1- 8 ..2 in one week..how scary...

1. My Heart broke a little bit yesterday. We were pulling into our driveway and I asked Sondra to get Stu unbuckled. She couldn't do it..couldn't do it..Stu wasn't helping... and Sondra gives up..and Sondra goes: Well that sucks.....deep breath.... Sondra honey what did you say??... I said socks mom.....no you didn't Sondra... and then I explained to her that I didn't want to hear that word out of her mouth. It wasn't a "bad" word ..but little kids don't say that.....that is another word I will have to refrain from saying b.c. I can't really say if I say it around her or not...School.... that is the one thing I don't like that started since school. She knew she shouldn't say it... its like the Oh my God thing... I caught her saying it..we talked about it...and a few weeks later she said it and quickly corrected herself because she realized I was listening... hmm...

2. I've been listening to Bruno Mars all day..is there something that man CAN'T sing??? oh my... love it...

3. I did have to smile yesterday after I picked the kids up from Daycare and she was all excited to show me her seed she grew...I asked her what she was growing and she said a Sunflower...and I smiled and said you know that was Grandma's Favorite...her reply is... Yeah Mom I know..that's why my name is Sondra... lol..she then explained to me how her kids will name their daughter Sondra...lol :)... I made her agree she would name a daughter after her Beautiful Mother though lol...

4. Stuart..my little guy Stuart....he still isn't any closer to going potty...I have a urge just to put him in Underwear no matter what in the evening.... I just might do that tonight...I know its me..he does pretty well at school and he is wearing a pull up... they are consistent there...schedule...

5. Lately- with all these babies being born and all these babies still coming I've had so many inquiries of well your next aren't you???...I just smile...for once in my life...I don't want to cry when being questioned as to when that next one is coming...after Sondra when I got it..I just wanted to scream...WE ARE WORKING ON IT! BUT ITS NOT HAPPENING!....but these days...I laugh at the question... if God were to decide we needed a baby sooner then what we thought it would be great/fine/perfect...but my Dream is to adopt... I don't know if it is because I grew up in a "diverse" family... but its just something I need to do... I'd prefer a baby/toddler...but my big "wishlist" would to adopt through Nightlight Christian Adoptions: Snowflake Adoption Program... http://www.nightlight.org/snowflake-embryo-adoption/... I am lucky enough to have Jake on board...some people can be funny about adopting like they aren't your real family..passing your name on....but that is absurd.... my only problem.. with the snowflake adoption program fees is  : 12,000 to 16,000... and that don't include the medical fees to get eggs transferred into me...home study... :)... so more than likely... we'll go the old route of traditional adoption...but if I had a pile money laying around..or if all of a sudden it started raining money...that is what I would choose...

6. I have been blessed with some good people... My best friend's mom and dad were getting rid of their corn burner and luckily enough we were able to get it..I can't wait for it to be installed :)...It was just so funny... they are so giving always... we can not leave that house without a bag full of snacks...stopping over there last Friday to drop off money for the corn burner... and leaving with a bag full of goodies and drinks...it just made me miss my friend... immediately had to text her.....really thinking about it...my 2 best friends have great parents that are so nice to my family... I"m a lucky gal...I don't need a lot of best friends...because the 2 I got are pretty dear to me.. miss you girls

7.  This is out there..but you know...this is Easter week... tonight will begin our holy week services...and the one thing that I can't get out of my head of annoyance..especially today..is all this publicity of homosexual marriage...so many people's status' are about Marriage Equality ...or the opposite ..A Marriage should be between a Man and a woman...its just "annoying"...Truthfully...my stance..I'm a born again Christian..... I'm a conservative you know my answer..I just find it annoying its so much in focus right now...I don't care to read about it or listen...

8. well I must be going...bye :)

House/Pumpkin/2nd and ECT

How have you been??? I've got some things to say! :)

1. I'm sorry it has been so long..I can't even remember what I last blogged about but I'm sure I promised to post photos of the house...and obviously I never have and Obviously I'll probably promise at the end of this blog too and honestly I have no intentions of doing so...maybe in June..I plan on having a BBQ for the kid's birthday dinners and invite both sides of family over...that's when I'll get my house clean from head to toe..like I did for my 31 party I have in November.... My house isn't crazy messy like it always was in Lafayette...its just not what I want shown on the interest for all ages :)....

2. Just so you...My pumpkin Kitchen hasn't worn off...I love it and only wish I had more and more pumpkin things to put out...so much so I'm already thinking of ideas for my next pumpkin kitchen in our next house we plan to build after a while on the property.... ooohh yyaa..

3. Work has been good... I've been kept very busy... so I like that...I like to look down at the clock and think wow...how did it get to be 3:30 already!?

4. was interrupted by a truck driver....rrrr...he was a real smart ass too... hmm...this is why every night before I fall asleep I pray that I do my best to be pleasant to everyone there...and to shine a light....rrr..just now I wasn't exactly shining my light...but it was lit... just not real real bright..I held my tongue...that's a improvement..

5. During bible study a few weeks ago...we were talking about I don't know...but someone brought up the book "The Case For Christ"..and immediately brought me back to Sunday school... when my sister was my Sunday school teacher... and we did lessons over that book.... but it got me thinking later that night..of all my Sunday school teachers... I can remember each of them..things that I associate with them... what touched my life... how they helped me to learn certain things... but it started to make me think...what kind of teacher am I?...I haven't ever really felt called to teach...I volunteered b.c. there was a need for a teacher...I volunteered again b.c. I needed to be sure I was going to have our kid's in Sunday school..so if you teach...there is in my mind a lot of obligation of attending.... is that bad?? who knows... but while I got to thinking it kind of inspired me to research what more we could do...is there something unique that we could do a lesson over??? the next day I poured over all kinds of small group studies... looking at the prices...looking at how long they lasted then oddly enough I followed a link to www.iamsecond.com.... ooh my.. I watched my first video and had goosebumps...its just so real... these people basically telling their testimony...and its real... I thought..this is what we should do... there are ordinary people extraordinary people and celebrities too... I'm just really excited for this to start... we do our first part the sunday after easter... and I know the kid's won't be as excited or happy to do this as me lol...but for once in my life...I am feeling called...I'm feeling called to be a better sunday school teacher..and to make a impact on my "church" kids...

6. School Is moving fast... it makes me sick..Sondra's first year of Kindergarten is closer to being over than starting...eeehh

7. I'll update more later...this is going to be a priority..I miss just throwing my emotions and feelings out... Until Next time :)
