personal writing piece required for HoTWI

HoTWI (Heart of Texas Writing Institute)---it's a mouthfull, yes.


i'm trying to decide what i should write about for this personal piece... while at the same time trying to decide what to write about for my research piece as well. i've been listing ideas on my mind lately and trying to see what keeps coming up. what am i noticing?

at the top of my list are:

• the little baby growing inside of me

and

• who i am now versus who i will be when he is born

those are so personal--i guess hence the name. but in some ways, i'm not sure i would want everyone to read it... as will be the case when it is finished--i will be sharing it with my class. it just seems that these are topics that keep repeating in my mind, so these are things i, obviously, need to talk about.
