This Year’s Accomplishments

I’m behind on blogging. Again. This year has been a busy year for us. We are doing a lot more with homeschool this year and are involved in two new homeschool co-ops. I’m also doing more studying for professional growth at work. But I did want to take a minute to share some of our accomplishments.

MJ made the All-Region band this year--first band, sixth chair. I was proud to see that she was the only 7th grade trombonist who made All-Region.  And her All-Region band director was my high school band director’s son!

Two of my cubs were promoted in January. MJ received her purple belt, making her eligible to attend instructors’ clinics. CG received his green belt.
And I’m another step closer to a long-time dream of mine. I have completed 90 hours of lactation-specific education and 1000 hours of assisting breastfeeding mothers, and I have scraped together enough pennies to register for the IBCLC exam this July!
