There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . . Be grateful. Your most challenging child is the greatest blessing. Heather Forbes. December 18, 2011. We have been busy with fun activities, in addition to the regular, not-always-as-fun things like school, laundry, scraping windshields. Here are some highlights:. In costumes outside the fellowship in early December. Both girls had parts in which they were plants so they wore green. Panda is making reindeer food using oatmeal and glitter. Mrs Claus reading storie...

There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . . Be grateful. Your most challenging child is the greatest blessing. Heather Forbes. September 22, 2012. Dare I write this? Panda has experienced an huge leap in emotional stability. Hardly any throwing things. She can often stop herself before she explodes in anger. This has been over the past several weeks. Her recent therapy sessions have focused on working through a book called, What to Do When You Grumble Too Much. We love her so much! I am the mama. She is in...

There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . . Be grateful. Your most challenging child is the greatest blessing. Heather Forbes. November 15, 2011. Another post worth reading. Lest you think childhood trauma is not on my mind lately, check out this post from Jen Hatmaker. I stumbled onto it around 3:00am this morning when I couldn't sleep. I am the mama. I've challenged myself to make a quilt block each day for the next two weeks. Last Saturday I took a class. Here are the first blocks. Several people have r...

There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . . Be grateful. Your most challenging child is the greatest blessing. Heather Forbes. January 30, 2012. Tonight on the news, the announcer called this month Jun-uary because its been as warm as June in many parts of the U.S. We are part of the 'many places'. Bushes and other flora are beginning to show signs of life. Yikes! Don't they know that Jun-uary is made up? It isn't really spring, go back to sleep for a couple months.

There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . .: School's out for summer . . . sorta

There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . . Be grateful. Your most challenging child is the greatest blessing. Heather Forbes. May 29, 2012. School's out for summer . . . sorta. May is almost over and it was a whirlwind of activities. Poodaloo is out of school as of Friday. Panda is very unhappy about the situation (i.e. she has school and sister does not). I'm in shock, thinking there was one more week before Poodaloo is out. I'm praying with one hand. I'm a mirror image of myself! This past weekend, Baba...

There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . .: Why do French people do that?
http://silverliningsomewhere.blogspot.com/2012/09/why-do-french-people-do-that.html
There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . . Be grateful. Your most challenging child is the greatest blessing. Heather Forbes. September 17, 2012. Why do French people do that? Or Trumpet of the Swan. Which was your favorite kids book? Maybe the library has it on audio and you can listen in the car. No one else has to know. My lips are zipped. Which was too mature for Panda and Poodaloo. In the story, 14 year old Gilda receives her first kiss. Afterward, in the way of teenage girls, Gilda and her f...As yo...

There's a Silver Lining Somewhere . . . . Be grateful. Your most challenging child is the greatest blessing. Heather Forbes. November 21, 2012. 24 hours of childhood trauma. Today I felt the urge to document the past 24 hours in my house. Panda has a three week track break from her school. Poodaloo will be off school starting tomorrow through the week of Thanksgiving. They are both going to a local gym for day camp tomorrow. Am I glad? You better believe it. Yesterday was a camp day with swimming at a lo...
