My students



The past few months have flown by quickly, and have been very full at the same time. It is hard to believe that it is Christmas time! It is even harder to believe because it is blazing hot here.
The kids still keep things cool in the classroom with their fun personalities and humor. I have realized how much I enjoy teaching. Noreen told me once that I would love anything that I taught. After thinking over this statement for the past week, I have to say that I agree. I love to be with the kids on a daily basis during the entire day. Watching the kid’s behavior in other classes teaches me more about who they are as a person. With this knowledge, I am able to deal with them better as a student and love them more as a person. At Blas Pascal, I can share with them Christ’s love and be specific about from where it comes.

Making the Decision to Not Make the Decision

I get the question, "Are you going to have any more kids?" asked often. Since finding out Magdalena's diagnosis it was always a tough question to answer. We had always envisioned ourselves with multiple children, but there was always the lingering thought of having to endure this difficult situation again. Although it is less than a one percent chance that we would have another child with T18, the percentage still exists. When pregnant, I said multiple times that I couldn't do this again and my mom constantly reminded me that it is not always that difficult. Being pregnant was physically uncomfortable, but I was referring to the constant emotional exhaustion. As Magdalena continued to do well, Noah and I weren't sure when to begin thinking about other children. Noah and I discussed that I would work really hard at losing my weight, but I was willing to be five pounds more than what I was originally. People poked fun at my not eating Magdalena's birthday cakes...
