thankful and busy and tired and happy

Another monday :o) took Josh to ED Gym again. Nic came along this morning too cause she knows Mel, the lady that does it monday mornings (she used to do ED Gym herself sometime ago). Was nice, cause I've always kinda stood back and not gotten hugely involved in doing things with Josh, more just helping him and making sure he doesn't injure someone else's child! But Nic showed me it was ok to get on the equipment with him! So I did, and it was cool. Thanks Nic :o)

So yeah, life is just moving along like it does - way too fast. Doesn't help that we're heading straight into the crazy time of year. I really love the chance to have nice Christmas - you know, with the big lunch or dinner and all the family...setting the table all nice and starting/continuing cool traditions. Except Aaron's parents are going up north to visit his sister this year and mum is working at some stage. At least my brother's gonna be here! YAY Matt (not that he ever reads my blog wah wah wah!) We'll have time with everyone but not a chance to be ALL TOGETHER. Will have to plan it for next year...

Still struggling with Josh and his 'rest time'. The rest of this new routine thing is going ok (although I'm nowhere near as organised as I wanna be!) but rest time is a major battle EVERYDAY. And even tho it's killing me and I seriously wonder if it's worth it, I know how much he needs it so I'm struggling on. And if it every becomes easy (I'm hoping!) I'll be really thankful that I put in the hard yards...just right now it's definitely HARD.

But I'm thankful anyway because it means I have a son that I'm struggling with. I'd rather that than no son at all. And it shows that he is strong and I'm praying that strength will keep him when he's older and someone tries to lead him in the wrong direction. So regardless of how hard it is, I'm thankful.

Oh, and I'm also thankful that Kai is sleeping peacefully... ;o)
