Well, I don't have a full taste of what your day consists of. However taking your kids to school and picking them up at different times of the day for 3 or 4 days was enough to know that you do a lot for your family! You are my hero! Keep up the good work, you are an excellent mom, and sister!
Oh ya, I like how you work in there watching the Price is Right!
Hang in there! You will be blessed for you diligence! I love you. E
You forgot one thing, you log on to check this blog, to see if anyone has commented. Don't forget that they grow up and one day they will drive themselves to school and wake themselves up.
Now, don't get me wrong,...I'm not complaining. I was just thinking about all that goes on in my household each day. Do I LOVE it? I don't know the answer to that....but I do like to be busy and I think I thrive on stress; and I may not always be the 'nicest' when I'm stressed.....hacuna matta...
So now you all will know that, if I don't make an effort to talk to ya or call ya or something like that it is probably because I have other things on my mind. It doesn't mean I don't like ya!
i know that you are busy, been there... but i forgot HOW BUSY, till i read this and about laughed myself off my chair...
this too shall pass and you will miss it. HA! not, i am so glad that the clingy whiney stage is over. OH WAIT. its not reallly over, it just changes. oh well. endure. but i say endure with a big smile and a candy bar!
You are a rock, Sis! You are raising God's army..
love you
That is nuts when you look at a day like that. You are amazing. Love you.
