2022 update

I'm enjoying summer thus far. Lots of camping and daily outings. Kids are having fun. 

I have become a huge fan of yoga. Its changed my life. I go several times a week and meditate as often as possible.  It's dulled my anxiety to a manageable level. I have been finding connections with new people and making amazing friends who are like minded and lovely.  I feel changes coming for me that are scary but will be good. I feel like i have grown a lot. Kindness is my favourite thing. I strive to be kind to everyone because thats what i need from people. I think yoga and meditation are helping me to see the good in everyone but also realizing that not everyone has a permanent place in my life.  I am enjoying my new adventure.

Being a mom is hard. I am exhausted all the time. Trying to make everyone happy all the time is so difficult. I struggle a lot but i am so grateful for these little people. I'm trying my best to be everything they need me to be and to make sure they turn out to be kind loving people.  

Nick has decided to not play hockey this year and instead try a new adventure in martial arts. I am actually really sad he wont be playing but am excited for him to find a sport he loves. Everyone else wants to play. He is being tested for ASD and hearing issues with his right ear. He has some struggles but has a big heart and is a sweety.  

William has been diagnosed with adhd inattentive and after years of struggling in school is finally on a dose of medication that is helping him focus and excel! He is doing great.

Benjamin has been doing well in school.  He procrastinates like i always did but academics come easily to him. He loves baseball and while they are all playing this year, he loves it the most.

Elizabeth is in her first year of tball and is having fun! She starts school in the fall and that makes me so sad. She is my little bestie. She is so ready for it though.

And for Brian, the only person reading this "Yeah baby, yeah."  From your favourite movie. Also, you're my best friend and i love you and I am proud of you and you're going to be ok. Your love of fish is a bit much though. 😬 thanks for being a golden girl with me.
