This afternoon and evening I watch Savannah while Kelly and Matt went to a wedding. I loved spending time with her. She was fun to be around and so stinking cute. I do want to say though...when I was putting her to bed I thought about my own two boys. I have such a routine, I know what works, and I know what doesn't. I love being a mom. I love that my boys smile when they see me. Kelly is a wonderful, WONDERFUL mom and just being around her and her little one (even when the boys are not here) makes me proud to be a mom.
2. Weekend
I am exhausted...to put it lightly. BUT it has been a good weekend so far. Tomorrow I will be able to spend more time with Matt and Kelly and then SLEEP. The picture at the bottom of the post is Owen on Friday morning laying down in front of the gate. (I call it his jail.) He was so tired too but I wanted him to sleep in the car on the way to Chicago and boy does he love that blue blanket.
3. Fried Chicken Salad
....with cheese and ranch (lots of ranch) dressing. Oh my goodness...yum.
4. The dead tree will be gone
There is a huge, dead tree right in the middle of my back yard. It is actually pretty close to the house. Last week it started breaking huge branches off into the yard. I decided that I should not tempt fate any longer and have the tree taken out. So Monday is the day....no more tree. And yes...feel sad for my wallet.
5. Paying it forward
It is unbelievable how much people amaze me every day. People that I don't even know and that I will never meet. This generosity is something that I will never forget and I will work hard to instill in my boys. So many people have made a difference in our lives. Thank you thank you thank you.
