Today kicks off a brand new season of activities for the kids. Jordan has decided that she wants to start working toward her goal of participating in triathlons by joining our town's youth cross country program. She and I started running together last year and she's really taken to it. I'm excited she's willing to jump into another new experience. In two weeks, she also gets back into dance where she plans to take completely new classes: hip hop and musical theater. It's so fun to watch her get the chance to find the activities she really enjoys.Add in Cameron's activities at school and after school and then I start thinking about work travel... It all starts to feel super overwhelming.And that's why we're going to start something new in our family starting next week. Instead of scrounging for babysitters on the weeks when I'm out of town, we've decided to bring in a new person to help us out in the afternoons... Even when I'm in town. Some of my friends have pushed me in the direction toward a part-time nanny for the last year or so. They've reminded me that I deserve a little more sanity in a non-stop life. It may help me not feel like my head is always spinning as I juggle the job, kids, house, dog and whatever else is on my plate. Our school's after-school program was incredible for the last seven years. I'm sad to see us walk away from the wonderful people who take care of the kids there. But I'm excited to have someone pitch in on my crazy life. It all comes together as Randy moves into a bigger newsroom job that doesn't make it as easy to walk away from work when help is needed. So many changes. I hope they are for the better!
