Being a SAHM, you often find yourself ripping and running for EVERYONE! What you quickly realize is that you NEVER have time for yourself, or time to accomplish goals that you would like to accomplish! Its hard…
Well I know I have talked about a few things having me down lately but I have found two things that have really made me happy in the last week!!!
The first is Emma, she will walk along furniture and holding on but she wont let go! And I have come to the understanding that she will do it in her own time, so dont rush her! But what we have noticed is that she isnt as strong on her right side as she is her left side (from our perspective as well as the occupational therapist perspective)…So I started doing different exercises with her but I also started researching the gym for kids! And I came across The Little Gym…I dont know if you have heard of them but basically its a place that helps develops your child’s learning and physical development. We went to our first class last week and her director sent me this video of her!

Go Emma! Go Emma!!!
So I will be taking her to these classes weekly! And I am super excited about it! She had so much fun!!! It gave her a chance to be around other children as well as learn some new skills and just play! She passed out for a couple hours after class!!! And not to mention is she fearless…they tried all kinds of new things and she was “Down for Whateva” LOL!!!
Darrick and I loved the fact that she loved these classes! It gives her a chance to have additional therapy, without the copays and stuff! Thank You Jesus!!!
The second thing I have going on is Mommy Bible Study!!! Now I must admit I didnt know what to expect going in…I mean you hear so much about Mommy groups, so I was a little nervous! OMG this was the best idea ever…(Thanks to My Sister) who basically bullied me into going! She signed me up, told me where to go and basically harassed me until I went. I missed the first class due to my tooth ache, but I made it this week and I CANT WAIT until next week!
We sat around and talked and it was great to know I am not the only SAHM with the feelings I have been having! I tell you God has really been showing out on me lately! HA!!! He basically said I’m going to get you out of this funk you are in…and I am so grateful!!!
We started the discussion with our book…
I have started reading and I LOVE it! Jill Savage hits the nail on the head with Mommy feelings! And she relates it back to the Bible. But what I LOVE about it is that it relates real life to scriptures and feelings…AMAZING!!!
Okay so…lets just say this has been of new things and I am excited!
