What does it mean??

What does it mean when you are walking through the "loveliest little village on the plains" & other people look at you (strangers) & say "She must be crazy?" What does it mean when you run into someone you know & they run up to you & get you to sit down & drink water & eat food? What does it (really) mean when someone asks you "Are these all yours? It means you are SuperMommy that took her 3 blessings to AU by herself. (Honest moment: we sat at the game with in-laws) BUT most of the day was a 1:3 adult to child ratio. Rumor has it I was looking "rough" about 430 yesterday afternoon. We had a BLAST! The team is probably still talking about us - they loved meeting the Martin Mayhem. Aubie thought we were too cute, as did the ladies at the AU team store. We hiked the entire campus & ran into some people we knew - you always do in AU. I spent the whole day not worried about the house or email or whatever, JUST focused on my kid

Let the Games Begin!

Soccer season has started. Tuesday nights will be spent on the sidelines as we watch in awe the greatness of WFM5 running down the field. He thinks he is all that & then some. He also thinks that his friends are all that & then some. He knows they are not going to win every game, but he is okay with that. He knows they will have fun & knows we will cheer him on & tell him his awesomeness win or lose. They lost the first game on Tuesday night, but as he took it in stride. I praised him for his attitude & kept talking about the run down the field with the ball that he had almost right off the bat. The GREEN FIRE DRAGONS are great!

My W's

Well, I have another child that has gone off to Kindergarten. The boys started Kindergarten & 3 year old pre-school this past week. It has hit me hard how fast they grow-up. I do not know why this particular year, but when they have been home I have been soaking up those moments - it is definetely more on the forefront of my mind. The W's love their classes! Baby W says he does not go to school he goes to "cowboy class." (his room is decorated in a western theme) Baby goes 3 mornings a week & WFM5 now goes everyday - CRAZY! WFM5 & I had a talk the other day about how he needs to stay on green at school (meaning you do not get in trouble) & if other boys are wrestling during circl time that he needs to be the role model. Well, for 3 days he has come home & told me that he got on yellow or got a frowny face & right as I was about to have my heart attack & get quite stern he would start laughing & tell me he was just kidding. He loves to play
