Almost...

I think I see the light at the end of the tunnel!
I'm hoping that I'll be able to share my secret tomorrow!
Please understand that I'm keeping a closed mouth on this because I've been talking TOO MUCH about it for the last few days. I realized that I needed to shut up and listen. It was almost as if God was saying if you would just hush up I can lead you! But if you keep talking you can't hear me!!
Thank you to all who have "heard" about it, thank you to those who shared their kind words, thank you to those who prayed and a HUGE thank you to Todd (he basically got hourly updates...for the last 5 days!!!).

Love you all!

PS My heart doesn't hurt today!

Shhh...it's a secret.

I have a secret.
No, I'm not pregnant.
No, I didn't get a new job.
No, it not a financial thing.
No, it's not a "good" one.
Intrigued?
I'm totally struggling with something and I've become obsessed.
I worried about it all day yesterday.
I'm sad.
I can't stop thinking about it now.
My heart hurts.
Pray that God will open and close some VERY obvious doors and when it's all over, I'll tell you my secret.

Yeah!

And look now there is 8! Double digits here I come! So now I can keep blogging :-) (It's the little things that keep me going.) Thanks Mom, Linda, Bethany, Tara, Leah, Jame, Kim & Aunt Linda!

Jayden's first day of Pre-K

M: How was you first day of Pre-k?
J: Good (imagine Cheshire cat smile)
M: Did you do art today?
J: No
M: Music?
J: No
M: Story time?
J: Yes
M: What was your favorite part of the day?
J: Popcorn!

From the mouth of a babe.

J: Mom, we got to get a new baby.
M: Why?
J: This one is too noisy.
(I wonder why it took him 16 months to figure that one out!)

16 months old.

First day of school...sort of

As most of you know, I go back to work earlier than most teachers. August 4th was my first day back and therefore the boys' first day back too. Here is all three of us, at 6:15 AM mind you, on our first day back!

Kennedy Space Center

Our last week of summer vaca Todd & I realized we didn't "go" anywhere for a summer vacation. As a last ditch effort we decided to go to Kennedy Space Center. Jayden has been talking about a Rocket Ship birthday party for the last few months. We thought he would really enjoy seeing the real rocket ships. Except for the swarms of mosquitoes and lack of hands on things for three year olds to do we had a good time. Our nephew Austin joined us too.
