Fooled Ya!

Yesterday, a Sunday, upon leaving the house I noticed the flag was up on the mailbox. "Why is the flag up on the mailbox?" I wonder aloud. "Because." replies Bailey, "I wanted to TRICK the mailman!" Giggles from the boo. What a silly boy. Its things like that they do that makes me so glad I got the opportunity to be a mom.

Its times like today, when the only thing they can do is call mean names and fight and smack and hate each other, that I wonder what the hell I was thinking!!! I guess like anything there are good days, and there are bad. As long as the good are better than the bad... well your good. Right?

Middle school orientation was today for Destiny. Big school. Crazy full of kids, most taller than me. It kinda made me miss school though. I loved school, yeah, I was a freak like that. Going from class to class, my locker, teachers, school lunch even. I loved it. I guess because I was home schooled for the most part, the small amount of time I did go to a "real" school, I Just soaked it all in and enjoyed.

Maybe I could register? Like I said, I was shorter than half the kids there (okay more than half lol) No one would know. Well the gray hair might tip em off... That and Destiny calling me mom. :o)

Today my dinner was not appreciated. I told the kids I am opening up cans of crap from now on. No more of my lovely recipes, no more working hard. Plop a can of whatever into a bowl and heat it up. I feel unappreciated. Whats new?

The pitter patter of little (annoying) feet!

 I remember when my kids were little and innocent and said super cute things. It still happens sometimes, but not nearly as often. They no longer pitter patter, they clomp. Things change, kids grow.  Luckily I still have my little neighbor girl Adriana. She comes over to play with the big kids quite often and is almost always a hoot. From taking her to the "lime berry" to just silly things she says. Tonight was one of those nights.  I have not slept much and wanted a nice relaxing bath... As I am headed in there, Adriana asks me what I am doing... I tell her I am about to take a bath. "can I take one with you?" Uh.... I have  a vision of myself as Micheal Jackson...No baby, you cannot take a bath with me.... So I am in the tub, and after a while Tim came in to bring me towels... So he was in there visiting with me, and Adriana knocked and asked if she could come in... Tim told her no. "Why? Because Clorie is NAKED??? What are YOU doing in there TIM!?" ...

some days

 The kids are just cute. I know I normally talk about how bratty they are. but today, well today they were just cute. All of them, even Destiny. Believe it or not.  Hannah came down the little car line to get into the van and she was smiling and so happy, and so dang cute. Promise had a friend over part of the day Bailey played mario and Destiny told me my shirt looked like a hobo shirt (it was Tims)  Today was just a good day. not sure what made it that way. the kids mostly got a long, there were a few SHUTUPS tossed out but for the most part it was pretty peaceful. I wish more days, were like today.  I went to Lowe's today to get a shelf thing to put in our laundry room. Its so exciting! TO think a shelf would be nice here, and then think YEAH, I'll put one in. See we can do that, cus we OWN our house! :) Its awesome!  I got a few more seeds today. Sweet baby peppers, zucchini and squash too. Yum. I really hope something grows this year. I am SO sore f...

Love the one your with.

 My mom and I were talking and lately her relationship is what I guess we could call complicated. During our conversation she stopped and asked me "Are you happy with Tim?" without hesitation I answered "yes".She told me that she knew he loved me and she was so glad I could be happy.  Later I was thinking about it. I have wondered is he "it" is he the one. How can I be sure, how is anyone ever sure? We have been together for almost 9 years now. Granted we've had our issues, but every night he comes home to me, and every morning he's next to me in bed. He loves me, he provides for me, and I love him and provide for him. Together we are raising four wonderful children.  Do I still get butterflies when he walks though the door? Well, honestly, no. Do I still miss him the moment he walks away... Again no, sometimes I am more than happy to see him leave for the evening and go to work... Does that mean I love him any less than I did when our love was...
