67 Years



Grannie & Grandpa are Whit's grandparents. They are precious. The whole family got together last night to celebrate their 67th Wedding Anniversary. 67 Years! That is so wonderful!! How awesome it was to all be together to celebrate. There were 36 of us there and 4 people in the family weren't able to be there. It brought tears to my eyes when all 36 of us stood in a circle to say a blessing. After the prayer Grandpa said, "And to think all of this in this room started with a kiss on a hayride." I just had to post these precious people in our lives. Their love for each other and commitment is such a blessing to be a part of!

Conversation of the Day

A little background...Macy did not have a nap today and was in rare form tonight! She wasn't being so kind with her words or having a "happy heart" as we say!....Then this conversation..

Macy: "I'm a princess."
Me: "Well, Princess' don't act like you are acting."
Macy: "Yes, they do!"
Me: "No, they are not ugly and unkind to their mommies."
Macy: "They ARE when their mommy is a mean mommy!"

Dear Lord...please help me...I'm raising a little me!

I Dropped My Heart Off at "School" Today

M & B started Mother's Day Out today, or as we call it "school". They both did great! I honestly did not know what to do with myself having 5 hours alone!!! I feel like I accomplished a lot and hope to accomplish a lot more during that time in the weeks to come. Macy practically skipped in and was so excited about her new teacher and new and old friends. Brady was a little more reluctant! They somehow managed to get him to lay down for over an hour on his nap mat! However, he didn't sleep much and was a sleepy boy when I picked him up. Just had to share a few pictures. They look so big with their backpacks and lunchboxes. I'm not sure I'm o.k. with this whole growing up thing. It is going WAY too fast!
