Finding a new normal is something we all hate doing.
Yesterday I came home to find out that my moms new job had moved her from part-time to full-time. This means that she'll have to work pretty much every night and 2 Sundays, then 1 off. This is going to be hard for us because we've already had to get used to a new normal with her schedule and just as we started getting into that habit...it changes again.
This means now 4 of 5 of us have jobs, 3 of us have school to balance, my youngest sister just decided to pull herself out of volleyball because of a knee injury and has to have therapy. I'm learning to live with some of my own physical problems, my dad is dealing with the fact he's getting older and its harder for him to do his job. I'm starting being tutored in math tonight, so that will take me out of the house for some nights.
My parents lead the music in our church, so that means now I will be required to step in for my mom on most Sundays, which is something I'm a little scared to do. I don't think my piano skills are up to par in order to do it...but there isn't much choice.
Our normal is going to be changing a lot in the months to come. And honestly I don't like it. No one likes change, and especially not ones that come so close together. So we go, embarking on this new normal.
~Matthew 28:20- Be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.~
