Not soon enough

Okay, so I am still working my j-o-b. But, I have to wonder why. I don't get paid when I am supposed to and quite frankly my heart just isn't in it. My heart is torn out of me every time I have to leave my babies to go have people yell at me all day about why their orders are so ridiculously late. I truly am counting down the days, only 4 months, actual work days are only 70. I guess I shouldn't say "only" since 70 is a lot, but there is an end in sight.
I just had to complete our 2nd progress report for Kindergarten, due tomorrow. Catherine has been doing well. I look forward to next year and being home with her & her sisters all day so that we can do so much more. She has surprised me so much with everything that she has learned. Children really are little sponges. I also just completed our family page for the yearbook, it is supposed to sum up our Homeschool year, I wanted to use a Bible verse, however my verse knowledge is still in the primary stages and growing at a much slower pace than my little sponges is. But, I did find a quote in my scrapbook stuff that I think summed it up well.

While we try to teach our children all about life,
our children teach us what life is all about.

Tuckered Toddler

Webb and I got home one night from a night out alone (few and far between these days) and little Sam had fallen asleep on Cat's bed. Just too cute not to snap a photo.

Where have I been?

So I just foud this "new" quilt shop not even 5 mintues from the house. Turns out not so new, has been around for almost 2 years. Where have I been.....oh yeah, way too busy doing way more than I should be. I have enjoyed the time home with my babies so far. I definitely think that I have more than enough to keep my busy at home for those who thought I wouldn't. And my house is getting back to some sort of order (its about time)

I want to be a loser

I hate to admit how complacent I have gotten with being healthy.  I know what I need to do which makes it much worse than just being ignorant.  I know how to count calories (or points).  It's a simple equation more output than input.  Add in chaos and the need of convenience and it no longer seems quite as simple.  In addition to the chaos I have a huge weakness for sugar!  Preferably the chocolate variety.  But really any sort of 'sweet' will do.   My hubby and I came to a so called agreement right after Christmas.  I will give up sweets and he will give up soda (his weakness).  "Give up" is so very harsh.  Neither of us has been perfect with it.  He of course has done much better than I.  Unfortunately for him I am weak and when I have given into my sweet tooth I have tended to bring him a Coke.  Oh only upon typing that out did I realize how horrible I have been.  Did it take anyone else back to Genesis?  Ouch.  The above reason though is why accountability in
