| From Kate |
Kate is almost two!! I can hardly believe it. I keep debating if I want to just do cake and ice cream at my in-laws, or do a small party with a few other two year old kids. I know she won't really remember it, but it is still a special day. I want her birthdays to always be special for her.

Migraines are horrible, I swear one of these days my head is going to kill me.

I recently started trying to drink herbal tea for my migraines. With my stress level through the roof, my migraines have been almost constant for the last few months. I have learned that herbal tea doesn't taste nearly as strong as I thought it would, unless it has cinnamon. I don't think I have finished a single cup of tea. I have only made five or so cups of it, and I can't seem to drink it all. In fact I once had peppermint tea that all I did was smell it. Maybe it is because I have no idea if I am even doing it right...

I just finished a good book, eventually I will do a book review for it and put it on my book review blog, found here.
---
A friend also lent me another book. It is called Positive Discipline: For Preschoolers. I am finding that I agree with somethings (no yelling, screaming, spanking, etc), however I am finding that I am disagreeing with other things (no punishing, no time outs for kids under 3). I think if a two year old is mad and hitting you, they deserve to go in time out. Maybe it is the part of me that doesn't like change, that does not like those parts of the book.

I recently started drinking fruit infused water. It has made drinking water so much easier. All I do is put chunks of fruit in the bottom of a pitcher and let it sit in the fridge over night. Than in the morning I fill up my water bottle and take it to work with me. I don't even add any sugar. I love it! I do have to say that I am looking forward to summer when fruit it cheaper.

By the way I tried to drink some tea today to help my headache, so far I don't think it has helped. I need to find something for them.

I can't believe it is almost March! Being an adult time seems to fly by, and it really doesn't matter if you are having fun or not. Time doesn't stop, it just keeps ticking on.
---
I found a quote on Pinterest that I love! I don't know who said it but I completely agree with it. "Don't let someone who gave up on their dreams talk you out of going after yours."
I don't think anyone ever really talked me out of going after my dreams, mainly because I didn't really have any. I think that is why I have such a hard time doing new things.
---
Some days I think I should start writing in a journal again.
---
Some days, all I want is to sit down with a really good friend and talk. Too bad that simple idea is so hard to accomplish with life getting in the away. But doesn't that sound nice to sit down with a friend and talk, either over lunch, or a yummy dessert?? I know a few people that would say over coffee, but I don't drink it.
