Awwwh

Tonight Seth asked me if he could have a soda and I told him later. Then our conversation went like this....

Seth - "You know what I need"?
Me - "What"? (Thinking he was putting in a snack order"!)
Seth - "A hug"!

And with that he came running over and gave me the biggest hug!!

All together now..... "awwwwwh"!!

Mixed Up

It was nice to not have to get up and get Seth off to school today! Now the problem is that I keep thinking today is Saturday! A little bit ago I found myself picking out what I was wearing to church "tomorrow"!! I sure hope I don't get up, get ready and head for church in the morning!!

Sixteen Years?!?

I'm not really sure where the time has gone...but today we celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary! I'm not sure I feel old enough to be married that long!! Thank you Jesus for Nick...I don't know what I did to deserve him....I hope we have many more years together!

School Closing

The sounds "Thank You Lord! Thank You Lord!" could be heard a mile away when Seth saw "Roxana C U District 1" on the school closing list!

I think I did a little shout myself!! No alarm setting tonight!!

Boys

I love having a little boy! Seth had been to a birthday party and his "treat bag" was still sitting on the snack bar when we were leaving for school the next day. Believing that every ride to school is a little better if you have a piece of chocolate to eat on the way, I didn't say anything while he was digging thru the bag thinking that he would bring one of those snack size candy bar with him. I went on out to the car and here he came....not carrying a candy bar....but the rubber lizard! Ya gotta love 'em!

Wasting Time

I think I have mastered this art....the art of wasting time! I have so much to do, but here I sit at the computer! I keep saying I can do it tomorrow....but will I?? I did put Seth's Christmas tree up last night! You would think I would learn....don't say that you "might" do something unless you really intend to do it because a seven year old thinks that "might" means "we're going to RIGHT NOW"! Anyway...it's up, he decorated it and he is so proud!

What a tough holiday season for Melba and Mr. Wendle and their family.....please let them know that we will be praying for them! Wow! There are no words.....

Love you all....
Me

I'm Back....

Well, I finally decided to try to get back on here.....I really haven't had much to say...nothing too eventful happenin'....and just really wasn't sure that you guys were reading....so I just kinda got out of the mood!! Hopefully, I will try to get going on it again...holidays are probably not a good time to try to start!!!

Thanksgiving is coming.....lots to be thankful for!! Family! Can't wait to see Cindi and Dylan...wish you were coming Suzie....glad that we live right here, smack in the middle of both sets of parents! Health! Isn't our family fortunate? Stress tests, biopsies and colonoscopies that come back good? I guess I could go on and on because we do have LOTS to be thankful for but those seem to be two of the really important ones that are popping in my head right now.

Well, I guess I better get busy....I have spent a day shopping in Old St. Charles with the ladies from church....Nick will be home from work in about a half hour and I'm looking forward to just relaxing and getting to bed early!

Love to you all!
