Alana posted that she was going from 6th grade to 4th grade - as an educator. (It's more frightening to go from 4th to 6th and have the same kids again later on!) She is amazing in whatever capacity she is in. She continually changes the lives of children by showing them all of the millions of things they can learn if they apply themselves, then she flashes that smile of confidence and they go out and do just that. She is brilliant in everyway and I say to her decision, "Lucky Kids, Lucky Team". Yesterday, I realized that I need to go back to school. To MOM University. Been balancing on the edge of many choices lately and the rocks below are falling out beneath me on the cliff. There has to be classes out there on 'How to keep your nose out of your children's business' courses 101 through 501. 'Getting your heartfelt thoughts across without making them actually cry in Costa Veda' upper level courses with pre-requisites required. And I would need to take multiple courses on, "Surviving the 'wings to fly' because you know that they're going to do just that" acaemic challenges offered in mulitple courses. I had my 12th or so such mid term yesterday out of many more to come and I failed profusely. I'm still trying to find a bookstore that sells the basics in parenting children. I did find however that a course called "Laying Low" was available and I signed up right away. Although I have felt that I have lifted many weights in my weight training courses over the years, I still don't quite know how to lift my heavy heart. Or fix the one I broke.
