Proud Mama Moments

 I am horrible. I will get on here and gripe or complain until I am blue in the face but when my kids are AWESOME then I never speak a word of it.

 So let me just say my kids are AWESOME. I had Hannah's parent teacher conference, and was not only told how smart and helpful she is in class (which I already knew) but that she catches on SO quickly to the new lessons that the teacher is going to start teaching her somethings and letting HER teach it to the class, and help them to better understand it! She is simply amazing. Her benchmark scores were all in the advanced areas, well above meeting standards. That little girl is smart.

 Promise is doing so well with Volleyball she's always going to practice and working hard. She doesn't complain at all and she is just amazing too. She has all A's and B's so far this year as well which surprised me with all the extra things she's doing I am impressed that she can handle it and keep up with her grades. She's also been a lot less mouthy but I think its just that the couch wears her ass out before she gets home, which I am fine with, and thankful for!

 Bailey is still adjusting to the new school. I think he managed to find his way around and all that very quickly. Finding friends I guess is not going as well... Although he knows some kids and doesn't eat alone anymore... I think he's missing the old group he hung with... He even asked to go back one day, to his old school, but I think he just had a bad day that day... He has not mentioned it again. He wants to try out for basketball, which is the end of this month, hopefully he makes the team and then friends will come along with that.

  Destiny has been job searching for nearly a month and today, SHE STARTED HER FIRST JOB!!! She interviewed and took a drug test and started work today. 5 hours of work. She said her feet hurt. My mother in law told me that now is when she will start realizing how the world works, and about earning a living and all that, and I am glad, I know she has matured about so many other things this year, and I am so impressed with the young woman she is turning out to be.

 I am so very proud of each of my children and impressed with them all. Its amazing how different they all are, even when raised together in the same household.

 I am so proud this week, of ALL my children

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...

 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 ...
