My friend, Sarah, and I made Liam's cake. Total, it took 11 hours to make this cake, but it was worth it. It turned out so cute!
Sweet friends
Me with my birthday boy. I love him so much!
I decided last week that since Liam is about to turn 3, I should try potty training him. So, I put him in underwear one day and he has done awesome! He has had a few accidents, but he has caught on so fast. I'm so proud of him! He is growing up so fast. It's hard to believe that my baby is almost 3.
Sarah and I have decided to take a cake decorating class in February. I'm so excited about it! Not only learning to decorate cakes but also just getting some girl time with a great friend each week!
I've been doing a lot of praying and have really felt the pull lately to go back to school. When I was first separated, a lot of people asked me if I was going to go back to school, and I honestly had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. But, for the past 6 months or so, I've finally figured out what I want to do and now I'm just ready to get school over with so I can do it! I plan on going back for my nutrition degree and becoming a nutritionist. It's something I'm passionate about. I want to help people get their lives healthy. I know it's not going to be easy, being a single mom, having a daycare during the day and trying to study and do classes online. But, I really feel like this is what I'm supposed to do, so I'm trying to trust that God will work out all the details so that I can actually accomplish this!
It's so nice to be doing things for myself now, finding out who I am and what I want to do with my life. I've really felt for the last several years that I'm just floating through life with really not purpose or no clue what I wanted my life to be. I feel like I'm starting to get a picture of it now. I'm ready for more security in my life and my boys' life. I'm excited to see what happens the next few months!
Happy 3rd Birthday to Liam! I can't believe he's 3 already. Cute cake! I am excited for you to take those cake classes. I've had so much fun myself with that in the last couple years. I definitely need to start thinking about potty training, too. I am so glad that you are finally taking the time to decide what you want to do with your future, and it sounds like you have some great plans. I'm happy to know you are more at peace than you were before :-) Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteThat cake looks amazing! I love the different colours on the inside too. Liam must have loved it. I am glad to hear that things are going so well. Good luck with going back to school. It must be so exciting to finally know what you want to do. Happy 3rd Birthday to Liam! :)
