There are all kinds of changes going on right now. We all know that the country is changing with its financial future, and the presidential election. This makes me nervous. Jake is changing jobs, but staying in the same field, and this makes me nervous. My kids grow older each and every day, and the world is getting harder and harder to live in; and while I am excited for them, this makes me nervous. I have always been a stress case. Anxiety is part of my every day life, and if I'm not worried about something, then I will make up something to be anxious about. But. . . . I don't have to make up anything right now, and I must admit, Iam kind of a mess. My husband is such a rock, and he attempts to keep me level headed. And, I can't show this weak side to my children, so I am dealing the best I can. I am exaggerating a little, because life isn't so bad, and I know that there is always someone out there worse off than me. But, it doesn't make it any easier. I am continually praying for strength to be the best mother and wife I can be, and I know that my prayers will be answered.
Jake and I were given free tickets to the Mariners game on Tuesday. We usually go to 4 0r 5 games a year, but this was our first and only game this season. Our M's are just really bad, and it wasn't fun to watch players I've never even heard about. Oh, how I miss my Boonie! It was fun to get out, even though we only stayed until the bottom of the 3rd.
Taylee was so excited to start pre-school this week. There are 3 of us who are doing it with our girls, and I think the first class turned out really good. It is my turn to teach next week, and it will be really fun. Rohne loved having me to himself for 2 1/2 hours.
They took Rohne off his medication a couple weeks ago, and when we got his white blood count checked on Thursday, it was really low again. The Dr. doesn't want to put him right back on the shots, because he's trying to figure out his body, and see if it will come back up on his own. So, we are once again on fever alert, and trying to keep him away from everything. It makes for a grouchy, stir-crazy kid, and ditto for Mommy. I know a lot of parents deal with worse, and I need to count my blessings. Please help me do this!!! It's hard for me to put things into perspective sometimes.

Sorry things are a little stressful right now! Things WILL get better! They always do. Cute picture of you and Jake!
You look so good in the top picture. What a babe!
Sorry you're so stressed. When I get stressed I tend to shut down...not a very good coping mechanism. Wish I could be more help. I just know that everything will work out, eventually.
I hope Rhone is feeling ok and his little body cooperates.
I'll be thinking of you.
gosh girl, i am no good with stress either.... it makes me a nervous wreck and the whole anxiety thing comes too... We will pray for your family, especially for roan that things will work out for him. :) best of luck.... your a great person and things will all work out! :)
Well, at least you know that you have super cute kids and a husband who thinks your super hot. You are in our prayers emmers and I love you and your fam so much
I've been pretty darn anxious about our economy and all of the changes for us as well, so we can be bastketcases together! And I'm so sorry that Rhone's blood count didn't turn out as you guys had hoped- I'm here for ya any time you need to talk or vent, it does reduce the anxiety to share a little with friends! :)
