{ Wondering Wednesday }

For the lack of any other better title for today. Couldn't really think about what I wanted to write about just alot of random thoughts so I'll point form them and get it out there:


  1. So first why can't I keep my mouth shut when I go to our parent preschool I swear its like I don't get out enough. We started back today and the sarcasm just jumps out its like I can't even help it like for example : Hi my name is so so and I have 2 kids, hi my name is so so and I have 3 kids me I go : Hi my name is Christal and I'm an alcoholic (totally joking of course but it was so somber and I got a good laugh ha ha. But sometimes I can't even stop it, it just comes out. I'm so retarded. Like where did that come from! But it was a good class met lots of new people so it should be fun. Sometimes we have our same class and same group we aren't clique but its just that we've been together for years and now new people are coming in, but I think we have a good class should be fun. So we have to sign up for a snack to bring for the moms and then sign up to teach a class they are about 40 minutes long- anyway I've gotten away with NEVER doing a class and today somebody said they wanted me to share our adoption stories so now I'm doing a class. I've done it quite a few times so it shouldn't be hard but I'll probably cry then they will see the REAL me well not the real me cause I am who I am but you know what I mean. Anyway so that will be fun I guess, actually there is a birth mother in our class too who said she'd do the class with me and tell her story too. So it should be good its in Feb but I'm already nervous! Why who knows.

  2. Why do sometimes in life you find something out that scares you and its the only thing you can think about while you wait until you know for sure and then you wonder how it will determine how the next few months or longer will play out. Like a secret you know but don't want to tell anyone cause its probably nothing and you'd feel stupid but its constantly on your mind??

  3. Why am I so tired lately??

  4. How do I get my 6 year old to quite picking fights in the morning or yelling at his brother and sister? I know he feels like he has nowhere to go in the house that is his own space (heck I feel like that too sometimes) lately he seems like he wants to fight or disobey rules like he is pushing the limits is it normal for a six year old?? He is usually the biggest sweetheart and helper ever so it just kind of started lately. Any ideas??


I think those are the biggies just random thought or rather questions? But a post isn't a post without a picture so here is random!! I'm cold and can't wait for spring and summer so thought I'd share a picture of my awesome tan line from summer (I had a three month Florida start this year though so I was pretty proud of them!! ) SO what I'm saying is I'm ready for winter to be over! I'm COLD!! My feet really aren't as chubby as they look in this picture !!

Hey, thanks for your prayers. Clare is doing quite well tonight considering all her little body is dealing with. How are you guys doing? You are funny. I love the blog. Hope your day is less confusing tomorrow. I will call you when I get back to reschedule the party.

Oh man, you sound like me lately with all my bloggy vagueness. I had a crappy week last week, with an e-mail from our birthmom from our failed placement 2.5 years ago. Anyway, basically saying she wonders if she made the right decision in choosing to parent. I can't talk about it on my blog as she reads it, and I don't want to hurt her...but it hurts knowing she wonders the same things I do.

As for the six year old...this is a common occurrence. Think of it as Satan already starting to work in them. Knowing they are almost to the age of accountability or something. Not too sure, just hear of this happening a lot. Keep praying and helpig him, and hopefully in the end it works out. We can always blame it on the fact he is a boy too! Eish.

Anyway, love your words today. Thanks for sharing yourself!

Looks like the comment I left early didn't make it through. Sorry...don't know what happened to it. Anyway...I basically hope that you are okay! Sounds like you have a lot on your mind. I also thought that maybe your little guy just might be a little more perceptive that you might think....maybe he is feeling a little out of sorts cause his mommy is too. What works for me is....taking them on a mommy and child date. One on one. Talk to him about what he's doing great and ease into what maybe he's out of sorts about. Just a thought.
P.S. LOVE YOUR TAN lines! You have awesome pedicured feet. Too cute. I gotta get me some toe rings too.

I totally would have been on the floor laughing if I had been in your pre-school class. That is so funny! Maybe we have a similar sense of humor.
About the "secret" thing...my advice would be to pray to know that whatever happens that you will find comfort and peace in the Lord's will for you and whatever the situation is. It's hard to sit around and wait for things to shape your future. Sorry.
I don't have that much experience with 6 year olds but it could be a phase or it could be what Lynn said. Maybe you need some one on one time with him. I hope things go better for you. ~ big hugs ~
