Taking Leaps

A little while back, I mentioned some new directions and changes I'm contemplating. Well, I'm still here thinking about it all... One thing about me is that it's really hard for me to take the leap. I wasn't always this way. I've done some pretty gutsy things in my life that required a whole lot of faith (or perhaps stupidity in some instances...). In any case, I'm finding that I'm really needing to dig down deep and find some courage. 

One thing I've been considering is taking a graduate class and work towards adding a speciality to my master's degree. The degree I haven't really used since waving goodbye at the end of the school year to my classroom in Boston while I prepared for my first baby. 

I've got this good thing going here, my sewing design business is more than I could ever have hoped for. It's amazing really, I feel so blessed. But you know, I've got this little itch for teaching again. My boys have long become used to mom's 'learning time,' and I still hoard teaching supplies like it's going out of style. But I just can't seem to take that leap, muster up some courage, & click that little button to register. 

So, even though I don't see my business fading anytime soon, I still am stuck with a lot of uncertainties. But one thing I do know is that each day is calling for a whole lot of bravery.
