College preschool requirements

Today I finally did the application and printed it out seven pages for the background check for ECD 360A. ECD 360A is a class that the barely set up at Brigham Young University of Idaho because two weeks before the preschool lab they had to get a background check, obtain and submit a negative TB test (which is taken every two year), and must take a 3 hour pediatric first aid and CPR course that is taken by a state health and welfare instructor.

I have so much to do, but so little time!

Our baby blues

Ever since my husband and I were on our honeymoon I had a brown discharge for a whole month. On May 7th, 2014 we finally went in to see why I was discharging so much. Our ob/gyn told us that we could be pregnant because we did not start the birth control pills two months earlier. My husband and I were so overwhelmed.

On the 12th of May I finally started to notice something different with my body I was tired a lot, my breast started to hurt, my pants were getting tight, I had a little baby bump. When I told my husband we were pregnant he kept saying its just the pills its all in your head.

A month later we miscarry twins, I was so upset by this and I'm not as upset as I was then. It was so heartbreaking to know that I could have stopped taking those pill to save those babies instead of thinking its just the medication. I feel like I could have done something about it and I still feel like I could have done something to prevent the miscarriage.

On July 13th, 2014 I told Richard what had happened to the twins and I told him that I was crying at night because of the babies we had lost.

Well soon after that I mourned for those babies because I had felt them within and I missed the feeling I had.

I know that the twins are in a better place, I know that we will see them again, and I know that we have a loving Heavenly Father who loves us an cares for us. We have to keep our head up and keep moving forward even if there are difficult trial ahead.

Sewing machine issues

So yesterday I was using my Singer curvy 8763 and I was hemming a nylon slip and it was caught under the feed dogs multiple times. Soon after the fourth or fifth time getting the nylon slip out from under the feed dogs, the slip got caught under the bobbin case juki (the object that holds the bobbin) and it came out of the holder that held the bobbin case juki, that holds the bobbin. I kept looking for directions in the manual and found none, so I proceeded to look online. There was nothing helpful online except the selling of parts to the machine and such. Later I finally figured out how to stick it back in after a long mind boggling time.

Next time use tissue paper under fabrics like nylon and chiffon.
