Confession Session & Good Thoughts Thursday

Re: Confession Session & Good Thoughts Thursday

  • Confession: We have a giant playdate for all the kids at DD's preschool today at a local playground. While I am excited for my daughter to hopefully meet new friends, I am a bit anxious because most of the kids in the 4s class attended last year, and their parents seem a bit clique-ish... Nothing like trying to get into an established group while also having to chase my 2yo DS. It's part of the reason I'm still on the fence about attending next week's PTO meeting.

    Good Thoughts: to my mom's extended family, as we say goodbye to a 24yo cousin, niece, sister, daughter, granddaughter who was taken too soon. While I wasn't close to her, specifically, my heart breaks for her closest family and friends.

  • My confession is similar to above.  I joined a moms group with the hopes of making new friends with children because none of our friends have them.  There is a some cliques so it's been hard.  There is a get together today, but I just don't know if it's worth chasing my 2yo twins around a field.

    Good thoughts to anyone that needs them.

  • Confession: I want to go home right now and crawl into bed and not wake up until 10 tomorrow. Maybe 11. I am tired, and we're only 48 hours past DH's hernia repair. Really hoping we have all his meds sorted out and that DS will cooperate and sleep better tonight so I don't fall asleep at my desk tomorrow.

    Good thoughts: to all that need them. Hope everyone is adjusting well to the new school year!

  • Thanks alicia, I was out with Ben for his 4 year well visit ACK! 

    Good thoughts: to Alicia's family, to Amy and fam that DH feels better soon and the little one sleeps,  to everyone who needs it for health, wealth, jobs, money, babies, etc. 

    Confession: I have work to do this afternoon but extended my pediatrician-lunch-errands with Ben by like 90 minutes because I was having too much fun with just my little man.  Oh well. Tomorrow is another day.

    Confession: vacation was awesome but I'm happy to have had a few kid free days this week. And now I am back to wanting to be a SAHM b/c I don't want to worry about work and kids. Just kids. *sigh*

    Confession: therapy is the best thing I've ever done. WTF took me so long?

  • Confession: I shouldn't have been worried about today. My kids both did great, and had fun with the other kids. And, I had a few nice conversations with other parents, and am looking forward to next week's PTO meeting now! We left when a group of bigger kids arrived and started playing tag on the playground equipment, making it a bit less safe for the little ones.

  • Confession:  my kids did great too.  they didn't run away and stayed together, so it was a great day.  Fingers crossed today goes just as well, we're off to the zoo.
