Well, another Monday crossed of the calendar. Sometimes it feels so good to do that but then most days...well...it's another day gone. I wonder did I make it matter? Especially as a wife, mother, friend it is tough to please everyone and yourself and where do you draw the line? You could get so wrapped up in it that you forget who you are. I'm on a quest to remember who I am, what I like to do, where I want to go, goals I want to fulfill. This will be a long journey and a tough one because I want to be everything for everyone. I need to learn how to say no and not feel guilty. I need to learn how to say yes to myself and not feel guilty. I want to be who God made me to be in the light of the cross. So for my first goal...I am going to declutter my home and my heart. I cannot focus on God, my husband, my children with stuff and issues blocking the way. Tomorrow's dawn will be fresh and fruitful! (It's all in the attitude, right?) We went to Goldilock's open house for school today! I can't believe it is here. He is sooo excited...hugged all of his friends when we got there. We get to pack a lunch everyday in our pirate lunch box...too cool! Punka has been homeschooling for almost 2 weeks now. It is going well. We have been taking it pretty easy until Goldilocks get back to school. That will give us the time we need to work while minimizing the distractions. She lost her 5th tooth today. One more on top and she will look like a "jack-o-lantra" in her words! Gigi turned 6 months old today. I can't believe it! Time has flown by and I just want to put everyone into slow motion until I can catch up. They are so yummy...I want to linger in these days longer than they will let me...how sad. Soon this season will be over and I'll want to come back to the days of no sleep, craft projects everywhere, Buzz and Spidey, Barbie and babies, snack time, "can we play in the rain" while it's lightning, PBSKids, reading time, pirates, nail polish (ok, maybe not that!), "I lost a tooth", "I want to loose a tooth", and "I cut a tooth". Oh, what a day in my life over the edge.
