Three....Not Quite!

We decided to throw a party for Nathan before daddy leaves for Alabama.  For a few reasons, first we wanted to see as many as we could before we leave and second Nathan's birthday is the end of April in which we will have zero friends around us by then.  

We got to see 40+ of our closest friends and family and it was a blast! I'm not sure how we are blessed to have so many great friends and they will be missed!  HUMBUG!  I can't even type without getting teary.  

I don't think one person read the "no gifts please".  Nathan is very grateful for those that chose to ignore it or just don't care. For those that got the girls something too, Thanks!  I on the other hand have to pack more stuff.  ERRRR!

I have to say Nathan put on quite a show.  I have one friend that can relate.  1 baby boy + 2 older sisters = HAM!  He is a hoot and is great for a laugh or five hundred in a day.  We all love our baby that is turning three.  Poor guy will always be my baby boy!  

Nathan was very excited about the party and changed his mind a hundred times but once the picked the Spider-man cake that was it. Spider-man?  What is the fascination?  He really has no clue, but Spider-man it was.   He really wanted to "whack" a pinata.   I spent $22.99 on an empty pinata!  Why so much for paper in the shape of a super-hero?

Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook

It has been 24 days since I changed my password and logged off Facebook. I have logged on twice to see if anyone messaged me and logged back off. Which I am glad that I did because someone messaged me about math tutoring. The only thing I missed was if someone had had their baby. I was interested to know and while I tried so hard to stay off Facebook I did search her name just to see if she had the baby. Then I thought if she did have the baby and I don't know then are we really friends?   We are not friends by the true definition, just virtual Facebook friends. Top 10 Things I Don't Miss About Facebook 1. Selling of Rodan & Fields, LuLaRue, 31, Ketones or Scentsy.  I like some of these products and support you 100% and hope you do well.  The multiple posts on your product daily but nothing else in your life, blah. 2. Bragging. I love to see pictures of your vacation, if it isn't the only time you are on Facebook. 3. Posting fake news. 4. Making a comment I ...

Queen of Google

Day in and day out I am frustrated with myself because I didn't take the time to write.  I want to write but I find myself not writing anything but thinking about writing.  I love to read and make time for reading but I find myself often just thinking about writing and not actually writing.   I am not sure what will ever motivate me to write daily.  Being a mom to three tween/teens in a huge job.  Especially when one is being homeschooled this year.  I find myself saying things like, when the dishes are done or when the laundry is done then I will write.  Just let me check all this school work first and then I will write.  When it is quiet, I will write.  This could be why I never write.  It is never quiet in this house.   Today I have had enough.  I am not about new year resolutions but I am going to make the commitment today to write daily.  I ideally would like to write not just for the blog but novel writing. ...

One Word Can Actually Make a Difference

I choose not to work. I do understand that people don't have a choice and have to work outside of the home for a pay check to buy food and shelter.  One parent in my house must work. I also feel some don't really have to work and choose to work for luxury items.  I have talked to people that say there is no way they could be a stay at home parent and choose to go to work. Why do we as parents belittle each other in our choices.  Recently on Facebook (some say a necessary evil, but I think it is just evil) A parent commented   "...for the parent that actually works".  Wow, only one word makes that sentence sting.  I try not to let these words on Facebook hurt me or give them a second thought but I am a wordy person and I think about words.  The sentence takes a different tone if it was written, "for the parent that works".  The word "actually" implies negative things to those that don't work. For the parent that works I understand that a 30 ...
