Well, we’ve been hit with more snow and it seems the onslaught is not over, however, I want to remain optimistic. I’m finally feeling a bit done with the downside of things. Only a little but I’m moving forward to make things better. This includes a new site design and layout for Mom-Blog, a new business website, and again refocusing on the kids.
This is not easy because my dear Amelia has been struggling lately, and I’m working desperately not to worry but I’m still up at night sometimes. Amelia will be moving into Middle School at Seven Gen, which is in a new building. That also means a whole new staff, and someone told me that most of the kids in her current class are not going there so I don’t know what to make of that.
I am working hard to at least doubt that this will devastate her. I don’t really see any other schools that provide a good option for her, and while we’re at, as long as I’m losing sleep, I figured why not put FEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL on the list. I am proud of myself, however, that I stopped shy of freaking out over all the special ed college programs that we can in no way afford unless we win the lottery that we never play.
Zoe is good actually, not much progress, except one trip to the potty for me a few weeks back at Outback but a bit more talking. I’m over-thinking diet again – I want to get stricter but I don’t want to torture myself or them. I feel like i need to stretch what they eat but my to do list is too long.
Finally, we’ve had some nice times in with the kids. We desperately need a date and spring to come early but we’re all good for now. And to ca hct you up, somebody recently turned 11.
ELEVEN. How did that happen, and why is 11 worse than 10??
