I've followed your blog on and off since. Makes me wish I could go back to when I was planning my wedding in '03 to include some of your beautiful creations!<BR/>I can totally understand you!<BR/>I have a 3 yr old son that I just started sending to Japanese Kindergarten and had the same worry about potty training! We had 2 months to really get potty training down before we went on vacation and then he started school. I think I was the same as you, more worried about accidents than him being away from me all day. Thankfully, after two weeks he is now accident free! whoo hoo!<BR/>In Japan, he goes to school from 9-2 everyday. And the bus picks him up at 8 so really I have 6 hours to dedicate to my 11month old daughter and making stuff for my etsy shop. It is wonderful!<BR/>What I want to ask you is, how you manage to do SO much with your time! I see you filling HUGE orders for flowers, running a very sucessful business, blogging daily, teaching classes, and on top of that being a good mom (btw Aidan is adorable!)and wife, and I'm imagining you must work at lighting speed! How did you mangage with your son around? Even with my 6 hour a day, I feel like I don't have enough time to get everything done! <BR/>I hope one day I'll be able to take a class and learn how to make clay flowers myself!<BR/>Keep up the great work! You inspire me!<BR/>Beverly ChangBeverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16626417132070183831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2768249840040380145.post-25544996554923898252008-09-10T07:53:00.000-07:002008-09-10T07:53:00.000-07:00Congratulations!

I can't tell you how many times in your life you will relive this moment and the next one (his first day at kindergarten).<BR/><BR/>I had "first day at school" flashbacks over Labor Day Weekend when my daughter boarded her first flight...a red eye from Colorado to Florida at 2 am...alone.<BR/><BR/>As she was being handed her boarding pass I asked for a "guest pass" to escort her to the gate. The ticket agent looked at me and said "How old is she?" I answered "20" the agent gave me a glare that said "And you want a guest pass? Get real lady!" but she said "no, the cut off age is 18". Watching her leave through the glass partitions all alone, being what the world calls an "adult" when to me she is still my little girl. Wow.. it reminded me of that first day of school. <BR/><BR/>Cherish each memory. And congratulations again on the transition from "baby" to "Little Boy" - DDebihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17851538407050231582noreply@blogger.com
