I was very very nervous about starting this chapter of my life--just ask MrsNOP. But it is going swimmingly. D is doing great and I truly enjoy the time spent on school SO much. I believe that her love language is quality time so she really blooms during that time.
Chromo, You will be pleased to know that I am going to sign D6 up for some extracurricular activities. I am the type of person who can be contrary...argumentative just for the sake of a good debate. Then I sit back and ruminate and can't stop turning it over and over in my mind. Next thing you know, I'm doing exactly what I said I wasn't going to do and hey who's wonderful idea was that, anyway?! I think you are right, in that she needs more of an extracurricular life than she currently has. Thank you for the push. I need it sometimes.
