Today

You know, just when I think things cannot get any worse - they do.

Just when I think that I cannot take any more - something bigger is thrown at me and I discover that I can.

As soon as I feel overwhelmed, and am ready to turn my back on the world - a dirty, sticky, slobbery kiss from a two year old makes the world right.

Summer Time

My kids are going to drive me to the nut house. I am serious. I only work Monday, Wednesday and Friday so I am off on Tuesdays and Thursdays with the boys. God help us.

The Time of My Life

Okay, so I suppose there are times I have had more fun, but at the moment, I cannot think of any. My dear dear friend Lydia, whom I met on the internet while pregnant (even though she only recalls me after we gave birth) with my youngest son Braden, and her family drove all the way from their comfort zone in PA to the flint hills of KS. They arrived on Thursday, and stayed through Monday evening. We did not do anything super exciting, but I had a blast. We played with the kids, and went on short day trips. In the evenings, we ate good food and drank wine. I was nervous about them coming and Jeremy being a jerk. I worried for nothing. Jeremy had a wonderful time and impressed me with his instant befriending of Derek. We are hoping to travel East in the Fall/Winter - and it was all Jeremy idea and suggestion! YAY!

If I can remember how, I will upload a few pictures...
