  • Good morning   I'm late blogging.  I had one already.  Still have it.  But xanga shut down on me and that was probably a good thing.  It was a very very very whiney blog.  Soooooo we'll try again WITHOUT the whines.  We still have snow on the ground.  Though not as pretty as the day this was taken.  We've had a few snowflakes falling down off & on today, but nothing major. 



    I think however that I'd rather be here.....



    Okay enough said on that subject


    I woke up grumpy this morning.  And stayed that way for a good long while.  I'm desperately hoping its gone now.  My kids are "napping"  though I hear Zeria thumping around, and I'm enjoying a bit of quiet. 


    Rob's ankle is still quite sore.  And he's using one crutch as support.  Speaking of crutches.  My husband in his 31 years of life has NEVER had to use crutches.  And as he's well uncoordinated its been an intresting thing to watch Poor guy, not very nice of wife to laugh at him as he puts all the weight on the crutches with his GOOD foot not his bad.  Or well its been a intresting sight


    I'm desperately hoping my mom's coming to kidnap my kids again today like she did last WEdnesday.  But as I haven't heard a hint of it she probably isn't.  It would be SOOO nice!


    Jamari actually cuddled with me this morning.  Sucking on a water bottle for a good half hour.  I was shocked.  And I confess a little bit skeptical that it was gonna last.  But very grateful for the reprieve.  He has been so hard for me to deal with.  That was a lot of my grumps this morning.  So I'm choosing to be thankful about the small blessing I received.  And not focus on all the times I've looked/touched him and he's screamed and crawled away for daddy. 


    I mopped the floor today.  SHHHHHHH don't tell my midwife.  But my housecleaner called to say she can't be here this week.  And it was AWFUL!  So bit the bullet and did it.  Just the kitchen.  Whole house looks better.  Rob vaccumed the floors.  And I think the house will live


    Father God, I'm moody, and I do NOT need to take it out on anybody.  I ask for you strength to be self-controlled and loving to my kids.  I ask for my kids to be a LOT less cranky then they have been.  In your sons name, Amen

  • You sound like a very loving and caring person and I'm glad to get a glimps of your life through xanga. I know how you must feel about the little one. I used to kind of collect kids and babysit a lot (a very expensive endever for my family). One baby, that I guess I was probably the only one who would take care of her while her parents skied, they called the screamer because she did nothing else. Usually when I sang to the babies they would be quiet and peaceful, but not she. I tried everything else and then my daughter told me that her mother was breast feeding her. I remembered that my own daughter was that way until one time my pastors wife took her and said, no, she never cried for me. "I just put mine on one and yours on the other," she said. So I took a cue from her and did the same for the screamer. Both sha and her mother were delighted.
