows by being let down repeatedly by bad choices. Really, I let myself down. I made the choice to pursue something with them, even if only for a short time.

I think I've finally made peace with being alone.

Would I like to meet someone and have this relationship I've been longing for? Of course! 

But God's going to have to drop him in my lap. 

Until then, I'm going to focus on my new job coming up in the fall and spending time with my children.
