I spent the last week in a new training class for my new job.
I started out in one area and was asked to move up. OK!!!
So I have one more week to finish my training. I think I will like
this area.

I started reading Twilight last Sunday after church. I finished reading
Eclipse yesturday. I was addicted. And it the fourth book was out
yet I would still be reading.
(My children want to burn the books. Because I have spent no time with
them, I did feed them.)
I never play the selfish mom card, ever. But this week was wonderful.
I love this set of books. She is a wonderful writer. I have never gotten
sooooo into any thing as moving as this.
LOVED IT!

Today is Emmaly and Trents 6th month anniversary!
Proud parenting moment, yet I feel so jipped. I feel like I am missing out on all of it.

Last Sunday was Fathersday. Carl and I did breakfast together at 6:30am. The first time
we have had breakfast together, with out kids since we have been parents.
Then he opened the package that Emmaly and Trent sent to him. As I sat across the room
from him, I watched him read the darling Fathersday card she made for him. Then he pulled
a wrapped gift out of the styrofoam peanuts. As he unwrapped the gift I saw that it was a frame.
With the photo there was a card addressed to "Grandpa". The frame holds the first photo of
our first grand baby! Thrilled beyond belief!!!!
Yet again so jipped, they are so far away.
I cryed for hours. Then we called, all is good. I just feel so out of their loop. Waaaaaaaaaa

Baby Dear is 11 weeks this week. We are following the growth on line.
The due date is January 3rd, 2009. It will be so exciting!
Not to mention how spoiled Baby Dear will be!!!!

Today is Sara Jessette's 20th Birthday!
It doesn't feel like there have really been 20 years since the day she was born.
She was the most beautiful baby I have ever seen. (And all mine were beautiful!)
I remember details about the night before her birth, I vividly remember the
events of her birth ( I still marvel that I had more after that). I remember the
people who came to see us at the hospital. I remember how big Emmaly all the
sudden was.
How did so much time fly past. I am so afraid of letting the next 20 whiz by.
I can not express how wonderful this child of mine is. So creative, so passionate,
so delightful. I adore her! She is one of my dearest friends!
I have been blessed with the most wonderful children. They are nothing like
I was at any age. This daughter makes me smile. She curls up in my bed late at night
and makes me giggle, I love so many things about her. I remember when the kids
where small I thought "I am so glad they are mine, I could not imagen not having
them with me" and now that they are getting big and older, I am so glad that we
have had the oppertunity to watch them become who they are. I love them each
so very much.
Sara Jessette June 3rd.... She is amazing!
