Annika's recheck

Annika did pretty well for her second blood draw. We also got a genetic referral. Right at this moment though she is having a meltdown. He self esteem is so low. I wish I could help her more. She just doesn't seem to respond to anything I try to do to help her to get her out of this funk sometimes. She will be starting psychological therapy soon. I hope that helps. I have a child that acts like a wonderful 10 year old one moment and then turns into a crying pit of despair. I am hoping things get better soon but they look like they are only going to get worse.....


I need someone to light a candle for me.

Thank you Tracie... for my emotional light......

Huh?

Well, I heard from Annika's doctor today. Some of her blood work came back questionable from her blood draw on Tuesday. She had some levels that need to be rechecked. I am a little worried because of all her ongoing conditions and challenges.

Herbal anti-inflamation oil infusion

 

 

OK, have you heard of oil pulling? This infussion is tailor made for inflamation of the gums. We will see how it works. It contains alfalfa, goldenseal, chamomile, turmeric, yellow dock, and ginger. All of these were infussed into almond and coconut oil. i recommend the individual I am making this for to use the oil for oil pulling.

Quick

Trying again... with runes thrown in

 

 

 

Annika has become interested in Anglo-Saxon runes from the Dragonology series of books. A friend at school has been sharing it with her. She wrote out her name and my name in runes. Annika was in decent spirits for her blood draw. This is the 3rd time we have tried. 3rd time is the charm right. We were able to get it done. She was a little upset but everything went OK in the end.

Such a beautiful find

I found this Mother / Woman / Goddess figure today at the thrift store. Annika and my friend Tracie helped me look up her worth to sell. Apparently Annika thinks she is priceless. She wants me to keep her. I just may do that..

Elaina and beads

I have to start her young....

I need help with my bead and jewelry making. She is growing so fast.

Mistletoe hunt

They cut a limb off of the tree we always climb to harvest mistletoe. We ended up getting some, but not what expected....

Almost 6 months old

When did my baby grow up so fast?

Stringing popcorn for the tree

Our two  garlands turned out OK... They make a nice contrast on the tree. Eliot, Lyn, Ben, and Evan helped. That included eating the popcorn as well as stringing it....
