We have gone organic! The whole family. We are doing this for Bug and for the family as a whole. We started last week and we are continuing this week. We have reduced our meat consumption to only fish (salmon, tilapia, tuna) and occasional poultry. We are buying products from Whole Foods and Fresh Market. We have decided to shop at the farmer's market downtown Memphis on Saturdays. Two weeks into this and I feel great. I have lost 6 pounds. I believe Fred has lost 10 plus. Bug has improved his sleeping a little, but it is too early to tell if our changes have positively affected his brain function yet.
My article was approved by the local publication and will be in next month's issue. I am so excited. Maybe I will become a writer. Who knows??? Business is picking up slowly, school is just beginning so people will get back into the "school" and "learning mode" soon.
As far as working out. Well, I haven't been as hard at it as I was last week. I didn't work out yesterday or today. I have just been tired. Oh!!! Worst of all!!!! World!! I have supplemented my breast feedings with formula feedings for Nicholas. I am guilty about that, but once I went back to work pumping while I was away from Nick was not only painful, but stressful. I couldn't do it anymore. So I only nurse in the evenings and at night. Soon, I guess my milk supply will dry up. I am okay with that. He will be just fine.
Frederick is so close to graduating. Yesterday, he met with his advisor to select his classes. He is only taking two classes at a time. I am so proud of him. He has worked so hard and in May 2012, he will be a college graduate.

I have been learning a lot about prayer. Not about the formal stuff, but just talking to God throughout the day. Like He is my friend. Like He is right there in the car with me or at work with me. It is feels strange. I am working on knowing His presence, developing a true friendship and learning about his personality through reading His Word. I've learned the true meaning of forgiveness and the freedom of it. God is awesome and so is growing in Him.....Awesome! Off to read Hebrews. Night-Night!
