Timing
Tonight is the last night before module. I have mixed feelings. It means leaving Koya when he is still recovering from his accident (he was hit by a car last Thursday and injured pretty badly), and also not being able to go with B. to see him run in the Boston Marathon. Both are tugging on my heart.
A colleague of mine asked what I was most scared about going into Module III. Honestly, I feel pretty good about how things are going school-wise. I just need to take one thing at a time. This year there is much more of an emphasis on academic work: papers, assessments, exams, etc, whereas last year the most difficult work was highly personal. When I look back, I’m very proud of the work I have done and feel that it's finally paying off; I'm in a very different place now. I know that in this field there will be continuous opportunities for personal growth, but ultimately I feel good about where I am and where I am headed.
And although I am not caught up on all the reading, I feel like I am more prepared for this module. I will just miss the boys a lot--and Luna. It's a hard time to be leaving.

WHAT?? Koya was hit by a car??? Is he okay?
Yes, but he is going to be o.k.
He is actually bringing the ball to us wanting to play, though I don't think that he's well enough to chase after it. He is doing so much better today than over the weekend. It has been very hard though to see him in so much pain. He is such a huge part of my life.
Oh, when you said badly, I imagined that he was in a full body cast or something. Good to know that he's at least mobile.
