Birthdays and more Birthdays



WOW look at all those candles! He must be old. Yup, he turned 50 this past August. He of course doesn't look a day over 49. The kids thought it was funny to see Dad blow out so many candles this year. I was going to put a little party together however Mike requested that I don't. I guess he just wanted to be a HALF CENTURY OLD without any fanfare. I find it funny to look at him and think that he is 50. I know this year I turned 40 but I met Mike he was 33. I guess in my mind he still is. I have to say we both have changed since our first meeting. Mike had hair and I was thin. Huh, do you think that will ever happen again lol. Mike has not really had a mid life crisis yet. If he wants to have one I would suggest him waiting until the kids are out of the house. lol. Ryan really liked Daddy blowing out the candles, It took him 2 tries to get them all. I told Ryan to hold his ears that the fire alarm might go off because of all the flames. Mike said ha ha but Ryan laughed. Next we have Noah's birthday. He turned 9 this year. Boy oh boy, I can't believe he is 9. I keep looking at my children and want to know when they grew up. Granted they aren't all grown up but I remember them just yesterday as little helpless babies laying in my arms. My how time flyes! Anyway every year I make cupcakes for the kids birthday. They yake them into class for a treat and to celebrate thier day. Well I used to make them because the school board said that we can't send in sugary snacks anymore. Noah was fine with that but I am not. Noah weanted me to send in a HEALTHY SNACK! Yuck. I did, I did. I sent in those pretzel snacks with the cheese dip. Not really healthy but better than a cupcake. Anyway Noah and Mike had great Birthdays. They got what they wanted!

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 ...
