I labeled this post life changes because we are going through
some biggies in our family this year. First, Erik started Kindergarten this Fall. We (and by we I mean I) wasn't sure if he was ready. He's considered young (because a lot of people start their boys at age 6) and he's immature (yes I fully admit it), but academically was on par with where he was suppose to be so we figured why not. He is enjoying Kindergarten even though he is having some emotional issues like not paying attention or not following directions but what 5 year old does. I've been stressing about it and all my friends and family tell me to relax, not to worry, he's got time. That is easy for them to say, they either have kindergateners who are ready or don't have any at all. I know they care about me and are just trying to help. I really should listen to them and I'm trying but it's hard.The other big life change is that I'm pregnant. Most of you reading this probably already know that. I don't do well with change and now I'm going to have a 2 year old and an infant in a matter of months. What am I going to do???? Well I'm going to have a 2 year old and an infant is what! I will take each day one at a time and thankfully have a full set of friends within walking distance who are willing to drop what they are doing and help a neurotic freak like myself. How did I get so lucky to have such wonderful friends. I'm still trying to figure that out, but until I do I will just enjoy the richess of people who truely care about me. A friend asked me last night "is Sarah ready for the baby?" I didn't think she had a clue and still don't however I did get a little glimps into the future when someone else tried to sit in HER rocking chair. Oh man, she DID NOT like that, so it will be interesting to see how she reacts to all of this.
