not me monday

a few things me and the fam DID NOT do this week...

hubs DID NOT leave me a tiffany & co "gift catalog" to look thru as he walked out the door to mexico city last week. i DID NOT hug and kiss the sweet blue catalog and look longingly at it, kinda wishing it would all come true for our 10th anniversary!
jada DID NOT say, "'i saw dog poop. i stopped and did not step in it'. i DID NOT do a little happy dance knowing i didn't have to clean up her shoes or tell her one more time to watch out for the bombs in the yard.
a neighbor shot off a big firework in the sky...sof DID NOT yells 'whoa' and points then proceeds to jibber-jabber about it for several minutes!

brooke DID NOT cut her own bangs while doing a cutting exercise at school bc she insisted on taking her hair down...apparently, some of her hair DID NOT get in the way and she DID NOT have a little hair cutting action right at her desk. she DID NOT do a decent job.
i DID NOT find a "gift" in the toilet thursday morning...i started plunging and then started gagging and then when some of "it" DID NOT pop out and hit my leg, i DID NOT start vomiting. i was NOT thanking the lord for hubs doing this most of the time and cursing indoor plumbing...blllallaahhhh!

we DID NOT get our new sectional for the basement "family room" and it is NOT fab-u-lous!

i DID NOT get my new "gadget love", my blackberry tour...super fun!
paige DID NOT have a softball tourney in pouring rain and coldness on friday night...i DID NOT get laughed at when i came in my poncho and covered chair...by the end of the night, they were NOT jealous.
paige DID NOT get nailed in the face with a softball on a bad hop...she DID NOT get 2 "shiners", lots of bruising and a lot of pain and swelling.

Tiffany's has to make up for surprises in the toilet. What an interesting week.

Ugh. Clogged toilets are never fun. In fact they are disgusting. It's making my stomach churn just imagining it.

I'll do the toilet if my Honey will pass on that Tiffany's catalog. That was still pretty gross though - glad you lived to tell about it. ;D

Oh no.....poor Paige. I know from experience that getting hit in the face HURTS!

That is such a great picture of her playing though.

Both eyes are shiners? At least she has a story to tell all about it!

Jada's hair is cute in twists. You are so very creative with her hair styles.

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......

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...

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....
