Feeling Defeated...

My heart hurts...
my sister is in agony, her husband tries to be strong for her, but he aches too...
they need comfort
they need reassurance
they need hugs
they need laughs
they need time to grieve
they need time to refocus
they need to know that i believe with all my heart that God will bless them with a child...
they need to know that i believe God knows the deep desire of their hearts to be parents, and
they need to know that He knows what amazing parents they would be, and that it will happen...that they can trust Him...
they need to know it is in HIS timing...

they need to know i believe with all of my heart that there is no one else i know on this earth who deserves to be a mommy and daddy more than them...

they need to know that i trust they will be blessed with the gift of parenting because they have such a heart for children and i believe they can and will make a difference in the life of at least one child...
they need to know that it will all be okay...
they need to know i love them so much and i am praying constantly for their aching hearts...
they need to know that i know they can get thru this...
they need to know they are not alone...

Dee and Shane, you are not alone, you have eachother...and you're so strong and brave and the most amazing couple i know...i look up to you guys...i love you both so very much...dont give up, dont feel defeated, hold eachother up...
and KNOW..."that which does not kill you, makes you stronger."
hugs to my nee-nee...your sissy is with you...

Absent-minded Professors...literally!

Okay, so my first day of grad school last thursday, my professor forgot to show up to class...thought her class was at 2, but she was mistaken, its at 10...at that time, i was currently enrolled just in that class...so, um, i went home...
today, i went to another class i added and went to it at 8am...and 830 rolls around, NO professor...
Um, he slept in...Sweet...so if this is how grad school is, i should have no problems passing with flying colors...or maybe its just me, maybe i am bad luck...nah, they just happen to be "theatre" professors, so absent mindedness is a given...oh, us silly artists!
Luckily, the professor who had not showed up last thursday, successfully made it to my 10am class, where i got to play theatre games in a huge circle with a ball...with a butt load of liberal studies majors, and then there were three....three lone grad students...myself and my pals, tanae and dan...we are carpool buddies...all have the same classes, so that ROCKS!!!! anyway, my second day of grad school was, um, better!?

Who am I kiddin?

Sat down to begin some "homework" for school, and thought to myself, "who the heck am i kiddin?" man, i was in school like 6 years ago...i think i can remember what to do and how to do it, but i think it is going to be a lot harder than i expected...not that school was not hard before, but now my life is in such a different place, im not 19, im 28...so, off i go to study...one thing i can say is, i give props to moms who do this...school, being a wife, and with kids...whew, glad i just have the wife and school thing...otherwise, i dont think id be able to hang...

BIG MOUTH...your friendly neighborhood recyling buddy
