Catch up!

Where to begin....I have been really bad about keeping up with everything. But, it's been really crazy. Let's begin with Skyler. He loved school. And then all of a sudden, he didn't want to go. He cried....and had stomach aches....and did everything possible to make me feel like I was failing as a mom. What if I didn't make the right choice? What damage was this doing to him??? I didn't understand because he loved it for the first couple of weeks. He would get himself so upset that we had to stop a few times while driving to school for him to go potty....at one point, we cried together. It was painful. And then, he spent the weekend sick with a fever and a nasty cold. Kept him home last Monday, and then he has gone to school with a smile every day. Every night, he likes to talk about something special happening to him before he goes to sleep. Tonight, he wanted to talk about going to school. So, was he just not feeling well that week? Was he having some regression? Wishing he was home with me? Ah, who knows. Being a parent is pretty darn hard...making decisions and helping your child through difficult times...sometimes feels impossible. And he's only 4!!!

This past Saturday we were invited to our friend Dr. Chris' house. We love Dr. Chris and his girls. The kids had a fabulous time running around and being crazy. We ended the night walking to a little lake and feeding the fish. Everyone went to bed with a smile!

Here is a pic of the kids feeding them corn...not the best quality, but it was fun!
