Snow Day (well really Ice Day)















































































Here are some pics of the girls. I let them play outside for 10 minutes. They thought it was snow:) We were out of school today and are out of school tomorrow too. We are erally hoping Addy and Lily get to come play tomorrow.

child care openings

I just wanted to let you know that in the fall I will have 2 openings on Mon, Wed, Fri. I also have 2 openings right now on mon, wed, fri but can't watch them until noon because i have to pick up kids from school. I could do 12-5.

During the summer I usually watch a couple of extra kids as well. If you are interested let me know. I am pretty flexible during the summer because there is no school. I can do just one day or several. I like to try to have Thursdays off for my kids but would be willing to take kids all week if someone really needed it. I charge $4 an hour for 1 child and 6 for 2. You are welcome to just comment on here and i will get in contact with you. Just leave your email address. Lat year I gave several moms a break on tuesdays so i kept several kids and we had a blast!!!

Reading

I am so proud of Madison. I bought some BOB books and last night she read 2 of them all by herself with no help. She read words I didn't know she knew. If your child is getting ready to read these books are awesome!!! They are small so the child doesn't get frusterated. I bought them from the school book order. If you get a chance to buy them do it. Hopefully this will mean that Kindergarten will be a breeze:) JK

The other side of the railroad tracks

Ok so usually I don't complain about the train but today is a different story! Everything is on the other side of the tracks from us. School , church, etc. Rarely do I get unlucky enough to get stopped by a stopped train but today was different. I left the house at 8:05. I usually get to school around 810 or 815. I tried to go around the train by going down fretz to second to miss it. I was not happy to see traffic backed up on second. then to top it all off second was closed down to one lane. SO I am thinking I REALLY did not want to have to get out of my car to take madison in because i was late. Well I hurried after i passed the light and got there at 829. 1 minute beofre i would have had to walk her in. God was on my side because on top of everything else Allie screamed the ENTIRE half hour. My stress level was extremely high. That trained sat there for 25 minutes. those poor people that were stuck wating for it. I say that but it took me just as much time as they did. And then to top it off on the way home there was a wreck. I am glad I don't have to get back in the car today with the children!!!
I am hating the railroad tracks in Edmond today!!!!! Time to move? I wish!

By the way...

Robert's interview went well. He found out there might actually be 4 spots open and 18 people interviewed but they were picked out of 60 people that applied. It could take as long as 2 weeks to find out. Please continue to pray for him and his job. If he doesn't get it we know there is a reason and that there is something better down the road and if he does then this will be a good path to take!

Some things to pray for and be thankful for.

1. Robert has an interview today within his company! Please pray for him and that whatever is his will be done.

2. Pray that I can continue to lose weight and stay strong!!! My goal is 10 pounds this month and 20 before Jason and Krista get married in June. My biggest obstacele is exercise!!!

3. I am thankful Robert got his brace off so he can start moving his shoulder!

That's what's been going on around here :) Sorry no pictures but I will post some soon!!!
