Today...

It has been a busy week and I haven't posted each day. That is my goal to post something I am grateful for each day.

This weeks flowers...

Aaron: he is such an awesome man. He finish his first semester of college this week. I am proud of him. He was such a helper this week. He mowed the lawn even though his allergys are in full force. Ahh he is so sick. His eyes are swollen and he can't breathe. Today he was really sick. I made him a doctors appointment. He was so sweet he was like no we don't need to spend the money I will be ok. Even though he was sick he vacummed the whole house. Tykie what would I do withou you?

Sammy: Sammy has been in Hawaii. I miss her she is my sunshine.

Kineys: Is so excited to move out. I am happy for her. I am also sad...for me... I am old. I am no longer the mother who can tell her what to do. She is now an adult. How do I let go? How do I not worry? I love you Special and wish you were still two years old with big bows on your head and curly hair who talked with an accent and said the sweetest things. Time goes by too fast!

I am grateful for life for breathing and spring flowers and love.

Grateful for...

Saturday I helped with the Child Abuse Awareness 5K run. It was an early morning for a Saturday but rewarding. It feels good to give service.

I hurried home and got ready and we went to an authentic italian restaraunt and had real italian pizza. Much different than the American version. It was pretty good. Then we went to see Wicked. It was fabulous. I was so grateful we got to go to see Wicked. Neil even liked it. It is a cleaver and well written play.

It has been a few really good days in a row. I am feeling blessed and I am taking the time to realize my blessings. I am smelling the flowers along the way.

I taught my primary class today. The kids are so cute. I have one little girl who has downs and one little boy who is so active. It is fun but challenging to keep them ingaged in the lesson. It has been awhile since I have been in Primary. I need to regain some skills.

I am trying to let in the light. I have so much to be grateful for. I want to really feel it!

Lunch with McKinsey

Kinsey you are beautiful and so very special. I am so proud of the woman you are becoming. You have grown so much and I admire your determination and your desire to be the kind of person who helps others, who cares, who notices the small and important things.

I loved our talk today and just being with you.

You will be moving out soon. I will miss you. I am happy for you to explore and enjoy life. You deserve the best.
