asher goes to preschool!

We got up and ready, ate breakfast, took our vitamins and out the door we went! Off to preschool at HCC in Churchville.

Asher was ecstatic that the day he's been asking about for the last 6 months had finally arrived! Then I told him I was going to stay with him for class today. That brought his spirits down a little but I assured him it was only for today.
Our 'walking into preschool on the first day' photo had no smiles but a very solemn look. I think he was a little nervous about school.


As soon as we walked into his classroom off he went to play with his new friends!

I love love love his teacher, Mrs Joan. She's wonderful with kids and parents alike, she obviously loves her job and puts a lot of effort into it. Everything they will be doing at preschool are all the things Asher loves to do!
Today we sang songs, read stories, did a fire drill, posted the weather, the date, pledged allegiance and even did the hokey pokey! Asher is going to love his preschool. Already he can't wait to go back and was disappointed when it was over.

Whom Shall I Fear?

I have been learning a lot about myself over the last 6 months through the sermons at church, it's amazing what is revealed when you are genuinely challenged! Some things I knew, like I worry too much. Other things I had no idea, that I fear man more than God. "And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both body and soul in hell." Matthew 10:28 As Pastor Chad said, "Jesus is NOT your homeboy." Over the last week I've found myself wondering what others would think of something I had to share and how it would be received. It made me very aware of how much I care what others think. In our world we are taught to be politically correct, don't offend anyone. But Jesus was very offensive, we are supposed to be like Jesus. Standing up for what is right regardless of what people think. If we could all do that it would be a different world.

Feeling sentimental and Making a Mess!

What have I been up to? See the title of this post.. Last week was Asher's last few days of Kindergarten. I finally understand why all the moms feel all the feels those last few days their babies are in school. Not only was my baby becoming a FIRST GRADER (I'm way too young to have a first grader, for serious) but they were his last days in public school. We're HOMESCHOOLING for first grade and beyond! I am excited and nervous to start on this journey, we enjoyed our public school experience for the most part and I know homeschooling is going to be a lot on me but it's what's right for us :) About the mess making part, I've gotten back into my quilting projects and LOVING it. It turns out I'm not the only one, I have a few orders from friends for their own "Made with Love" quilts! I get excited all over again each time I purchase new fabric.. So I buy a little at a time to keep myself going ;) Finding complimentary fabric for some I already have g...

The Hard Part

Genevieve Taylor Labor finally started on Thursday 9/22 after a few false alarms over the previous weeks where I had regular yet inconsistent contractions for hours. I went to bed feeling them but had experienced that so many times before I didn’t think it was real, by 3am I couldn’t sleep through them anymore so I grabbed my phone to time them and see if there was any pattern, They were 3-5 minutes apart and a minute long but the intensity of them was still fairly mild. I got up and moved around, drank some water, ate some eggs and the contractions changed but didn’t stop. I decided to give my midwives a heads up as I was also experiencing some bleeding. Because of the bleeding they decided to come over and check things out around 6am. It was so exciting, it seemed the baby was finally coming! As I watched them set up all the supplies in my room, Tim calling into work to let them know he wouldn’t be in and contractions growing stronger it seemed my baby would be there within the day! ...
