Tommorrow is the Day

Desiree arrives tommorrow!!

I saw the Robin

Spring is finally coming. The robin made its first appearance in our yard yesterday. I am told that is the best sign that is spring is really going to be here. I am thrilled. The snow has melted, my bulbs have started popping up and the sun has found its way out again. We hit a record high of 73 on Tuesday.

I spent most of the week sick and frustrated. I lost my patience with Danny the other day and I said "please get the damn truck off of me", his response: "Its not a damn truck mommy, its a damn sticker". God bless that kid. Always finding a way to make me smile when I am down. I am finally feeling a little better. Madison made me a few Get Well cards this week. They are both so sweet.

Less than a week until Desiree arrives.

What we have been up to...

Well mostly we have been up to Brownies. Last we was our International Thinking Day and our Badge workshop at our house. We had 9 of the Brownies over on Friday to work on Try-Its. They made all their own food that day and worked on friend scrapbooks! They were so cute. They are all 1st graders and they are really cute when they are together. They get along so well and say the funniest things. We had our Thinking Day event at our regular meeting. The girls played games from around the world and sampled foods from other countries. We finished up our cookie sale too. Everything is turned in and incentives are distributed. Thank you to all who ordered cookies from Madison. She sold 176 boxes !! She was so thrilled. She earned a bunny from Build A Bear and a Tshirt plus her badges. My house is finally down to only the cookies we ordered and I am thrilled. I will finish up my leader training for Brownies this weekend. It seems like it has been a whirlwind of Brownie activities but we are having fun. They will keep us pretty busy for a while.

I registered Danny for preschool in the fall. I can't believe my little boy will be in preschool. It doesn't even seem possible. He will turn 4 a few days before he starts though. I think he is going to love it.

I wish I could be like my children...

I wish I could be more like my children...I wish that I was able to laugh when I am happy, hug when I feel like hugging, cry when I feel like crying, smile when I feel like smiling, and yell when I feel like yelling. Kids are so pure! Why do we try to teach them to change these things about themselves?
I hope they will always be this way!!
