Guess what today WAS!!!!!!



Yup, it was that very first day of school. I could hear all the mom's cheering as the teachers walked the kids inside to start the new year. Okay maybe only in my mind were we all cheering. I have to say this summer really went by fast. So many people asked me if I was ready for the kids to go back to school. I smiled a great big smile and said YUP. I am ready for school to begin. Ryan is now going to school year round, B is a senior this year, Sarah is in 7th grade and thinks this will be the best year! Noah is now in 4th grade. Hold it, yup he is in 4th grade. I don't really know how that one happened. I swear he was just in 1st grade yesterday. Nope 4th grade. I have to say that I have a hard time with that one. Oh well, reailty check. Sarah was very excited this morning as I woke her up by calling her cell phone. She jumped out of bed and couldn't wait to get going. I on the other hand wasn't quite ready to get up but I did. Next came Noah. He was easy to wake up because he was in my room. It seems I have a sleepwalker in my house. He doesn't remember coming into my room and sleeping on the floor. He likes to go downstairs and turn on every light in the house. He is going to the Dr. soon to be checked out. Can't wait to find out what we can do about this. Well back to the subject of school. Noah is excited for 4th grade and really seems to like his teacher. He said this should be a great year. I think he is excited about getting letter grades instead of just numbers. I know I am. These are our First day of school pictures we do every year. I read (a long time ago) about making a sign and taking thier pictures every year and making a poster of thier 1st day pictures when they graduate. I thought that was a great idea and have been doing that ever since. B doesn't like it but the others do. Speaking of B, She had her senior pictures taken today. We went to a studio and they take a bunch of pictures of her and the one for the year book. She looked so nice. She fought me about taking them for quite sometime but finally said to me "thanks for making me do this. It was fun". Okay I got back up into my chair. She is very grateful for the things we do but she did not want to get these pictures done. I insisted. We should get them in about a week. How cool. I can't wait. Well it is getting late and I have to make sure the kiddos wash behind their ears. So feel free to call me we can do lunch, sit around and eat bon bons all day...... Okay, I woke up but it was a nice dream.

Alot has happened in the last two months. First let me start with Sarah and her DEBUT singing. She is in a class where they learn from music and they put show on. She loves singing (I have no idea where she got that just kidding). I knew she could sing but I didn't really know she could really sing. I was sitting in the audience that first night of the show all proud but when she got up to sing the last song of the night I was BLOWN AWAY! She had me speechless. I hope she makes you speechless as well. This class is really a nice class. She has alot of friends in the class. I have been given glances into the woman Sarah is becoming and it takes my breath away. Wow is all I can say! It doesn't look like the video is going to work tonight so I will have to do it tom. after I get home from work. Wish it would save! I was going to put up one of Noah as well but I guess I will have to do it tom as well. He got to sing at Church with the Adult choir. He sang Away in a Manger verses 1 ...

How can my heart hurt anymore? What do I have to learn to stop the heart ache?

How can we say goodbye to someone that means the world to you? How do you let them go? The pain and hurt that we feel is so unreal. Grandma left this earth November 17, 2019. 9 months, and 15 days after Mom left.  Two women that helped to mold me into who I am today, left me.  They are no longer here to ask questions of, or laugh with, learn of the past from. They left. The pain of losing them will never leave me.  How could it?! They taught me to be the women I am today.  Grandma was someone who always excepted me. Always showed me how to love others. Listen to others.  Care for others.  Really, just to be there for others when I am needed.  The pain I feel is indescribable.  I have never had my heart broken like this before.  Never had to face anything so hard.  You see, I was so Blessed when it came to losing people I loved.  The first person I loved, that I remember losing, was my Grandfather, George. G randad was someone ...

Happy 4th of July!

Okay so today is the 4th of July and I was looking for a cool picture of a flag to put on my blog. I really didn't see on I liked. But I found this picture of the sky I took when we went to Maryland to visit Aunt Betty a few years ago. I think the sky may have looked like this on that morning Francis Scott Key wrote the National Anthem. Today is a great day for this country. I am very proud of the service men and women that have served our country. Willingly giving up a part of their lives for us. Sometimes giving up their lives for freedom. So Thank you one and all. Sometimes saying thank you just doesn't seem enough. Sometimes it is more than enough. So if you see someone in uniform just say thanks. You might just be surprised by the reaction of the service man/woman. I remember riding by the Armory a few years ago and their was a group of protesters on front of the armory. They were screaming at the men in uniform. I was angry and I could tell Mike was as well. He wanted to ...
