my sweeties

4.6.09


Just wanted to post this pic because I think it captures my dear Ashlyn’s mothering to her brothers. We had an “eggstravaganza” at our church Grace Valley Fellowship yesterday. It was beautiful weather and loads of families from the community came out for it. Not only was the egg hunt (or rather, egg gathering since there wasn’t really any hiding involved) fun, but the addition of the moonbounces was a big hit with all the kids, particularly my boys. Drew and Evan must have done the obstacle course moonbounce nearly 50 times. It was a bit challenging for me not being able to talk really. I talked just a little but I definitely used up all my words for the day. So, I didn’t speak the rest of the day at all. And, I’m hoping to go all day today with no talking since my mom is coming today to help. This pic was when they were standing in line for one of the moonbounces.

    Now that’s a sweet sister. I love my little sister…but I know she was never very sweet to me when we were younger…:) Ashlyn is pretty special that’s for sure!

    So hope you feel better soon Kelly. So glad your mom is coming to help. Hang in there. Praying for you my friend.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. Right after you posted I noticed the 9th on RQ!!!!! YEAH. Maybe this is the beginning of the “speed up” we’ve been hearing about for years now. I’m at least praying that it is. I’m not very computer savy, but I am going to try & “follow” your blog. Nice to “meet” you by the way.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
