Life in a Nutshell

Sep. 18, 2006

busy, busy, busy...

I forgot what it was like to work full time and have 2 children.  It is all coming back to me very quickly these days.  As I wrote a few days ago, my children are attending public school this year and I have decided to go back to work.  I was very thankful when my former employer hired me back and was able to give me the schedule I needed.

These last few months have brought about ALOT of changes for my family and these last few weeks have been really busy!  A friend of mine is getting married this coming Saturday and their reception will be here at my house.  That means about 60-100 people will be running through my house Saturday afternoon....ugh!  No, it's really very exciting to me.  My little Holly is going to be in the wedding so I'm excited about seeing her with her hair all done up purty and in her pretty dress.  Once I get some pictures, I'll have to post one or two. 

It's my son's 9th birthday on Friday needless to say we are not going to be doing a whole lot this weekend for his birthday.  He is invited to a friends birthday on Saturday so hopfully Brendan will be okay with that.

I can't believe I have a 9 year old.  That's hard to believe.  You ever have those "moments" when life just sort of hits you in the face? 

My children are doing very good at school.  They are really enjoying the whole experience.  Brendan is learning lots of French, although I must say he's not being challenged the way I would like him to be.  The homework he has is stuff he would have done at the beginning of grade 3.  I am glad it's easy for him with all the changes he's had to make.

I am a much happier woman these days, thank YOU LORD!  I really do enjoy my children a little more.  I can still be short with them but I am doing alot more laughing and carrying on with them. Homework time is probably our favorite time of day.  I just LOVE doing Brendan's homework with him.  I have homeschool to thank for that.

So good to hear your relief and contentment with where God has brought you, for now. I heard an author today speak of happiness, and how our minds are built to be happy with change. That is why it seems we are only happy for short periods. So...I guess that is why Mom most of the time seemed "happy". She was always changing things up wasn't she. I also guess that means I should be VERY happy!!!! Maybe it's not such a great book after all. Ho, hum...

Blog looking good ;-) !!!!
Love you
