Maybe I should blog from my phone?

 I can do it, and I am able to get on my phone way more often than the laptop here lately.

 My days have consisted of working cooking, dealing with kids until I drop into bed on a soft pillow and dream of doing what I had already done all day, waking up feeling like I never slept. Welcome to motherhood!

 Hannah finally got over whatever it was she had, I think the flu but the dr. said it was not. Regardless now Destiny is feeling badly. It never ends. On the bright side she stays in her room and I don't have to hear her teenage mouth when she is feeling badly. I am a horrible mother! Oh and her boyfriend, whom I have yet to meet, has given her a RING. For Valentines day. Wow little dude, does he not realize she dates, and dumps boys in like a months time?

 Promise has been making up for Destiny feeling badly by taking over the teenager mouth. Its great. Plus she argues about every.thing. and is always right so its much fun. SO much fun! She is doing well in school and has been walking home with a boy, and he comes over to visit now and then as well... Wow. They grow up so fast!

 Hannah just got in her shipment of scout cookies and is delivering them today. She is so excited to have sold so many boxes! I think she sold like 127 or something! GO Hannah! Oh and at her PT conference her teacher told me she is at the TOP of the class!!! She could read ABOVE 2nd grade level at the START of 2nd grade so she doesnt even need anymore testing done in that area. He said she always does, turns in and understand her work. She is always the first one done and asks for more work, so he's had to get extra things to keep her occupied while she waits for others to finish. She is creative in her writing and thinks outside the box of what everyone else writes about and he thinks she is just awesome (as do I) "She does have a bit of an attitude though.... She knows she is right and does not like it when people try to tell her otherwise or argue." Yeah? Tell me something I didn't already know?!

 Bailey also got a good report! His teacher said she has seen MUCH improvement in him this last quarter, still a day dreamer but he does his work first and then day dreams. He is more organized and even social. She said she thinks he has matured quite a bit this year! He is also no longer in the class to help with reading because he has met his goal there! He was very proud of this so I already knew, but it was nice to hear it from the teacher. As long as he stays above the goal line he will not have to go back into the class for help. He did not like the class so he said he will work very hard to stay at or above his goal!

 So I cannot complain about any of that. My kids are wonderful and bright and funny. Yes they argue and try to kill each other at home, but hey, at least they have manners when they are out and about (most the time). I can't say any of that is really my doing, but I guess I must be doing something right.

 I love my kids and my husband and lately even my job. I was just offered dental and vision insurance! In June I will be up for Health benefits as well! I feel so grown up. It means I have to work a few more hours, but I guess I am okay with that, more money in my pocket anyway and that is never a bad thing.

 So there you have it, your caught up in the life of Clorie for now. I think I might start blogging from my phone each day, a picture and a paragraph at least. I love having my blog to look back on and see where i was and what I was doing. Also it saves those funny stories I need to remember to tell the grandkids or the girls Boyfriends later in life!

 Till next time!

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...

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!?" ...

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...
