Wow... Saturday was an AWESOME day...
My husband had to work unexpectedly and he was going to watch the kids help me with the Primary activity I was in charge of. EEEEK.
So I found a place for Jack to Go - Blessing- and she ended up taking Bailee and Bringing her to the activity- Blessing 2
Right before I had to go take the kids I was feeling REALLY nauseous and tried to shove the nauseous feeling away with food (my normal tactic... It's just what I do?!?!) and I felt worse and worse till finally I just startes puking. Full on body up heavals. Since I was there alone with the kids they all came in for the show... Bailee kept asking me if I was okay I kept trying to answer between body convulsions and Jack got a stool and climbed so he could see the action better.
I finally felt as though I might be done... not feeling well, but at least able to brush my teeth and I had to leave for the primary activity. Side Note....I figured out I had taken my medicine before I ate my yogurt... APPARENTLY not the best idea... (Ben's comment was... and we learned something from this :) helpful!)
So stomach still week, Breakfast in the sink... drop off the kids, and get to Church. Set up the activity...Run the Activity.... Normal Activity Chaos... over in a few hours... Quick Break down- blessing 3
Pick up my kids... put then down for a nap, they take them- blessing 4. Ben gets home from work. I leave for work and run into Ben's Car... yea I was in tears... I guess I just scratched mine and his was unscathed-blessing 5...
Get to work stomach still funky, feeling exhausted from my day... HAVE to get some work done but all I can think about is that I have Sharing time Tomorrow... So I plan that instead of working... THAN finally get some needed work done, but I had to take some home since I spent my work time on Primary stuff...
I put the kids to bed and then CRASHED.....
GEEZ... There was more but that is the jist.... God is trying to make me see my blessings.... And I am trying to see them!

Lub!
I am so in love with my Kids!!!!
They just started their new pre-school and they have the cutest teachers. Jack walks in the school and immediately starts hugging every adult in sight... it seems everyone knows his name now and we have only been there 4 times total.
Bailee loves to talk about Mrs. Janet. She is the kind of teacher that wears baby doll dresses at the age of 50... she is really cute and loves the kids. She is also laid back which I like for pre-K, I am not the drill sergent type-if you didn't know.
As far as Jack, He just walks right into his classroom full of tearful 2 year olds and goes right to the toys after a kiss from mom... no problems... It really helps you know they are in the right place when the transition goes so smoothly!
I just am thinking how fast life is going today... Jack's Sweet slurred "I yoveyou teo" and Bailee and I cuddling last night and her asking to tell her stories of the prophet Jonah.... then Noah... When we got to the part about how Noah was in a world when all the people were wicked and made bad choices, she stopped and said she needed to say a prayer and asked for forgiveness for hitting her brother... Then after the story of Noah, she asked how God can see us and hear us... I don't REALLY have a good answer except... I don't know, but I know he can by the way I feel.
I love my babies!

Building Forts!
I don't have a ton of happy memories from my childhood... not that I didn't experience any just he bad stuff sticks in my memory and I have forgotten alot of the positive things.....
BUT.... I just remembered that my brothers and I used to build forts together in the front room with blankets and couch cushions.... I love those memories... thinking of that makes me think of the game lava where if you step on the floor you fall in to the lava so you use anything handy to get around the house with out stepping on the floor....
I want to start having "premeditated fun" with my babies... if you have good memories from your childhood... leave a comment!

Choosing the better part
I am going to be a better Mommy... I am a good mom I think but I want to be a better Mommy. You know the person that is the one you just sit and cuddle with and chat about anything... I think I am so worried about the kids getting dinner, the house and the bills and my calling that I forget to be a mommy.... Gonna make that happen!

Finding Footing
Positivity... I'm working on that...
I'm not quite sure where life is leading me right now, I am not sure if I should go for the ride and see where it takes me or need to be steering in another direction forcibly.... really unsure....
Jack Turned 2 and we had a party for him at the Park... HE loved his friends all getting together to be with him... HE was such a HAM at the table, whipping his head back and doing big belly laughs so that everyone would laugh at him... Jack is the most loving boy I have ever seen. He tells EVERYONE he loves them and trys to kiss them ALL on the lips... UMMMMMMM... If he hasn't said I love you to someone before they leave he gets quite up set... well by upset he puts on a sad face, droops his head and sulks for a min. or so. Sweetest boy ever.
Bailee is becoming more of a little girl every day. She is really coming into her emotions and learning how to deal with them. She only seems to want to talk to me about them which is a difficult task when I am the problem, but you know it is making me realize that some of these emotional outbursts may stem from me and I need to evaluate myself more and control more of my raw emotions and let them come out less frequently... so then she can learn by example hopefully!
I am also realizing that I need to make more effort to be a better friend... I have just sectioned myself off in my world and been trying to stay afloat, but maybe friends would make it more bearable to be float... I need to try more.
Go Go...

The rope has ended....
Do you ever look back in your journal and figure out you haven't changed that much in 10 years.... I mean, you have, but you haven't.... So wierd!
I had a hard day yesterday... I am being obediant to something I was asked to do that I COMPLETELY disagree with.... and am having an EXTREMELY hard time with it, wondering if I should say something.
I really want to get to the temple, but I don't think that is understood... It has been 2 years now since I have approched my ward about it- said somwthing again a few weeks ago for the 3rd time- and still no go... really frustrated right now and kinda putting this out there for guidance... UGH!
