not me monday

here are a few things that i totally DID NOT do this last week...

i DID NOT buy 6 candy bars at the pharmacy when i went ot get the kids prescriptions filled because i knew ryan would be traveling the whole week and i would NOT need a little pick me up every now and then.

i DID NOT feed my kids "alphabet rings", cucumbers, cheese and a cupcake for dinner and call it healthy one night while i ate nothing but did get a fabulous diet coke!

jada DID NOT say to me in the preschool drop off line: "when little girls sneak and get in the pantry and eat food that they are not allowed to eat, mommy's and daddy's get angry, Jesus cries and santa is always watching."

we DID NOT have our friends over on saturday evening and end up doing a marathon wii sports fitness age contest.

i DID NOT eat mexican food two nights in a row.

ryan DID NOT have his "meet and talk" with paige's boyfriend. and hubs DID NOT go in the garage to pray first...almost having a panic attack. and hubs DID NOT tell paige that he was proud of her later after the chaos was settled. {tear}

i DID NOT get a stinking groove on with my new bloggy gig over at project{create a home} this last week.i DID NOT get a hooray shout out when the ortho called and said paige's shoulder was just sprained and not torn as he originally thought! praise god!

join in the fun and feel better about yourself...i mean, see what others DID NOT do either!

i did not bake a batch of chocolate chip walnut cookies and hide them from everyone else.

i did not tell anyone who asked why the house smelled like cookies that i made dog cookies.

girl, you are too funny! Loved Jada's comment in her preschool line. I did NOT tell my daughter there was no chocolate cake left last night b/c I wanted the last piece;o)

OK! I was literally cracking up!! I thought I was the only one that said that Jesus cries when the misbehave along with Santa watching! TOO FUNNY!!!

random acts...GNO

over at GNO, there's a few of us who decided to challenge ourselves last week to perform a random act of kindness.   i talked with my girls and hubs about what we could do... we reserve some funds each month out of our giving to put towards a current or urgent need that we find.  i think it's important to let the kids see how we give as family...and they should be part of that decision too . as we were talking, and eating chinese...come on, you know there would be eating...i open my fortune cookie.  and this is it!! i was out getting a few minutes of alone time and decided to pay hubs forward by getting jiffy lube to do the oil change.  while i was there, i remembered how hard it was being a single mom.  i remembered that the little things, like oil changes, suddenly became bigger things and honestly, more expensive things.  *light bulb!!!* thomas rang me up for my oil change and asked if they had any scheduled appointments that i could pay for.  he looked at me a little odd...

sadness

on the way home from DD {{bc apparently there was NO preschool today for jk...it's no prob, really...we just rushed around and scrambled and got in the car and then when we got there and there was no school...well, there were tears...thus DD}} , there came a moment of sincere sadness in my heart. jk: " mommy, i want to look like brookie" "why sweetie? you are the perfect jada" jk: "i don't like my brown skin. i want peach skin like brookie" i just sank. does that not make ur heart want to break? a 3 yo is struggling already with her skin being different. then, this happened: brooke: "jada, god made you and he loves you. he does it all right the very first time" then, i think my heart grew three sizes . jada threw a big smile up on her face and said, "ok. god loves me" now, if we all could just do that. god loves us...he doesn't make mistakes...he makes perfect works of art. sometimes there are scratches in the art.

tuesday tribute---for tuesday

go blog yourself has been on my reading list for quite sometime...and so i really came to love little tuesday whitt and her whole sweet fam and became involved in praying for them in tuesday's battle with that stinky neuroblastoma . tuesday's parents are totally amazing...they inspire me! although tuesday went to play with jesus not so long ago, there have been so many people that are changed because of the courage and strength and honesty of the whitt family. on the day of celebration of tuesday's life, a number of folks who couldn't make it out to the funeral, took their kids on a 'wagie ride', which was one of tuesday's fav things. we all posted up our pics...shared our experiences with each other...and hugged our kiddos a little tighter. my kiddos wagie ride is here . from that precious little tuesday and her honorary wagie ride, a blog spawned...of course...and it is dedicated to nothing more than, in their words, "to keep track of lives touc
