I've realized my calling ...

....is teenagers. And not little kid teenagers. Like 16-26 year olds. I love them. 

When we did the trip to see Liberty University, John said to me via phone that he was proud of me. That this was my wheelhouse. 

And I realized, he's right. I love it. That's the age I used to teach many moons ago. This is the age I used to coach. I love these kiddos. I just find the precipice of adulthood and seeking the Lord and striving to find his calling to be SO fun. 

I'm mentoring Gabe and Maryah a bit. I just love seeing them begin to create a life together. I love being able to help them to do that. It's a ton of fun. 

I realized that I had a hard middle school life, but generally, high school and college was pretty pleasant for me with people in my life. And so, those memories are GOOD and POSITIVE. 

Sometimes, in the midst of being a mom, we can forget where our wheelhouse actually is. It's important to remember what makes us who we are and the things we love doing.
