thank you, Lord for several friends and family members who have provided support to me during this past month - especially the last little bit. from watching my kids, to praying for me, and also for just talks on the phone (sometimes with loud children in the background). it kept me sane. of course, you know.
one thing i am trying to learn - 1)you can say no. 2)treat yourself a little. find your happy place - you're kids will thank you for it!
happy place includes:
long walks outside - alone or with stroller and baby - that works too - gotta get those endorphins back
screen porch time
coffee
de cluttering the house
blue hydrangeas on the kitchen table (from my front yard!)
candles
painting
music
we're getting there. the kids are trying to get over this last virus. we've been watching more tv than normal, building with Legos a lot while baby naps, serving a lot of childrens motrin, and trying to clean a very dirty house. hoping things calm down soon - looking forward to a fun summer.
before i forget, i have to write a few willisms:
menu - food looker
cashier - pay pointer
pharmacists - medicine asker
he still can't say some of his sounds, esp. when you put two consonants together. so brown brush is "frown frush".
and my favorite is when he says, "when i grow up" sounds more like "when i throw up" and he talks about growing up a lot. it really confuses some people.

"I'm going to be an airplane friver when I frow up!" Thank you Delta for giving him hours in the 757. |
