On the way to our house last night, he said, "Mom, I don't think I can deal with SPACE." So his mom said, "What is it that is upsetting?" "He said, "It never ends." She said, "You know, this is a question for Ana Cooper." So they found my older daughter, Ana, 9, and Justin said, "Ana, does space ever scare you?" And Ana said, "It used to. But then I figured out--it's just more room to explore." So, my neighbor has this little boy named Justin, who is a Deep Thinker.

I loved reading this post -- I really need to do a similar list so I don't just focus on the negative aspects of this past year. But mostly, to go forward into 2008 with a positive attitude. I was reading your previous post about the $800 ER bill. Isn't it ironic? You seek help for anxiety and then you're slapped with an $800 bill. Talk about negating the "help." Grrrr.

Your life frustrations mirror those that most of us have just trying to get through ok in this world. The fact that we are getting through it is a real accomplishment.

I also look forward to your thoughtful and insightful comments. Being a fellow teacher, you can understand my concerns and frustrations.
