I actually had to leave my house Sunday after a freakout that I had just to clear my mind. I don't know if it's the pregnancy hormones or the fact that I'm not home with my kids during the day anymore, but I needed to read that whether I freak out or not... the situation will still remain.<br /><br />Thank you for this post!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11660382153003691371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027534132693377698.post-44911410318271290472010-08-10T04:01:14.336-04:002010-08-10T04:01:14.336-04:00Many, many times (in my old classroom with severe ...Many, many times (in my old classroom with severe students) I saw myself on video in the classroom, and I always marveled at how calm, cool, and collected I seemed on the outside, when in fact, I was often freaking out inside!

However, I have been a Paramedic for over 20 years and that comes with the territory. When you are in that field, you MUST remain calm when everyone else around you is freaking out. If you don't, things are going to go south really quickly! So, from a really young age, I learned how to hold it all together, no matter what - whether it was in the middle of a really bad call or if it was a situation at home. I think this is a good trait. <br /><br />I'm stopping by from The Lady Bloggers Society. I've been by many times before but today I saw your link there and thought I'd pop in to say hi. I {{heart}} your blog and really enjoy reading it. <br /><br />I hope you're having a great Monday.<br /><br />Blessings,<br /><br />Teresa <><<br /><br /><a href="http://toomanyheartbeats.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">♥ Too Many Heartbeats ♥</a><br>Teresa @ ♥ Too Many Heartbeats ♥https://www.blogger.com/profile/06926075458122509648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027534132693377698.post-77117683003202797102010-08-09T15:09:38.406-04:002010-08-09T15:09:38.406-04:00Im a calm parent too.
