Midway through August I realised that I needed to make some changes before September came along. Although we had a wonderful summer and the weather was amazing it was also exhausting for me.
Ever since having LJ my health has just not been as good as it was before. I had to make the excruciatingly hard decision to not take Sweetpea back this autumn. I realised that it was just too exhausting for me and I really need to take time to work on trying to get my health back as much as I can.
So it's just going to be LJ and I again now that L is back in school. It was very sad to say goodbye to little Sweetpea and I'm also sad about not being able to do all of the Montessori activities I had planned over the summer, however I know in the long run that I made the best decision for me and my family.
L has started Montessori elementary and so far she loves it! I get these convoluted stories about what happens at school and it's impossible to decipher fact from fiction these days. The other day when I picked her up she said to me " Mommy I am respectful of my clothes". Haha not something you are going to hear from a regular grade one child I'm sure. Now if only she'd respect them enough to not leave them all over her bedroom floor!
Good for you - it is so important to take care of yourself! I hope your health improves soon. How cool that L is going to a Montessori elementary school. Please post about her experiences there sometimes!
