Family

Let me start off by saying that I am feeling a little down at this very moment, but I promise to end on a positive note. I am a little stressed with classes, just overwhelmed with life, but in a good way. Second I am just in one of those sad moments where I remember the bridges burned 2 years ago...and honestly with some of my extended family I feel as though an outsider looking in.

I never felt like I really belonged with them, but to be exiled and shunned was a new level. Things were said that can never be taken back, which is unfortunate. Honestly, most of the time I am okay with it. I am so consumed with my kids and our life that I forget about those people who would occasionally dance into our lives every few months, but no longer care to... Today is just one of those days where I remember.

But enough dwelling on things I can not change!

To the happy news! Aurora and Johnny start soccer this week, got their gear and cant wait to go. Richard, their amazing step dad, will be assistant coach of Aurora's team! This man rocks, let me tell you, I am pretty darn fond of him ;) He wins the award for worlds best husband and step dad (at least in my book).

I received word that my degree application has finally been approved and processed. I officially have an Associates of Math and Science! Woot! On another front I am toying with the idea of double majoring in Chemistry and anthro..... at the very least minoring in anthro. I enjoy it and even considered it as a major at one point, but after doing a little digging about the future with that degree I decided to go another route.

Finally, we recently had family pictures taken and I am in LOVE with how they turned out. Check out this awesome photog, Michelle Voigt... She is amazing :)
