Today was my first day on adoption leave. Wow! What a strange feeling. To understand how I came to be in this position and the journey I have travelled you will need to read my other blog. My child hasn't actually arrived yet and I will be documenting the final steps of the process my other blog but I wanted to start this blog today.
I am at the start of what is planned to be a year's adoption leave. Being at home with my child is a dream I have always had and I can't believe that I have finally got to this point. I set up this blog a while ago as I knew that there would be a time when I would want to write but I wasn't sure when.
I have been writing my other blog for about 2 years and it has been immensely helpful in my struggle with infertility. It has played a key role in my healing and I have rediscovered my passion for writing!
I am at the start of a completely new chapter of my life. The most obvious change is the role of the motherhood but I genuinely believe that this year is going to bring other changes which I can't see yet. It seems fitting that as I transistion to a new season in my life that I start posting on this blog.
This blog will not just focus on motherhood although as this will now be a key aspect of my life - it will definitely feature in my posts. However, this blog is going to be about my life in general with a particular focus on the process of discovering more about Cece (me!).
God has been revealing so much to me about myself over the last few years that I have often been left speechless. Each day God is revealing more of who I am, who I'm called to be and helping me to fall in love with being Cece. I haven't always enjoyed being Cece - in fact there have been times when I've quite openly wished to be someone else, but God has been slowly renewing my mind and helping me to see that I am fearfully and wonderfully made by Him!
So I invite you to join me on the journey of "Finding Cece" - who knows you may discover more about yourself along the way as well!
