I can't believe DD is going to be 7 months already!!! And DS is going to be 5 years and 7 months!!! Gosh, time flies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doctor!!

I took C to the doctor yesterday. She had to get 3 shots!!!! :( I told the nurse that I just could not watch. She cried and the minute I picked her up she stopped. That made me feel good. She is just soooo tender, that it breaks my heart to see her in pain. I just love her and J SOOOO MUCH!!! Its almost time to get off of work, thank goodness! My smile starts the minute I get in my car and grows bigger as I get closer to home. I love my home life so much and I am so blessed to have such a loving and wonderful husband who makes me so happy, and 2 BEAUTIFUL children.

Movies In the Park

This weekend we are taking the children to see ET in the park. We have not done this yet, but I have heard it is so much fun. I am not sure if you sit in your car or bring a blanket and have a picnic. Its at 8:00 on Saturday evening.

Jacob will be going over to his friends house Saturday for the first time!! I am a little nervous, but I trust the mom. J has been friends with him since they were 2 years old!!!

Will probably be scrappin' this weekend too!!!!

September 11, 2007

I can't believe its been 6 years!!! Last night I watched a show called, "The Falling Man". It was very sad. It was about finding out about the life of a man who was photographed falling from the twin towers on that fateful day. Its hard to believe that these people, our friends and neigbors, went to work that day like every other day not even thinking that they would be falling (jumping????) from the towers. It was a very sad day!!! It won't be forgotten. I just want to say that I am glad to be an American!!!
GOD Bless America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
