November 12

Time just slipping away.....

Can't believe it's November 12. I haven't opened my blog for months and months. I think about it all the time when the kids tell me things that happen, or I have a story that I wish I could tell someone.... then my crazy life happens and the thought just slips away. This summer and soccer season were INSANE...and I didn't complete my ONE year blog wish. Dang.

There is so much that came out of the months and that still happens in our daily lives. I see my kids thinking big and outside of their needs all the time. CJ wants to donate all her Christmas and Birthday Money. She wants to buy clothes and presents for kids in need. Just tonight Cole asked me to give him his $5.00 in my purse so he could donate it to the guy freezing outside Walmart, ringing his bell for donations to his red box. Kendall is always helping kids and classmates and her teacher, which her teacher GREATLY appreciates...I don't know if making this yearly deal together changed it, or it's just who my kids are...either way, it makes my heart LARGE and full.

Maybe I'll start writing again now that life has settled a bit as the winter comes in. So much has happened these past months. I keep falling deeper and deeper in love with people, especially my oldies. I just think they are amazing and they make every single day of mine, worth something and great. How lucky am I to work somewhere that I get to love on them, everyday.

So.. here's to a night with two of my kids..by the fire...eating chocolate. There is a pug, snoring really loudly and a few other pets sleeping nearby. Missing my husband at the moment who is paving the way for our next adventure in Colorado. I've come to see that I am pretty good with change and I am up for it. God has had to work that in painfully and I am all the more grateful for it. : )
