Is your parenting life like this?

The picture of this girl,(after she gets off the Roller Coaster)

really shows us that even if we think

something will be fun and easy--

we can often be~

Wrong!

New Ohio Roller Coaster

The dips and turns of this ride-- really illustrates ~ parenting!

-- We think it will be fun, laughs and good times,

and it is-- but the after effects can be overwhelming!

Jessica and I are back from our visit to see the Pediatric Nephrologist ...

and the verdict is~

She is just fine, we will still give her the blood pressure medicine each day--

most likely for years-- but untill she starts going thru puberty

we won't know what will happen with her kidneys.

They did take an ultrasound of them,(her kidneys)

but I have yet to hear if they are "normal" for Jessica or not.

Thank you for your thoughts and prayers---

Jessica did just fine, the only time she lost her smile and giggle

was when they took her blood-- Poor girl--

however~ she did receive a doll and some DORA playing cards!

We stopped by my cousin Jannet and Jeff's new house--- (cue the applause) is was Wonderfull! simply wonderful!

Jannet is a great resource of information ~on how to get what you need for your child -from the school. It was a great visit, I almost didn't want to leave! LOL!

Jerry, my dear hubby even did some laundry while I was gone! WOW! He gets some brownie points for that-- but then he was watching TRANSFORMERS, with Shane when we got home-- (this is like the 3rd or 4th time watching this...) Mommy wasn't completly happy-- but -- all in ALL -- it was a good day!

This weekend the kids and I ~ get to go to a day long parenting workshop--- I am very excited I hope that I can retain all the information I need--- ! Hahaha
Ah, well... Check back here to see what I retain--
I'll attempt to pass any good nuggets of advice on to you!
