TMI WARNING, a little diaper talk, but nothing that any mom hasn't seen and talked about a million times. One morning last week Joey was poopy, I asked him to bring a diaper and wipes, he brought me a diaper and one wipe. LOL! I started changing him and had Aiden bring me a package of wipes. So I had a pack of wipes sitting there. A little bit later Joey came along with his wet diaper in his hand, I guess he peed and wanted to be done with it, so he brought it to me... I asked him to go get a diaper. He came back with wipes. I asked him again to go get a DIAPER, he ran off and got distracted, lol! I called to him…

This is my backyard right now.  "Inconceivable!" It's days like this one that I miss Texas the most.

OK, if you don't have little ones (or big ones) running around and I sent you a note wishing you a Happy Mothers Day, this is why.  I hope I didn't make a hard day more painful, if anything I wanted to do the opposite, say to you that you make a difference in this world, and we're better for it.  After all that's what Mothers Day is all about isn't it?  Honoring those in a matriarch role (who are literal Mother or aren't, wishing for children, or who aren't) who work and sometimes sacrifice for those around them.  If I missed passing you a note, I didn't mean to skip you, just didn't want to spam the whole web!  I'll take this chance now to wish you a HAPPY…

Yesterday was the big triple birthday. Sorry no pictures.  Lately I've kinda taken on a stance of enjoying life without a lens in the way, unfortunately that means missing having memories to share, and keep, but Other took pictures and I got to enjoy the big day less inhibited.  Michael is 8, Kevin is 31, and I'm not sure how my father in law turned, lol!  We had two pies and a birthday cake, a yummy dinner, and Michael got a VERY SURPRISING bike!  Happy birthday to my sweetheart, I couldn't help but choke up as he blew out his candles, 6 months ago we never knew if we'd make this milestone.  My Oldest is 8!?!?!  How did that happen?  I'm so proud of him!

Today browsing the net I came across that funny wedding dance that took the net by rage about a year ago, you know the one that the guys from The Office forced on Jim and Pam in their wedding march. It made me cry.  Why?  Because Kevin and I watched that episode of The Office live on our get away the week before- The week before his body stopped.  Back when our life was "normal."  It's been more than 6 months now.  Wow.  Our life is better than ever, never normal, but as normal as life gets for us. We have a home of our own, finally.  I HAVE my sweetheart.  I'm not a widow scrambling to take care of the family we made together, I'm VERY blessed.  These boys…
