Penny for My Thoughts?

OK well you don't actually have to give me a penny for my thoughts. I will just give you my thoughts for free!

Lets just start out with how crappy of a day this started out being. Well in all honesty it started out good. Got up on time, took a nice shower, fixed my hair and make up, left the house on time...Or so I thought. Yes this morning I had a test. Most of our test start at 9am and this one, I thought, was no different...Until I got to school at 8:30. I get to school thinking I'm early, text one of my friends. Who does not answer. So I call...still no answer. OK I think her phone is just on silent. Call another friend...NO ANSWER. Decide well I'll just go to the floor where the test is going to be. Usually test day there is a crowed of people waiting in the hall today NOBODY!!! So a panic comes over me. I start to think maybe I'm in the wrong place or even worse I am LATE. Well the latter of the 2 options was the actual reason. So I pull out my phone and look at our schedule and it says the test started at 8. So at this point I am really FREAKING. I get to the room where the test is at see the teacher and ask if I can still come in? At this point I am just shaking and in tears I was so scared they were not going to let me take this test. Well nobody had left yet. THANK YOU FELLOW CLASSMATES!!!! Therefore I got to go in and take my test. Still upset and trying to pull myself together but none the less I was going to take this test. I ended up making an 87% which was just fine with me but I think this was one of the most anxiety inducing moments of my life! Oh this test was supposed to be last week at 9am but due to snow they changed it to this week. UGH. Oh well it is over and done with. Only 86 more days (but whose counting).

Another thoughts....
I LOVE my husband so much. He is an amazing man. He has his times of temper tantrums (really who doesn't) but he is so supportive and encouraging to me. I just adore him.

I love Jayci being 4-years-old. It is absolutely FABULOUS! I can't explain it. It was like everyday I wished she were a little older but now I just want her to stay this age. I know as babies it is so cute and fun to watch them explore but it is hard (at least for me it was). It is hard because they can't communicate very well, they cry for everything, they are into everything, and many other reasons. As toddlers it seems they become whiny and are just testing boundaries constantly! Oh this drives me crazier than anything. Even at 3 Jayci's boundary testing would drive me up the wall. I used to say "A 2-year-old will make you want to run away but a 3-year-old will make you want to send them away." It's like when they are 2 you just feel like you are not doing anything right and at 3 sometimes you just want them to go away and to understand. Now I know Jayci has only been 4 for like a month so the change has probably been gradual but I like it either way. She is much more obedient. A lot less whiny. And I just love watching her intelligence grow. Don't get me wrong she has her days but for the most part it's like we are finally getting it. I don't know if it is her getting older or me just finally "getting" this whole parenting thing down a little better. Maybe it is both but whatever it is it is working out for us.

OK I think those are the only thoughts I have for now. My tummy is growling so I can't think of any other ones! Hope everyone has a great weekend. Mine is filled with working and studying. Oh and a birthday party (that I will probably take my books to so I can study there as well). Oh well 86 more days!
