Its been exhausting yet amazing all at the same time! Yeah, I'm going to take a moment and be all mushy and whatnot...there is much to be thankful for and sometimes you just need to sit for a moment, focus on all the good and put it all in writing.
I truly do adore teaching my 1st graders - I'm so thankful I've been put where I have!
And thankful doesn't even begin to describe my gratitude toward my gift of sewing. During a very tough financial time, my sewing business is helping to keep our household afloat.
We got news this week that we qualify for a refinance that will drop our mortgage payment by over $100/month!!
My main man (hubby) has really helped this week as I've been working longer shifts at work. He even took the toddler to her shot appointment today! Those are *the* worst appointments as parents and he took on the task voluntarily and very willingly. Not to mention all the dishes and laundry he's done this week, breakfasts he's cooked, and all that. ;0) Thanks love!
L's been healthy for over a week now!!! Woot! We went through a good 2 months of constant ear infection, stomach flu and so on. Poor kid lost weight and was just a perpetual crank ;P. Now she's back to her usual spunky, lively and lovely little self!
P had his reading assessments today and JUMPED an entire 4 levels in reading! I'm so proud of the little man for working so hard!
O had ALL assignments in school turned in *on time* this week (something that has been a horrible issue). He really is working so hard to become a responsible kid!
A got her little non-morning-loving buns out of bed the first time I asked her today! Normally its near death threat arguing to get her dressed and ready for school. She took the complete initiative today and I'm beyond impressed. You go little lady!
This week has been great all in all, even with the bouts of hair pulling behavior, an unexpected bill, and all that can bring you down. Always remember to try to find the positives!
