Current state of affairs... I'd like to say it is a beautiful quiet morning around here. My sweet monkeys are all still tucked into their beds, dreaming of the excitement of the first day of school tomorrow. I am armed with my coffee, inspire to reflect a bit on the week behind and the week ahead. But instead of the morning sounds we are use to hearing in our little slice of hill country (birds, breezes and the like), I am writing to the sound of a paint sprayer. Yep, a PAINT SPRAYER! Cause I need that kind of chaos right now, the day before school starts. Men don't quite understand this whole "timing" thing do they? Since John was off this week to watch the kids while I had my teacher work week, he decided it would be a fabulous time to start painting our house. Granted it IS much needed and I AM appreciative, but really??? NOW??? And it has not gone smoothly by any means. There have been countless trips to She...
Somedays I feel like I've done it all. To look at me, you might say "now that's an ordinary mom". Dig a little deeper and you'll find I've led a pretty interesting life, done some pretty extraordinary things, especially once I became a mother of four wonderful, extremely different children! Unique personalities and needs, all wonderful, trying and glorious at the same time!
