Mommy HELP!

The other day I was happily reading my book when I got a call from the bathroom. Now it is not unusual for me to get a shout out from the bathroom.
I seem to be the favorite when it comes to bathroom rescues. I guess I am the best at retrieving TP, smashing bugs, cleaning up various surfaces (some cuter then others), and just plain conversationalist when things become long and boring.
But this call was a little different, it was a desperate cry and the mama came running.
"Whats wrong?"
"My ear is making a funny sound."
"Like a ringing sound?"
"Yes."
"Ears just do that when they are practicing listening." Sometimes Moms make-up stuff. It is our prerogative.
The short legs start swinging on the toilet again. "Oh, I thought I was dying."
And I thought my life was stressful!

Feeling oh so Good

This day has been a long time in coming. Last week was really hard and I had a hard time doing anything but sleeping
BUT this week
has been completely different.
I am singing and dancing and I'll tell you all about the things I have planned about saving money so that I can spend it and the projects I have planned or am planning to do and how I'm going to get into shape and the things I'm going to do for my husband and the things I'm going to do for my kids and the things I'm going to do for myself and for the state of Idaho and for the United States and the things I'm going to do for the World, if only people would ask me...

Mothers Day

This Mother's Day was the best yet.

I got breakfast in bed.

Cold cereal

Glass of Milk

2 toasts heaped with grape jelly

After Church the hubby and kids made a wonderful dinner.


Mother's Day wouldn't be complete without lots of lovely letters and pictures.


From the girls I got beautiful letters stating:

I know you love me because I am gentle and kind

Mom, I love you because you are nice and remember me.

The notes contained different sized and colored hearts


From the man child he made comments like:

I know you love me because you make me food

Mom, I love you because you make me snacks.

The note contained a picture of fighting guys in a car.


Truly this was the best Mother's Day EVER
