Dont cry because its over; smile because it happened.

perfect day!

May 31, 2011
 This is such a perfect evening.  We made home made pizzas. Than watched The Outdoors with Dan Akroid.(im pretty sure thats spelled wrong)  LOL its old but I love it!  Now I sit here in my room. I was studying while my kids played.  But I kept having to stop because Purdees imagination is fabulous!! I keep thinking I didn't hear her correctly.  But when I ask what she is playing, she looks at me like Im crazy and goes about her business.  Obviously she is doing whatever it is she is doing.  My horning in isnt helping matters any.  But on a nice note she did bring me "food",  plastic corn and a pile of pickles.  mmmm.  Than she brought me imaginary coffee, which I must say is the best coffee I have ever had.  I just may ask for a second cup! Linkon is putzing around the room with his tow truck.  There is nothing in the world that beats this toy people....its doors open and shut.  He spends hours everyday opening them and putting something inside the cab.  Than he drives it around.  Only to re-open both doors and find something else to put in the cab.  Its the best game ever.  And he does it with this look of severe determination.  
Leave it to kids to bring you back down to earth.  What goes on inside their little brains?..... The innocence they bring to life.  Everything you think is so importent and stressful....simply isnt when your with them. Today we played.  I pretended I was five again and Purdee and I made puppets, than read a bazillion stories.  I get all into doing the different accents and getting into character.  Only to have her say "mom could you be normal?"  :-( 
Purdee loves spider man.  LOVES!  And pretty much anything thats not girly.  She reminds me of myself as a little girl.  She will be sitting outside in a mud puddle with rubber boots, holding a worm. While yelling at something next to her. hehehe.  I definitely dont need to worry about her having a strong personality.   Where as linkon is soft and sweet and happy.  and HUGE!  He is now the new "bomber". When i was little that was my nick name because I never went around anything. I went through it.  Linkon has earned the nickname......  As he now stands next to me dancing and looking down at his moving limbs like .... "whats happening to me?"  LOL I love kids.  All that matters in my life is right here in this room and getting them into the new world so they can have a life so deserving of their little imaginations.  
And even though I'm alone in getting them there.  Im not scared.  Is that odd?  I have Jehovah, I have my family.  What more do I need?  Sure... another person in this room right now would definitely add to the laughter in life.  But I've accepted that probably wont happen.  Im a package deal.  Thats not what people want.  Nor would I want to weigh any one else's life down.  Except if they new how rewarding it is to have kids....I know they would love mine as much as I do. 
I gonna stop rambling and go play with my kids...besides my "coffee" is running low.  Happy Me. 
 
 

headaches, hugging and paintin away!!!!

May 29, 2011
So I woke up this morning with a headache the size of Rhode Island.  Wait...thats a smaller state isn't it?  Ok, Texas. Got up to start getting ready for meeting and piled right back in bed when my meds didnt work.  I hate that. I never used to get headaches, ever.  The only two I ever got where the two times I broke my noes.  Those were duzzies! And the reason my sunglasses still sit crooked no my face.  
Now thank goodness my pills are starting to work.  Headaches make me feel like such a bu...

lazy afternoon conversation

May 28, 2011
You know those days when your mind is heavy with thoughts, but when you sit down to type them out ... nothing comes? I'm not really sure whats floating around in my head today. A bit of everything. I feel like I have this heavy thing weighing on my mind. Wishin I had someone to chat with. Have one of those great lazy afternoon conversations about nothing and everything.  
 But alas I am surrounded by my three beautiful nieces who would rather talk about why the sky is blue and why littlest pet...

Jehovah's wonders.

May 27, 2011
Just watched The Wonders of Creation Reveal Gods Glory with Purdee.  Her little eyes were fixed to that TV screen like it meant her life. And after she looked at me and said, "our wonderful father is Jehovah huh mommy?"  Made my heart well up with joy.  Purdee informed me she was going to ride an elephant and Im going to ride a shark.  Can you imagine what it would be like to swim with a bunch of jelly fish?  Can you imagine that first time you attempt to do it?  When you know you wont be har...

aaahhh a nice cold beer

May 26, 2011
LaLaLaLaLa....good day today!  Sarah came over and her, mom and I goofed around.  Than I went for a run.  Just two miles but I ran sprint drills.  I was told they help your muscles get used to running at a faster speed.  And I had those stupid little ear buds in for my ipod.....they just pop out every two feet.  I heard a saying once.....If your frustrated...count to four.....if your angry....swear.  But you didnt hear that from me because of course I would never ever swear....ever. :-)

sad

May 24, 2011
I must say, I'm a bit down tonight.  Had a good slow day.  Worked on my impossible talk, played with the kids. Washed my jeep and made it service appropriate.  Than after the kids bath, while I was getting them ready for meeting.  I was informed by my daughter, that she is tired of me being "bad"  and that she wants to go be with daddy because she loves him and he is nice to her.  I asked her how daddy was nice to her and she said, he lets me do what I want, you dont. Your mean and make me go...

bruised butts and pioneering

May 23, 2011
Roller skating was hilarious....needless to say I will not be on any champion teams any time soon.   There is also nothing attractive about long flailing arms and legs and lots of butt action on the ground!!!  That didnt sound right did it?
So my last few weeks haven't been super busy.  They were my break for these next few months.  Crazy busy with appointments, field service, jobs to get done, kids to watch, races to be in and regular life in between to live.  I gotta be at Sarahs at 6am to w...

Meeting was so nice today.  Sarah and Mike had a talk out of town so I have Lucy and Libby.  They were so good.  I was even complimented by the brother who gave the talk on how my children sit so ...
