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.

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.

Hierarchy of Needs

Here we go again, spring time is in the air and so is the excitement of trying to figure out how the summer will proceed. For the field of work that I now find myself it is a number of questions with the most pressing being: how to develop safe environments. There are so many factors but Maslow had some divine intervention to develop such a clear and concise theory. The coming week will be transforming and revealing for what we can accomplish or the coming quarter and year.

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.
