Play Ball!

Andrew had such a fun time playing outside with his t-ball set. Zoey loved chasing after the ball. While they were playing today, I was out getting back to my roots.... I'm almost all blond again!

EASTER!

We all had a fantastic Easter. The kids got to go to Makah's house for a Eater Egg Hunt and to color Eggs. Sadly it was so cold outside the hunt had to be inside. The kids had so much fun.. If any of you moms want a fantastic tip for coloring eggs, get wire whisks and put the egg inside for them to dip their egg in the color. You don't have to worry about splashes and even the younger ones can do it. (I saw this in a magazine). Zoey was even able to get in on the action. The worked wonderfully... NO SPILLED DYE! 

The Easter Bunny was so good to Andrew and Zoey. Andrew got a little T-Ball stand with a ball and bat. He also got some cars and candy. Zoey got a My Little Pony (that is pretty big), a bracelet, princess lips (as Zoey calls is but it's chap stick), and some candy. They were both so excited to see it when they woke up. Holidays truly are so much better when you have kids and can see the joy in their eyes. 

 

New Term

Today I started another term. For the last 6 months I have been working my tail off trying to make my audit requirements. I am still yet to know if they were met. I completed 36 credits total in that 6 month period. This term will be a little less stressful thankfully. I just can't believe in another 6 months I will be student teaching (if I meet audit requirements)!

I have to say I am so grateful for my husband and the help and patience he has given me. I have been so stressed and worried and he always knows the right thing to say to make me feel better.

I am grateful for my beautiful kids and their patience for their grumpy and stressed mom. I haven't been playing with them as much as I wish I were. Papers consumed my life! They still love me.

I am grateful for my mom and her willingness to watch the kiddos while I go into the school and teach mini lessons. I totally realize how consuming these last 9 months of school are going to be. I do feel bad not being the one with my kids and the one taking care of them. However I do know this is what I need to do and it is important I finish school and have a college degree.

Family is really the best and most important thing ever. I love you guys!
