Acting Sweet
*Sorry it's been a while since I have posted anything. I have started working full time and am about to launch our new Thin and Healthy Program this Sunday at our Open House, which I am the Director of. Not only that, but I am in charge of putting the Open House together. No pressure or anything. So with all the medications I am on for my leg/knee still, I have been absolutely exhausted. Since I hadn't slept in 9 months they put me on a sleeping pill and for the first time in almost 10 months, I am actually sleeping through the night (sometimes). It's better than nothing. And my Acupuncture is starting to go really well, so I am starting to get hopeful that at least my knee will get better. I most likely will have this nerve pain for life, but I am trying to still minimize the discomfort with medication. I will try to get better about posting, but no promises...sorry.

Makenna had her Super Star Week at School a couple weeks ago. She was sent home a "vest" out of a brown paper bag for her to decorate. She put all of her favorite things on it. I think she did a great job. She also got to bring in 2 pictures so she choose the one of the Harrison's from last Christmas and the one of her and Jackson from Valentine's Day. The one of her, Mark and Madison is from the Zoo because it was "Z" Week. I know it looks like I helped her, but I promise I let her do all the choosing. She went in the spare bedroom and went through the pictures herself. She has been drawing, coloring, and writing a ton lately. I think she is going to end up always having a journal like me. She writes in her notebook everyday and is even starting to write words on her own. She is just too smart for her own good. We were driving home today from Jill's house where her and Adison were playing "Jill and Ashlee" and were pushing their baby dolls around in real strollers with Jill's sunglasses on. So this was our conversation on the way home:

Ash: "How many kids do you want to have when you grow up?"

Makenna: 18 and 60.

Ash: No, how many...like I have two...you and Mark..Aunt Bethany has 3... so how many do you want to have?

Makenna: 18+1

Ash: So, 19...18+1?

Makenna: No, Mom, Just 18.

Ash: Wow, that's a lot.

Makenna: Yeah, and you're going to be 100 when I have my kids.

Ash: Oh, really 100...that's pretty old...Are you going to take care of me?

Makenna: We'll see.

Ash: We'll see? So, you're not going to take care of me?

Makenna: I said WE'LL SEE. That doesn't mean no, but it doesn't mean yes either, it means we'll see.

Ash: (In Shock) Okay.

Makenna: Besides, you're going to be in a wheelchair anyway.

Ash: (In shock again) Why I am going to be in a wheelchair? Are you at least going to push me in my wheelchair?

Makenna: You're going to be in a wheelchair because you're old and no, I'm not going to push you, you can push yourself.

At that point, I had to stop the conversation. She just blows me away.
