A few random thoughts

So! Long time no write, and not a lot to tell. Work is still going well, although we are much slower than when I first started working. I am excited though, because tomorrow I get to try something new. Every week the school district does screenings on kids that aren't old enough to go to school. Tomorrow I get to help with it, I am excited even though one of the audiologists told me that 'childfind is the birth control of audiology.' I am hoping I don't scare that easily :)

I really love the holiday season and the many opportunities I have to be thankful for the many things I have. One of the things that I am thankful for is my family. I feel pretty lucky to be the oldest sibling of so many fun people. A little while ago I had dinner with an old friend. This friend came from a small (well, at least compared to mine) family and has a child. This friend was always a jokster in high school and frequently teased me about my huge family. The friend then proceeded to make a joke to the effect of 'no wonder you don't have any kids, you have a million brothers and sisters.' In an effort to stop being really ticked about the comment, I thought I'd throw it out there along with a few declarative statements. I love my big family. I know that there are always 9 people in the world who will love me no matter I do, or what happens to me. Any choices I make about if and when I have a family are my own and other people shouldn't make comments on my choice unless I ask. So, in short, people, don't make rude comments about other peoples families, old or new.

I think that I might be over it now :)

Hugs to all my peeps...blood related and those that are related in spirit!
