Kindergarten Registration...

Is Monday, May 7th---And I don't wanna send my baby to big school!!!
This is part of the reason I wanted to homeschool---so I could keep him
 a little longer. :) Which is kinda selfish, but....I worked in the school
 and know what kinda heathen kids sometimes go there. I just pray
Trip will be a positive influence, rather than being negatively influenced.
 He wants to go to school, and he'll be one of the older ones there, and
he's a really strong learner---so I'm letting him go. "Letting him go"
and I know it won't be the last time. Starting new chapters is scary,
sometimes.

I almost feel like God is giving us the new baby to give me someone
else to worry about, so I don't focus it all on my Tripper going to
Kindergarten, and Genevieve going to preschool---He knows I'll go
crazy without a little one at home. lol. Maybe! Or maybe He just saw
the perfect timing, when we didn't! Oh geez, at first I was upset---
What in the world are we gonna do with a new baby?!---
and then things just started falling into place!
See---I'm trying to change the subject so I don't have to focus on
sending my baby into the big, big world. I'm a sappy sentimental lunatic.
Just thought I'd share!! :)

Reviving the Writer

... Deciding to revive a once-lost memory is intimidating. The will to bare your thoughts, sometimes unedited, for public viewing, conjures images of hiding behind my mother's dress at church -just to get a good peek at things before edging into view.  If only writing gave us at least that safety net.  A conversation with a friend inspired this post, a decade after shutting down and retreating to small blurbs on social media.  I asked why she hasn't 'written that book.' You know, when judging others, you're just asking to be judged yourself--and our toughest judge typically is our own inner voice. Henceforth, I have determined that on this day, in order to practice what I speak, in absolute protest against my tendency to imposter syndrome, I'll be writing again.  It isn't that I stopped communicating but I stopped sharing my thoughts so openly.  I'll update the happenings of the past decade and plan a fresh look to this space.  Everchanging, Kristen

Trip called 9-1-1.....

Current mood: shocked Category: Life My son called 9-1-1 today....Yep, he did! I was in my room, on the phone with my mom and Trip runs in with the other line and says "here Momma....." The other line:: "Hello, this is 9-1-1 what is your emergency?" me:: "excuse me?" Trip:: "Genna did it." me:: "What? No way. I'm so sorry. No, there is no emergency....etc....." Turns out, Trip did call.....because Genna-Clair supposedly told him to....I doubt she even knows what 9-1-1 is. Trip does because we studied it in our preschool curriculum. But he also knows when it should be used. I'm pretty sure he didn't think it was real...or that it would go through. Well, the police officer came and asked "who the culprit was"-his words- Trips eyes got watery and he was thoroughly embarrased. We talked about who 9-1-1 is for, how and when it should be used, and why it was not okay for Trip to call today. I think he got it. ~sigh~ T...
