One Proud Mommy today!

Last night looking through my daughters agenda I have an invite to todays school assembly. Says my daughters artwork is being recognized. I am so proud of her. I went (of course) and she stood up at the front of that room in front of all 5 grades and the parents that went and was grinning from ear to ear. She did a falling leaf with tissue paper on it to mimic more falling leafs. She then wetted it down to get a cool effect. (her words). Now it is on display in front of the principals office for the whole next month. Considering she just started at this school August 31 she was so composed at the assembly and presentation. First one she had ever seen or been part of.
Son today used words to display his displeasure at having to go to daycare. This is a huge improvement over the kicking, screaming, and fighting I have had all week. I was so proud of him using words to express his emotions. At just turned 3 it is hard for him to do.
So today I am a happy proud Mommy.

April 19 is a rough day

20 years ago today I miscarried a baby. I can imagine myself with a 20 year old running around. Maybe even a grandma, that is a rough thought. For years when I could not conceive I wondered if I was being punished for miscarrying my first. I was young, got pregnant in college, and was sick all the time. I had morning sickness 24 hours a day every single day, I lost a lot of weight. I was alone and I was scared. I went to bed one night feeling very ill, I woke up two days later in the hospital. I had hemarraged and been uncousious, and almost died. I miscarried in my fifth month. When I missed college some friends tried to reach me and couldn't so called my ex and he had the landlord let him in. It saved my life. I have always felt so guilty that I was just that little bit relieved that it had happened. I was so young, and on my own, and did not want a child raised the way that I had been raised. Feelings just all over the place. It hit me like a ton of bricks again w

Well I made it and I survived it

I am finally 40. Entering the prime of my life. I think it is all how you look at things. So if I look positive it will be postitive. This is the decade that is going to be about me. I had an adult decade on education, I had an adult decade on family, now I want one on me. Thanks Jenni for calling last night, I miss you and you are welcome to come back to Alberta and visit any time. I got the cutest birday card from Poncho with her original photography on it of a koala, I love it. I feel spoiled and loved and it is nice to feel that way. I got a cake sent to me at work yesterday, a balloon arrangement with a teddy bear and chocolates and some basic grey paper. A bunch of girls from SJ went together and organized it all. I feel so honoured to be counted as one of their friends. I got to talk to geminigirl (Carrie) yesterday as well, she is one of the sweetest people I know. Thanks for calling.
