Observations & Odd thoughts

my kids don't like when I'm not home in the evenings.

I'm suppose to know where everything is....."mom where are my shoes?" well I don't know its not like I wore them last

everyone knows how to make a sandwich but apparently I make it better...with love

when I don't get enough sleep I suffer through out the day and possibly others around me...sorry

my children are growing and changing so quickly

if I don't put things out there with love then the others response isn't in love either

in the long run it is cheaper to buy the yummy ingredients that you need to make your own wonderful "Starbucks" coffee drinks

children know just when the right time to give you a hug when maybe you think you don't want one

God is always working my life even when I don't think he is

not having good luck with the little cactus plants that I brought home this summer from my mom....I at least thought I couldn't kill a cactus...seriously  :(

when your spirits are low...pay someone a complement and you both will be smiling inside and out

God gives us grace and we should give grace to others...especially our children.  When grace is given its amazing what happens next....

I'm thankful that Micah has plenty of work but its hard at times dealing with him away working.  I can't wait until his job in Camp Verde is complete.

The pantry is full, the fridge is full with food yet the kids still can't find anything for snack after school.  I really don't understand :)

I love looking at all the trees that have changed to fall colors

its odd how much better I feel about myself after shaving my legs that hadn't been shaved for a few days since the weather is cooler....funny and odd what can I say!

I'm so glad that I know how to use the grill to cook on instead of waiting for the man of the house to come home and use it....I actually enjoy grilling on the grill.

If there is just one dish in the sink for a brief amount of time...it gives the impression to the kids that the dishwasher is full and they should pile their dish in the sink too.  (the dishwasher is usually available)

I'm looking forward to seeing my mom in a few weeks for Thanksgiving.
