Taking them out in public just provides even more options for entertainment. Keep reading

Tuesdays are long

Categories: Family, Life, With the Kiddos

Tuesday morning I wake up at least by 7:00 instead of 8:30 so I can make sure I’m not wearing pajamas when the garbage man comes. Lunch starts at 11:00 rather than noon so that the kids can be sleeping by noon instead of 1:00 so that I can get them up at 1:15 instead of 3:30 so they can be in the car by 1:30 so we can be at the children’s museum by 2:00 and be there for the story and craft every week.

My world

For our anniversary every year we dance to the song we danced to the night of our wedding. Tonight as we danced Brett held Izri in his arms, Shimei took turns holding each of our legs and I held the girls’ hands as they danced around us. It was a moment of joy. It’s amazing what has happened in the last 8 years. And it will continue into eternity. Keep reading

Watching you

They watch everything I do. Brett knows exactly what I say during the day because it’s what they say. You can see exactly how I treat them because it’s how they treat each other. Keep reading
