The times they are a-changin'

I have started my intense amount of reading for my first grad school class. Wow, I just got excited to say that. Ha - I am officially a grad student! That is change number one.

Change number two: I am taking some time off from the Museum to head back to Indiana and help take care of Reese. I am very excited about being able to spend this time with her, especially during this time in her life when she is changing so rapidly.

I just read a chapter in Rethinking Information Work (I know sounds boring but I am loving it - dork!) that talked all about change. I know it was talking about professionally I need to be ready for change to be a constant but I couldn't help thinking of it personally right now. It took me moving to Arizona to realize that any decision you make in your life cannot be wrong, because once you have made the decision it has become your life and your life cannot be wrong. That sounds confusing but I feel like I spend a lot of time trying not to make the wrong decisions but there are no wrong decisions. There is your life and maybe it isn't what you planned but it has made you who you are and I like who I have become.

New chapters are beginning and I was super nervous when I got back to Phoenix about everything changing but I think I am ready to be excited now. How can I not be excited about spending time with this little girl?
