So thankful.

LONG POST:)

So any of you who know me well, know that sometimes I make quick decisions and then often regret certain things. Well, I did it again this time. It was no wonder that when I originally decided to leave Carter's it was a hard decision for me. I actually cried about it. (I know, I am a baby). Don't get me wrong, photography is my love, and my passion, but Carter's is where my little second family is.

I have really missed my time away from the people I worked with as well as the company as a whole. When I left there, they told me I would always have a home there and I had hoped that if I thought I had made the wrong decison that the door would always be open.

We found out last week that Derk got his old job back as a buyer. NO MORE MALL!!! So we were thrilled. Along with it came no more nights and weekends. Which was one factor I had taken into consideration before quitting because when you have 2 people working retail hours, you NEVER see each other.

So with all that being said...

I went to Carters today, and kiddingly said, "you guys hiring?", they said, "why, you looking for a job?" and I said "yes I am :)" They held out their hand to shake mine and said "you're hired!" Just what I had hoped to hear.

So after stressing out about leaving in the first place, now I know this is the right decision.

I still plan on doing photography, although it will have to be limited so I do not overdue myself. I decided that why should I give up 2 things I love. Carters and Photography when I can have both.

Someone asked me the other day what I was going to do when my girls were older and both in school, and I said well go back to work of course. They said, oh you aren't going to do the photography thing? I had never planned on making a career out of it, it was always just a hobby and something I loved doing. I would however, see myself in 5-6 years when the timing is right, as a part time manager with carter's.

I am so thankful that I was able to change my decision:) You just never know!
