On this, the day of my anniversary....

I realized lately that I very seriously miss blogging. I miss the outlet and the joy it gave me to write. I miss the people's comments and I miss the people. I am a little shocked to see that I've been a member of this community for 3 years this month! Alot has happened in those 3 years.

Recently, a friend told me that he went back to read the "earlier" stuff. That would be the posts before he and I met. That urged me to go back and re-read them too. I enjoyed the HECK out of it!

So I decided to let my sons see it. I showed them the posts that they were in and my seven year old doesn't like me anymore. He saw the missing teeth post and moaned and groaned, but it wasn't until we came across last year's crazy hair day post that he smacked his forhead and begged me to "take that off of there!" He pointed out that all of Eric's pictures were "normal." So being the rational, fair mom that I am, I am going to do the right thing.

Yes, I'm going to post a funny picture of Eric. enjoy.

Mum's the word

Well, I know it's WAYYY past Mother's Day but there are some things about this year I want to share/remember so I'm doing a belated Mother's Day post.

Really, this year, I celebrated a Mother's Weekend! It started with an Akron Aero's game.









We ate meals out and even had time to fit the park in. (Brendan is NOT flipping me off..lol, he was snapping and they were singing.)





I got so many nice presents too.



I don't know how well you can see all the things in here...let me tell you. There is a jar with beautiful wild flowers from Katie, A card, plant and necklace from Eric, and a homemade vase and flower from Brendan.

The next day we went to Tennessee Kiddie Park. Brendan asks that I leave the "kiddie" part out. The boys had such a great time there!



Thanks Katie, Brendan, Eric and Terry for making that weekend so special!
