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 ...

Cheering 101

I hope you enjoyed the video. I went to Sarah's game this past Saturday to watch her cheer. She did good and you could hear her even when she turned around. This being her first year cheering for football she seems very interested in it. Who knows she might just be a fan soon! Okay Uncles.... she doesn't have one team she likes yet, so recruit her for your team. Uncle Teddy I think she Might be leaning to the Cowboys because her friend likes them. You just never know!

Letters from the Heart

How do I say goodbye to my mom. How can I do that and not hurt? Memories keep coming to me and I laugh or I cry mostly I cry. I cry because I didn’t write down that favorite recipe she always made when we came home. I cry because I should have had more patience with her. I cry because I won’t be able to sit and have tea with her. Ever. Never again. I cry for myself. I cry for my brothers. I cry for my children and their children. How do I make this hurt any less than it does? How do I make the tears stop flowing? Is there a way to make them stop? Maybe laughter. Maybe that is the way. Remember the good times. Remember hotdog soup. Remember frying pans knocking someone out. Remember the car rides to grandmas house. Remember the summer trips. Laughing helps but not for long. Family around me will be sure to help. Getting together and celebrating her. That will help. I now know that nothing will help. I think this hurt will last the rest of my life. I don’t want this. I want my mom....
