So I cant find my camera and I have a few cute pictures to share...I will search again tomorrow! I have been sick twice in the last 2 weeks (no I am not preggo:) ). I don't know what my deal is. I throw up for a day and then have the chills and aches for a couple of days. I think that I just go go go and don't stop so I am more susceptible. Who knows! Ry so called in to work tonight and will hopefully be home in the wee hours. Poor guy didn't even get to eat my yummy roast before he left so I invited my neighbors over to enjoy it instead.
My dogs peanut and Meggie have been fighting for the last six months. I don't get how they could live together for a year and a half and have no problem with each other. I don't mean little fights, I mean full blown where I get bit and scratched fights. Any other normal, intelligent person would let them be but I intervene. Otherwise I would wind up with a very hurt or dead dog. Well ry and I left town last weekend and they did it again. My poor neighbor was there and had to break it up. Needless to say, when we got home meggie was pretty hurt and my peanut had to find a new home. I am way too attached. My same sweet neighbor took her in and I still get to see her.
I look at my sister in laws blog and when I grow up I want to be like her. She is amazing to me. She home schools, has very obedient well rounded children and still has time to blog almost everyday! Those are just some of the few things that I wish I could do to be like her. I am so scared to put my kiddos out into this scary world but then again how will they learn and grow.
I have decided that I am too hard on Preston. Lately when I get mad at him he cries. It makes me so sad. I am so grateful for little children. I need to remember that he hasn't been on this earth for that long and that I need to be more patient and teach instead of expect.
Speaking of little children... Today was our primary program. I have tears running down my face as they come up and say how grateful they are for Jesus Christ and sing beautiful songs. I look down the row and my dad is feeling the same emotions that I am. I know who I get it from!
That's it for now. Tomorrow I will find the camera and post more.

Sorry about Peanut! I know how you love both of those dogs, that was probably really hard.
As for being hard on kids - sometimes I feel like like I have no patience for Bentley & and am a little meaner than I intend to be. It's a good thing they are so forgiving and have such short memories. If only everyone could be more like them!
I think my children still learn and grow being homeschooled(even more so than in public school I might add)....don't worry, we all have our moments and then pick up and move on. It's amazing how forgiving children are!
I didn't mean that to sound mean and it comes across as that....I just mean that kids can learn and grow without neccesarily going out into the scary public school world:) or something.
I completly agree that they can learn and grow without going into the world. I would love to home school my children. I actually would prefer that. That is one reason that I want to be like you. To have the knowledge and patience....actually I dont know if its patience. I just wish I had some of the same qualities as you.
I meant to say....its JUST patience :)
Mary I loved that last post. I honestly can feel what you are saying...I think we all want to be like someone else...I know I do. I think it' funny cause just today, I told my hubby that there is sooo much to do...Don't get me wrong I know I can do it...but it's still a lot. Just keep loving them... our kids are so forgiving :)
Don't be so hard on yourself. You are a great mom and your kids couldn't ask for a better mom!
