The rest of Grade 4

Ok I'm not sure both my children would agree that I am 'Hip' but I really am more 'Groovy' than Hip  that being said I just want to catch my thoughts up on Nate's second half of his grade 4 year. now as December comes to a close I am reviewing all that he has done and I am please to see he has done quite well. He wasn't ready for grade 5 back in September so I gave him a bit of a break and just focused on repeating some things that we glossed over but he needed to move forward with. January starts him in Grade 5 and he is ready.

A day to mark a balancing point

 A Day of Balance Today, September 4 back in 2002 was a day that ended my career and almost my life. Here I will share the pictures of that day. But...this is a day of balance for me.

Let me tell you a little story: I made " POMC Island" sometime in 2012 But we were 'living' on it for quite a while before it had a name.... Nathaniel was diagnosed May of 2010.. The Dr gave me case studies and told me to take notes as there was NO support group, and very little was known about this.... as you can imagine it was very hard to comprehend. A few weeks later both my younger sister and then my Dad died suddenly, a week apart. Needless to say I was having a very low, very dark and painful time and of course I was still trying to come to grips with having a child with a rare disorder and not being able to even  find anyone else with Pro-opiomelanocortin Deficiency even though the studies I had read, the studies I had right there in my hands told me that there are other families out there ... I have not been able to contact them... And ...
