Where to start? Family first! :) Everyone calls me Nicki. I'm 28. I was born and raised in Baltimore, MD. and moved to Georgia in 1995. I am married to a wonderful man...lucky me! Matthew is 28, born and raised in Milledgeville, Georgia. He's a Volunteer Firefighter for Putnam County as well. I have 2 children. Wynter is 10 and Joey is 7.
My quest into firefighting began shortly after our home burned down a few years ago. To be honest, I think I bordered obsession with the subject, I know my husband did. I began my training just a few short weeks ago at the end of September. I did not tell my children until 2 weeks ago. Boy were they suprised! I wanted to make sure that this was what I really wanted before I told them. So far so good. And at the same time, OMG this is not easy. I find myself pushing hard for every task I have to complete in the class.
At many times in these few weeks I have questioned myself. Do I really want this? Can I do this? Will I be good enough? I suppose I will continue to question every move I make from here on out.
I just hope and pray that my feelings about doing this are right and that God has chosen this path for me. I feel He has but I still question my own voice in it all.
Until later......
