Kids-Cant stand em, but ya miss em.

 Its funny the way it works. They drive me criminally insane one moment, but the moment they are out of my reach or sight, I must admit... I miss them. I wonder what they are doing, if they are behaving themselves, if they think about me, and I can't wait to see them again. Until, I see them again, they fight and argue and drive me back into my insanity. I guess its that absence makes the heart grow fonder thing? Regardless. Promise was gone most of Spring Break. As much as I loved the peace and quiet around the house without her here. I worried. Was she having a good time, was she behaving, did she have a clean pair of underwear, brush her teeth, shower, cry, if she got hurt could the mom she was staying with make her feel better like I can???

 I did not blog over spring break. I was in my white room with padded walls most of the week I suppose. No time for blogging in there.

 Bailey lost a tooth, and explained how he did not believe, anymore, in the "tooth fairy" and then he looked at me as if I were going to fess up to it being me. Regardless he put that tooth under his pillow 2 nights and the tooth fairy never did come. Then he told me it seemed ODD that while I Had no cash, the tooth fairy had not come... Hmmmm. So I quickly got cash and that night shoved some money under his pillow, but the tooth could not be found without ample searching and I did not want to wake him up, and PROVE to him that I was indeed the tooth fairy herself.

 So the next day he is excited about his money and tells me she did not take his tooth. He tried giving it to me. What on earth would I do with it???? I would not take it. Last night, almost 4 nights after tooth fairy's visit he tells me that it is still under his pillow and the tooth fairy had not gotten it. I said I thought you did not believe in the tooth fairy anymore though? I dont he said I think its either God, or Jesus.

 Destiny walked into the bathroom where Bailey had recently done #2 and apparently not flushed. Another lovely thing you deal with when having children, How much toilet paper do you need to use??? How much BUTT DO YOU HAVE??? She asked Bailey.

 This week has been dragging on, its only Wednesday and it feels like I should have had 3 Fridays by now.

 The eyeglass place finally called to let me know my contacts where in... I went there, picked them up to find I only had 2 boxes... Not QUITE a 6 month supply since they last 3 weeks each and each box had only 6 packs.. Then, I realize when I get home BOTH boxes are contacts for my LEFT eye. I called. Oh yeah, the ones for my RIGHT eye are on back order, and should be in in 2-3 days where then I will get to drive ALL The way to the OTHER side of town AGAIN and pick that side up. Im sorry, we should have waited to call you and tell you they were in.... Uh ya THINK? I guess I could wear a patch? :OP RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

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...
