I am not going to post about our current weather situation because frankly too many people make it such a big deal that we have a snow storm in Spring. And I keep thinking about how a little snow isn't so bad when there are other people going through such worse circumstances. Like Stellan for instance and his mommy and daddy and siblings. I can't imagine one of my precious little one's in the hospital fighting for their lives. It brings tears to my eyes to think of them and all the thousand's of other families going through such struggles.
I am not going to post about work because it is just work. There are good days and bad days. Busy days and slower days. Oh wait, I do want to post about my work. We are all feeling like we do need a bit of something to celebrate so we decided that this week was Spring Fling. Today we dressed up to support our schools, tomorrow is royalty day (or wanna be royalty), and Thursday is Hawaiian Day and we will have a salad potluck lunch. Kind fun don't ya think!?
I asked my supervisor if she thought it would inappropriate to wear my coconut shells that my sister bought for me when they were in Hawaii 2 years ago. She thought it wouldn't go over very well. DANG, I don't have anything else Hawaiian. Guess I will have to bribe my 8 year old to see if she will make me a lea (okay, I have no idea how to spell that!! Oh well, I am too tired to care much).
I will post about how when I was leaving our daycare today I got stuck in her short driveway and it took us a 1/2 hour to get me out! I was slippin and slidin all over and she had to get her shovel and dig me out and PUSH my van. It was actually quite comical. Thanks Denise!!!
Hubby has his day off tomorrow and is home with the boys. I love Wednesday mornings (use to be Tuesdays until they switched his day off). It seems so much less stressful when I am only getting myself and one other child off for the day. Then tomorrow evening we have Magik Mike coming to our Awana club for a Family Fun Night. Ice cream sundaes afterwards. Yummy.
Thursday night is Kindergarten Round Up for Thing 2 (Connor). I can't believe he is going to be in Kindergarten this coming Fall. In some ways I am SO ready for him to be and in others I just want him to stay in preschool and not grow up. I would say that this week I have been SO much more emotional than I have been in quite some time.
Oh, oh, oh. I have to remember to try to post some pictures tomorrow of our fun in the snow today!! Poor Connor. I couldn't find his snowpants anywhere (Losing stuff momentarily in our house is NOTHING NEW!) so he had to wear Macy's snowmobiling outfit from when she was like 4!! It is pink/magenta and about 4 inches too short in the arms and legs. He looked so darn cute. But the minute he walked outside, his not so nice sister laughed at him and said "your wearing pink!" I scolded her and told Connor to just tell her "real men wear pink". He was totally fine with wearing the outfit. He did not care at all. In fact he made sure I put the hood on it so he could wear that too! What a great kid. I hope as he gets older he hangs onto his confidence.
Anyway, I better get to bed. Keep praying for baby Stellan. His mommy was on the 10 p.m. news tonight on KSTP 5. I watched it and I had tears in my eyes during the whole thing!! She is going to post the video on her blog as soon as it becomes available. You can click on Stellan's picture to the right to visit her blog.
