April 2009

Here we are mid April... no new things to report really... Monique still has this cold that she cannot seem to get rid of as well as a nsty cough! Other then that, we really can't complain! Her last appointment with her pediatrician went well, we are now waiting to see the cardiology team in late May. I am keeping my fingers crossed... again... not sure for what... to push the inevitable a little further or to get it over with.

Monique started swimming lessons with her school this week. She was so excited!! Cutie pie.

So many things I have missed this year. I so wish I could be one of those moms who is always at everything and is a volunteer for activities at school but I can't because I work at a different school. I remember how good it used to feel when my mom was there for activities... I am missing everything. Having a hard time with that. I am glad however that Monique has many people around her that love her and that give their time to be at the activities mom can't be at, thanks Grand-mères... !!

I am hoping and praying to be transfered to her school in September. I don't think I can be away for her for another year. She asked me again today when I was going to be working at her school (last year we were in the same school). I miss out on way too much, plus I worry constantly that I could be missing something important in her condition. Not that I don't trust the staff at her school, they are completely capable and trustworthy but they aren't mom. I think any mom would understand that.

Anyhow... keep praying
