Re: I Need a Pep Talk...Very Discouraged Today
Denise,
My doctor said almost the exact sentence to me. I remember the day... my husband and I too shocked to say anything. Hey - I'm still here and my third grader is now in ninth grade, (on the HS crew team) my first grader is now in sixth grade(got to see her volleyball game today) and my 4 yr old is now in fourth grade, (giving me a hard time about her reading journal.)
Maybe someone has said this before but truly, there is no substitute for time - I still worry and you will too but focus on those kids and that wonderful husband.
