Good Day

 

Other than American Idol the day was pretty good.

Our Wednesday bible study met for the last time today. We finished a study on Philippians and had a nice small group. We enjoyed some breakfast and fellowship this morning along with great conversation.

After that the kids and I went and had a picnic. It was a bit windy but all in all it was nice. The kids love picnics and they are all at a age that I don't have to worry about them mixing dirt into their sandwiches! My last two daycare girls are 4 and turning 5. After they ate (well what little they actually ate) they played and played and played. I'm sure they ran for an hour straight and didn't fight about anything. It was fun.

We got home and about the minute I got them settled down for a little rest period the phone rang. It was the preschool and they offered me the job I interviewed for! Yeah! Open-mouthed smile I start training in August and I'm so excited. Its a lot of what I do now only my home won't be the stomping ground! It's three mornings a week so it'll be a good transition for working outside of the home again.

To top the day off I had a nice dinner with my hubby at Applebees. Ok well not so nice, everything on my plate was cold and it was also topped with a hair. I marked the plate and sent it back. (you know marking the plate necessary Sick smile) The new one that came out was new but Rick was done eating his already. So we sort of ate together! Be right back

Heaven

Image
The clouds tonight were fantastic. When I look at clouds I can’t help but imagine how soft and fluffy they are. I can almost picture myself bouncing off of them fearlessly. I said to Rick tonight that I imagine in heaven I will get to do that- I will have no fear like I do here on earth of hurting myself or my bladder giving out- (just keeping it real!) For me growing up not knowing Jesus- barely even knowing of Him, Heaven was really an unknown. I have a really vivid memory of when I was younger. I remember the house we lived in so I suppose I was around 9 and I knew my Grandma lived in heaven. She passed away when I was just 6 of cancer. Because I didn’t really understand death I didn’t get why she just couldn’t come back. Someone must of told me heaven was in the sky because when I yelled and I mean I. Yelled . up to heaven I begged Grandma to come back. I was home alone in my living room and  I distinctly remember telling her that if she really loved me she’d come back.

Uno!

I am so thankful for my two little guys... (which they are not so little anymore) They are both so fun, so smart and so DIFFERENT... right down to the way they look. I found this video of them and they had just turned 4 and 5. Eric was starting Kindergarten and Sam preschool. They were playing UNO with Rick and I don't think I had ever seen this video before. It is an absolute PERFECT picture of the two of them. Take note that Sam never stops moving and Eric is just as mellow as can be. That is still true of them. Also notice the YELLOW KNEE HIGHS they are both wearing (not sure if you can see Eric's)- yep those yellow Mickey Mouse knee highs were the favorite ALL summer that year- Sam more so then Eric, I have TONS of pictures of Sam with shorts on and those silly knee highs! I sure love them. (the boys well and the knee highs too)

Glasses

Just some background... When Sam was about 6 months old we had him seen by a Pediatric Ophthalmologist for a blocked tear duck on his right side. While examining him the Doctor found his vision was more far-sighted in his right eye than his left. Now all babies are far-sighted to some degree, this is often even on both sides and will resolve itself in the first year to year and a half of life. At one year Sam had surgery to probe his tear duct and again his eye exam showed improvement in his left eye but not his right. At 18 months he got his first pair of glasses. We were also supposed to patch his good eye to force his weaker eye to work harder. Well after many, many attempts this has not happened. So here we are now. As of his last appointment ( Thursday the 2ND ) his sight in his right eye has worsened even more. His new glasses came in on Wednesday and so the battle begins ( again )! First battle, trying to convince Sam he should wear his glasses. I let him pick out new frames,
