Cassidy is doing really well. She just started 5th grade, I still don't feel old enough to have a child in 5th grade (my wrinkles are starting to make me feel old enough though). Her seizures are under control and we are currently in talks with her neurologist to possibly start taking her off of her meds. We are taking her off of one now as we speak because it is not needed since she is taking the other and if she stays seizure free, she may be growing out of them. This sends up huge warning flags for me and I have tons of questions but I guess we will cross that bridge when we get to it. Other than that she is just your typical 10 year old girl and by that I mean completely sassy and wanting nothing to do with her completely embarrassing mother :)
This one is beyond sassy (not much has changed really) and keeps me on my toes. She started 1st grade and loves being back in school and playing with friends. She now has an Ipod and you can catch her rockin out as much as possible, she is turning 6 soon and wants to donate clothes and toys to kids who don't have any. Her heart is amazing, she recently donated her hair to Locks Of Love (obviously the picture above is older), I sat in the chair blubbering as it was cut off but I have to say, short hair suits her sassy attitude!!!!! We shall see what year 6 brings with her but I am sure it just adds a bit more sass.
And then we have her (sigh), moms don't have favorites because each kid is special and unique in their own way but this one just gets me all the time. I know it is because she is my youngest and I am trying like hell to hold on to anything baby she may still have about her. I don't know what i will do when she goes to school, except maybe cry into my tub of bon bons while I watch home movies. She is just the epitome of a little girl and wants to be anywhere I am, it truly melts my heart!!!!
You didn't think you were getting away without looking at this ugly mug we you? Here is an update on where I am at. I had a fantastic job, I was signing a lease soon on an apartment for the girls and I am planning my new future as a single mom. Then my boss let me know he was closing his business, which left me jobless, unable to sign the lease and having to stay here. I have been completely miserable, I think having a future and having it all pulled out from under you can definitely throw you off but I also know it is a huge sign that that is not where I was supposed to be. So, I have had to suck it up and live under the same roof with my soon to be ex husband (huge eye roll, sorry, I may be a little bitter and try real hard to put my fake smile one when I say that). I am going to be enrolling in a phlebotomy program that starts in October and by mid November I should be certified and able to apply for work. It is not my dream job but it will get me out of my current situation and I can provide for my girls. Not to say I don't like it, I think it will be a good job and I will like interacting with others. I am pretty excited. The only thing I am nervous about is being the old lady in the class, I definitely do not want to be the old lady!!!!!
So, that is a quick check up with all of us. I hope to keep this thing updated and have some fun stuff on here soon. Thank you for being patient with me as I try to get my life back on track!!!!!!
