What a good and normal week

I have had a good week and it was about as normal as we can get. I got to go back to work on Thru. and Eddie did not have to work late at all. Thru. a wonderful friend from church watched Brooklin and is helping me out again on Tues. Mason has had a great week in school, he had good behavior all week and got in the treasure box (as usual) we are truly blessed to have such a good boy. Today the kiddos and I went to our local arts fair, we had a great time and ate curly fries. Eddie is working on his Mustang, putting on a new door. I am glad that he has an outlet for all that testosterone. ( I hear lots of grunting and head scratching from out there) Well here is hoping for another good week.

The start of a new week

Thank God for a start of a new, fresh week!!! Last week was a stressful and busy week for my whole family and I am so thankful for a new day and a new outlook for this week. Mom is doing good and has a great attitude for her recovery and I really think she will be better than before in some ways. My sister and family started their long drive home this morning and I return to work on Thru. I feel as though life is starting to look something like normal again. Poor Mason is so tired this morning when I got him up for school he said "I have only been asleep for 5 min Mom. I am so tired." Tonight I think we will all go to bed early. Brooklin has been a handful this past week as her routine was sooo out of whack, hopefully this week will be better. Once again thank you all for you prayers and support, I know that it will get better and better every day.

My mom is home

Thank you all for you support and prayers this past week. My mom came home yesterday evening and is doing pretty good, I think she is looking better and better everyday. It is going to be a big adjustment for her in the coming weeks to move more and eat healthy but we are all here to help her and I know she can do it. We are setting up her doctors appointments today, after that we will know just what her recovery will intell. Again thank you all for your prayers, please keep praying for her recovery and that she will have a healthy and active life in the future.

My mom

As many of you know my mom had heart attack on Sun. evening, thankfully my dad was home and rushed her to the local ER. Shortly after getting to the ER they care-a-flighted her to Baylor Hospital and started surgery immediately where they put in a stint and cleaned her arteries. She spent all of Monday in CCU and is now in a regular room. They have not told us when she can come home or about recovery yet. I know all of you know how loved my mom is by all and I just wanted to ask everyone to keep her in you prayers.

My bummer day

Well today I just need to have a pity party. Today is my 8th Wedding Anniversary and it has been a real bummer of a day. I worked this morning and my student were out of control today then, this afternoon I went to a funeral for my great cousin (my mom's cousin and close friend) and to top it all off my husband now has to work until at least 7:30 tonight. All in all I have seen my husband 10 min today and now it looks like that might be all I see of him today. I do not even know if I will get chance to give him his card today. Ok I know that it is not the end of the world but I really wish we could have some time together today. Now that I have had my little pity party I feel a little better.

I want to share

Ok I know some of might already know about Freecycle but I want to share with y'all who don't. Freecycle is a great yahoo group that is for people to get rid of or receive all kinds of stuff for free!! Things like clothes, tables, lawn equipment, books, toys, you name it you can get or get rid of it on Freecycle as long as you are giving it away or can pick it up. It is great, there are different groups for each area and you can join as many as you wish, for example I joined the Rockwall group and the Wylie group because I did not mind driving to Wylie to pick things up. A few weeks back I posted that I needed clothes for the kids by the next hour I was on my way to pick up 2 large sacks full of clothes for Mason, they were great clothes in wonderful shape. I have also gotten rid of some of the kids things that where grown out of. I love this and I thought some of you might like it as well.

A wonderfully lazy Friday

Well last night was my Mom's night out and we had a blast (as usual). I am truly blessed to have this women in my life, to learn from, lean on, and laugh with. Needless to say I am a little tired for going out and having fun. So, Brooklin and I have enjoyed a lazy Friday together. Brooklin is doing well without her passy she has not even asked for it all day today. Mason had so much fun at his gardening club yesterday, he planted baby carrots and radishes. He is such a good child and a fun kid to be around I enjoy just being with him everyday. Well my bon bons and house shoes are missing me so ....... ;)

No More Passy

Brooklin has thrown away all of her passies ( pacifiers) as of yesterday. We had a rough night and morning but nap went well and we are determined to buy no more passies. She has also started showing a great interest in going potty, she has already potted two times and sits on it at least twice a day. My baby girl is get to be a big girl so fast. And then Mason is such a big kid now!! He has joined the schools gardening club that starts tomorrow(he is so excited). Well just wanted to share some milestones with y'all.
