It just does not seem real.

 Somehow, nearly fourteen years have passed by in just the blink of an eye. How does that happen? My first born, that little round headed fat baby girl, is turning into a fourteen year old, matured almost woman in just eight short days. I do not quite understand how this happened.

 Just the other day when I went to give her some clothes at a friends because she was staying the night, as she walked up to the van I swear, it was like those commercials you see on TV. For a moment there she was, walking towards me, a little girl, like 3 and slowly right before my eyes and she got closer, she grew and it was just crazy.

 She seems like a pretty level headed child. For the most part. As far as I can see. She's a little snot to Tim and I but to her teachers, and other adults she is normally very respectful. She has shown so much improvement this year on her school work, so much in fact that her teacher sent me an email just to tell me how much she had improved.

 I can only hope that next year she starts out the year on the right foot, with these good habits already in place. I think the hopes of getting her permit (oh dear god bring on the hair dye) and getting a job so she can make money are motivating her to do well. I am just glad something, finally has!

 It has been so rainy here this past week. My garden turned pond over the weekend....I hope some of my plants survive. The ones I have in containers seem to be doing really well, but I am afraid they might be crowded, I would like to move them to the garden, but I just don't know. One day I hope to be as good as my neighbor at gardening. He has so much stuff over there growing. Its beautiful. (I hope they share again this year)

 So that is my blogginess for now. Not much else I want to put down. Bring on the sun!

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...

Salty.

 Why is it when you do something wrong, people will point it out, over and over and notice every detail, but the things that you do right... They go unnoticed for ages?  Training at work this week has been tiring. I have been super busy so its hard to actually train someone... I have to get my tables taken care of. I have the kids just getting into the swing of things with school, and training myself to go to bed early has proven unsuccessful. I basically feel over worked and under slept. As I mentioned on facebook I think there are plenty of hours in the day... I need more hours at night, to work with....  Kids are all adjusting well to school life again. Still going to sleep easily at night, which I know wont last so I am enjoying it while I can. I cannot believe I have a child who is a sophomore this year. I am still not believing that actually.  Tomorrow is super busy, we have Dr visits, I have blood work done, Girl scout meeting to attend and then a split ...
