"I'm Smart"

Sometimes Ty likes to crawl into bed with us in the morning. It is so cute because he always asks if he can lay by me. This morning he came in, and after laying there for a minute he said, "Mom, I'm smart. My brain is 60 feet tall inside my head."

Maybe we should skip pre-school...;)

New Gig

So, I have been looking around for some small writing jobs I can do-you know, to earn a *little* money and keep up on my "skills". I came across examiner.com a few weeks ago. It's a national website that divides itself up into over 100 cities across the country. I decided to apply for a Salt Lake City Examiner job as an SPD (Sensory Processing Disorder) & Parenting Examiner. I had to submit some sample articles, and last week they contacted me and want me to write for them! I write 3-4 articles a week, and each article is between 200-500 words. I research topics and write about my own experiences as well. So far I've published two articles-they just got me on the site today. I get a small amount of money, and the more people who read my articles, the more I get paid.So far I've made 10 cents!! Yeehaw!! So-yes, I am asking all of you to support me and log on to examiner.com everyday!! :) If you go to www.examiner.com and enter Salt Lake City (it may automatically come up as SLC), then go to the tab called family & home, then to Parenting & Family, you can then scroll through the articles. The ones by SPD & Parenting Examiner are mine!! Thanks in advance for your support!!

Paybacks

Paybacks for writing an ornery post about Noah are a beast! For the last week Noah has been a sick little guy. He has had a fever that fluctuated between 101 and 104.7 for several days, eye infections, an ear infection, and now a crazy rash on his chest and back! At first we thought the rash was a reaction to the antibiotics he was taking, but now we think it may just be part of the sickness he has. Needless to say, this has put a kink in the walking practice. But, it's okay. He is still my baby, for now. I just want him to get better. I must say, although I haven't gotten much done the last week, it has been sweet to hold Noah and have him cuddle with me. He's a sweetie!
