CLEANING YOUR HOUSE WHILE YOUR KIDS ARE STILL GROWING IS LIKE SHOVELING THE WALK BEFORE IT'S STOPPED SNOWING. ~dayspring~

June 25, 2010

Today I will be finished putting my books away. I'm tired of looking at them. I have so many it makes my head spin. I was thinking, (hmmm...that could be a good or bad thing), it's ashame that alot of you WTM'ers aren't near us. If you were, I would let you borrow all my books. It would help alot of people to save a little bit of money. ~smile~

Tom has been away from us for almost a week. Did I mention on any other post that he went to the shore with his cousins? Well, I tore apart his room. You can't walk in there. Every toy, video, etc. is all over the place. I have to get it cleaned up today or the poor child will not have any place to sleep.

Ed brought home a small pool for the girls. These two girls can make your head spin, so I am going to use this pool as a reward every day. It sounds mean but something has to be done so that they will listen. I try everything. Yesterday I wanted Katie to write a few words on something and she absolutely was miserable, to say the least. So, when Dad came home and she saw the pool, guess what? She wrote every word in about 1 minute and they were neatly done.

Becca is doing very well with her EMT classes. She really likes to go on the runs with the ambulance. She did promise one lady that she would visit her in the hospital and she did. The lady was very happy and I believe Becca may go back. They got along very well. The lady thinks she knows Becca but we have no idea from where.

Ed might be looking at a van tonight. We need to get one. He can't be going around doing everything. He is getting exhausted. Working, taking the kids where they need to go, taking me shopping, etc. is wearing him out. We were trying to wait to get more money but we just need to find one. Some one from the WTM had offered theirs but we decided it was to big. Thank you very much Patty!!!

Well, time to get myself moving. The girls are too quiet. Actually, I don't hear them at all...this is dangerous. LOL!!

Have a good day.
