New year and new outlook. We are in our 31st week of pregnancy and expecting to see our son the week of March 20th. My daughter has affectionately named him 'Danny Boy' and we refer to him as such. Both children are excited and understand that we are bringing another baby into our home. My son isn't as happy as my daughter but I believe it must be in her disposition to be such a sweet heart so I am looking forward to sharing this lifetime with her by my side.

Return to the school schedule has begun. Both are adapting well, she better than he. I think that was to be expected, with his progress in the immersion not going so well, we are in the process of creating some sight words and phrases to share in the home for everyone to memorize and use on a daily basis. This should improve his participation in the classroom and hopefully give him some confidence in their year end presentation.

Home life is consistent and we are working on our new year goal of organizing and planning our weekly schedules. So far this is the first week we've documented every expense and every meal that is consumed. As we progress I will keep you informed and provide links back to the blogs that have given me great 'nesting' tools that I plan to use throughout the next six months until it becomes a habit.

Here we go, yo!

  Hey there! So I've been sleeping and eating and reading and somewhat writing ideas and hopes and dreams hoping to restart some creative processing for the next round of learning and dreaming. My children and I have eaten some amazing meals and prepared some traditional plants and ingredients that I would have never had the time or opportunity to know if we had not had to feed our spirits while in quarantine. We learned about the strength of our family and the effort it takes to become an intelligent person, as the world continues to move in a more productive path after quarantine, we have made changes to support our spiritual growth and make our path within ceremony to re-focus of our lives for the time being.  We have watched the sun set in Ute country and were amazed at the ingenuity and historical knowledge needed to thrive in their high arid environment. So much love and so many beautiful prayerful people have made such a good impression on my children, I will be grateful for

23 Day Challenge, Minute 2

 My second post for the #23MinuteChallenge, I think I would be the most grateful today for having some purpose in my life beyond being a mother. I have a pretty interesting job and I have been lucky enough to spend this most recent season of my life learning and gathering feedback for a community that means the most to me. I have been able to mature in my approach to issues and to learn to be more diplomatic in how I respond to issues. So with this post, my top ten things related to, or within my learning curve of higher education are as follows: Every Student Succeeds Act , 2015 Title IX Title VII Johnson O'Malley American Indian Higher Education Consortium Tribal Colleges & Universities P.L. 280  Tribal Law and Order Codes Fort Laramie Treaty, 1868 My mother, for supporting every strong willed goal and aspiration I wanted to reach but had to build the scaffold for. Unwavering love.

My 2020 Aspiration: Garth Brooks and Kelly Clarkson

One of the best days of my life in being able to support someone who has the capacity to help so many others. I had some amazing life lines I utilized and had the opportunity to support women showing up for other women in a way that we never have the time or opportunity to do as much as I would like to see...but for one day some beautiful and important relationships were made to help see someone through a transitional time in life that I still struggle with.  I am so grateful for the ability to find support and direction in what it is that I'm doing and what it is that I can do better not only for myself but for my family.
