last yr we stopped math 1/2 way through a lesson. nate wasnt grasping the concept, he was frustrated, i was frustrated so i packed the book away until last week. i decided to start slowly back into math and for fun tried teaching him the concept with cards that i made when he was in k. guess what? after 1 day, he GOT it! i was so excited i pulled the text book out and away he went
i SO needed this, ESP this morning. i needed some encouragement SO bad, ill be honest, i was in tears most of the morning, nothing in particular was wrong i was just overwhelmed with everything, life, laundry, cooking, the house, school....starting my 1st of 3 3-4 HR dentist visits tomorrow (thats a whole other blog post) there was no flow this am, life happens, constant interruptions from trying to get things done, taking care of everyone's needs and chris too. i felt deflated, upset, and just held my baby girl and bawled. some days are just like this.
as i sat nate down to attempt school for the 3rd time, i was SO happy that he got the math! then he leaned over and said "i love you mom" and went back to work singing the song "my god is an awesome god"
those little moments are the ones that i wipe the tears and keep doing what im doing
am i weak for feeling this way? maybe. but im gonna be honest and share the good and the bad.
i wouldnt trade anything for it thou!
i just keep telling myself that a week from now, today isnt going to matter. and this time next yr jo will be walking
sob sob
