Pulling my hair out....

Blogging about Abby this past week maybe a struggle. I try to keep these upbeat, short, and positive. This past week has not been any of those things. My daughter is smart, intelligent, witty, and full of charisma. She can use those traits for good or evil. For example last summer I had an interview for a family for my home daycare. While I was interviewing I set out large card board boxes for the kids to play with, to color, to climb in, etc. While I was touring Abby took one of the boxes, climbed the stairs, hopped into the box, and slid down. Needless to say that family decided to go somewhere else. This past week was full of such antics. Abby in return has spent alt of time in her room "reflecting."

and I have been doing a lot of this....


Now some news not so Abby related. I will be returning to school this fall (Metro State - of course!) to pursue a Marketing degree. Even though I love kids, I have decided when Jack , cstarts school I would like to enter the world of Advertising. I have a creative side that I would like to explore further.

Also Charlie was offered a full time police officer position with the City of Jordan. He will be leaving his job at Target and his job with the City of Belle Plaine. We are very excited. We will not be moving any time soon. We have considered the possible move to the Southwest Suburbs if this move to JPD ends up being the place Charlie wants to complete his career. But for now Charlie does not mind the commute and I will be important for me to live near school.

One last announcement of sorts, We have decided to send Abby to Pope John Paul II for Kindergarten. After School Information Fairs, Tours, and talking to other parents; we have decided that this is the best School for Abby. She is excited that she will get to have spanish class 2 days a week because than she can talk like Dora. She also gets to celebrate Christmas, which is what she tells everyone when they ask about her new school.
