pets

today when i was driving home from costco i noticed this guy (my age probably) sitting in the back of a truck crying- interesting i thought...maybe he wasnt crying. Then as I was staring at him, I saw him say something- he was crying and I came to the conclusion that he had an animal in the bed of the truck with him. Sure enough the driver pulled into the pet clinic....sad- I guess it makes me realize I would be sad if something ever happened to my dog, as much as I want to give him away or keep him outside for the entire day and night Ive realized I do love the little guy!
anyway just an update!

chain reaction

mmmmmmm, so off to preschool we go today! well there is one kid who is always early and who is always crying! The few kids who are early as well do great watching him cry, but yes, as soon as the teacher opened the door they all began to cry! by the time I was leaving all seven, yes SEVEN, two year olds were crying!!!!
thanks little boy!
but I suppose I cry when I see my friends crying too- so its a never ending battle RIGHT?
WOW, its amazing the things you learn at such a young age- DO WHAT YOUR FRIENDS DO!!!

anyway, it was a good day and everyone calmed down!

When it rains.....it pores:)

So here I am visiting the great town of wenatchee- great friends good family and two children! A two year old and a 6 week old. Never have I traveled this far ( 2 1/2 hours) by myself with them and the trip there- fantastic!! Well on the way home I was stopped by a road crew blowing up rocks- 20 minute delay- okay, so we wait the twenty minutes. We pass the flagger and of course it has been 2 hours since I fed the newborn so its time to eat she screams- we make it to the rest stop and POW its closed, so we pull over! Then in the middle of feeding my two year old yells POTTY MOMMY, POTTY MOMMY- great- I say. So I give her the option to go outside- NO WAY so I say " lets put on your sisters diaper and just this one time you can go in a diaper" NO WAY aaaaaaaaaaaa- what do I do...well, there is a fruit stand up the road! So we hop in the car, get to the fruit stand and I plead my case- YES they say, you can use the toilet!!!
okay, I think we are good to go...but of course we get behind three truckers!!!
So long story short our 2 1/2 hour trip ends up taking us almost four and we make it home to a loving husband and father and a batch of peanut butter cookies from the neighbor!
I guess there is always a rainbow at the end of a rainstorm- HUH?
