Aside from my academic challenges in June, I have learned a lot about myself and family this summer. I wanted to make note of some items of particular importance or of high frustration for later reflection.
1. Potty training can be an extremely lengthy process. Carson was accident-free in 48 hours, before he was two. Needless to say, the second time has drug on a bit longer. Accidents only happen at bedtime now, which is my fault, if I forget the pull-up. But, wow, I have washed a ton of sheets this summer.
2. It is much easier to learn to ride a two-wheel bike on a smaller one. That was a great tip!
3. I don't have to be super tan anymore to feel good about myself. I have beat "tanorexia".
4. Kids truly carry their parents opinions and thoughts everywhere. I have heard my own words regurgitated on several occasions. My favorite is when Carson tells Jeremy to change the channel because the show is inappropriate.
5. Sponge Bob is not so bad. I actually think he's funny and enjoy watching him.
6. I enjoy yoga.
7. My son is truly a lot like me, which worries me.
8. Discipline is the hardest it has ever been. Jeremy and I don't agree on approaches.
9. My kids love fish, not to eat, as pets.
