Let's Play Catch Up

I have so much to say and so little time to say it! Things are busy around here which is really our normal. I am okay with it for the most part. I come home from either work or school everyday and have about 30 minutes of laying flat on my face in bed for 30 minutes before I pick up those creatures we lovingly call children. Children are scary sometimes. And exhausted. But so darn cute at the same time.

I have a little bit of time in between classes today so I decided to take the time and play catch up. I should be working on assignments. I miss my blog though. And comments. And reading about your life.


See this picture?

That's my boy making 67 yard touchdown. He's basically a power house on the football field. It's been a stunning revelation to us all. He's really truly amazing. That's not just Momma talking. The entire coaching staff tells me it every single practice. It's pretty cool but I would love him even if he was awful and still think he was amazing, because really he is one amazing kid.

That oldest child of mine? She's pretty amazing herself. She started playing the clarinet this year in band. She LOVES it. It makes her incredibly happy. They did their chair test last week which I knew nothing about and she comes home telling me she made 1st chair out of 8! That pretty much means she's awesome. Sooo proud of her and better yet she is soo proud of herself!

My children? They ROCK.

The wee little punk of mine is doing fantastic herself. She is loving school and really coming out of her shell. She is less shy and finally makes instant friends with other children she has never met. Two months ago, she wouldn't do that at all. It's really exciting to see her finally open up to others. She misses me though and I have to say I secretly love that. She enjoys going to school but she asked me the other day if I miss her when she is gone and I said, "yes very much, I miss our cartoon mornings and hold your hand." She said, "Me too Momma, I miss laying in your bed while you laugh at Micktey Mouse with me." Baby girl, you have no idea how much Momma misses you. The rare times I am at home by myself, I miss my partner in crime so much.

It's an odd feeling having all three children in school now. They are just all so big and growing up so fast. I know people say that all the time but wow, it really is fast. I mean I have an 11 year old that I have to go buy her first real bra for soon. The 8 year old who is my constant stubborn mule is entirely too smart for his own good and knows how to work his Momma a little to well. Then my baby, who should still be running around in diapers is now a big school girl. When the hell did that happen?

I need new pictures. I was going through and looking for some of all of us to post here. Umm yeah...I have nothing new. I have a bunch of football pictures that need to be sorted but nothing of all of us. Must fix that soon. Until then my lovelies, I am off to my next class. Enjoy the rest of your week and know I miss the blogging community.
