A moment of reflection...

I have not posted a blog in a long time...too busy and no internet at home for the longest time. During this time so much has happened ... stressful, sad, happy and many variations and combinations of each. The last time I posted my grandpa Peter "Papasneak" passed away on April 5th, 2010. On October 23, 2010 our "Big Ap'a" Alexander Isaac joined him and our family. It was sad to lose him but at the same time we were happy that he got to join his wife and all the other departed loved ones. We were blessed to have our grandfathers for as long as we did, and our gram for that matter.

Village news? The eels came and my brothers had a blast. I have not cooked eels since the last time my Ap'a asked me to cook for him.

Family news? My eldest daughter is due in December and my second born is due in May. My son and granddaughter are in their terrible twos - don't know who coined the second year of life terrible twos but that seems to be right on target with my son's behavior around the house. he is a cutie and his personality cracks us up a lot of the time but man can he make a mess!! Curious George ten times over!!!! all innocently done too!

School news? I had to postpone my internship year and may have to move in order for it to get done.... long long long sad story... I have enough saddness for this entry. Suffice it to say I am stalling out big time. I have even begun to think "what if I am not meant to be a teacher?" now THAT would be sad. Especially when I think of all the time I neglected my family and Ap'a because of homework. Made me cry and got me depressed for a while there when I couldn't do the internship here at Russian Mission. Gosh - here I go again... I will try to blog again when the waterworks calm down.
