Okay, so here is a collection of my status posts on facebook over this past year. It flows pretty well and was pretty amazed by what I read. Read and enjoy.
“It’s not the load that breaks you down; it’s the way you carry it.” -Lena Horne We often think that admitting struggle is a sign of weakness, but we all struggle sometimes. We all get overwhelmed sometimes. We all need help sometimes. Acknowledging this is not a sign of weakness, but struggling alone is a choice to grow weak. Dear Friends, This will be a very different entry than what I usually write. This entry is really a request for help, ideas, suggestions, empathy, a show of love by offering anything useful to help me help my son with his separation anxiety. Let me share with you my situation... My son is 5 and has been going to preschool 4 days a week for 3 1/2 hours. The school he goes to is really a wonderful place. It is whimsical and small and community oriented. His teacher is the best. She is kind, compassionate, loving, and she loves what she does. I love her. He only has 9 kids in his class and there are at least 2 or 3 ad...
Okay, so it has been a while since my last post. It has been busy with friends coming in from out of town for a visit, a teacher training with Darren and Noah, another friend staying with me and my family during the training, and a surprise visit from my sister who lives in Denver. Even this weeks has been full. I taught on Sunday following the teacher training and it felt great. My Sunday group has really grown in size but also keeps growing together. It is a special class all because of the people. Anyway, I shared with them my experience and the realization I had at the end of the TT, which was my theme for the day. Let me share... During the training, I learned that I knew a lot but that there is still so much to learn. I got some great guidance from Noah during our group teaching sessions about just remembering to pause, breathe, and see if the directions are being received by the students. Also, just remembering to walk around in order to observe the room, the group ...
What you are looking at is a picture of , as Jason put it, our family's next big adventure. Yes, this is a picture of baby number 2 in utero at 12 weeks and 3 days with its little hand up near its face. Amazing isn't it?! It was such a relief to hear the baby's heartbeat yesterday and see that the baby is thriving and doing well. I felt like I was in a holding pattern with this pregnancy due to the fact that the last two have not been viable. I didn't want to get too excited for obvious reasons. Now that we have made it to this point, I feel like I can breathe a sigh of relief and let go into the experience. The risk of a miscarriage at 12 weeks with the baby being healthy is only 1 or 2% . The statistics are nice to read but the good feeling I have inside is an even better indicator of this being a happy, healthy pregnancy. It is so nice to actually be able to enjoy this experience now instead of feeling I am waiting to do s...
