I still think that every parent should have a parenting class every year. Or maybe a support group. Its kind of funny actually. I meet up with a lot of mom's, and I seem to always be saying something like "yes, we are going through that too!" And in the back of my head is the little voice saying "Oh thank goodness its not just me!!!" This week has been a week of testing. Jade testing her limits and my patience. She is a very independent little girl, and I don't want that to change, but I need her to obey as well. Its a hard line to try to hold. And of course, being full of self confidence myself...I am always questioning if I am making the right choices. Am I being to strict? Am I letting her off to easy? It is hard to have to make the choices and not know if you are doing the right thing. Discipline was never my strong point either. Childhood is for learning, so I think it is for parents to learn too. :)

In other news, congrats to Ken for a successful interview! I am very happy for you!
