not me monday

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

we DID NOT drive 20 hours in 2 days to see the famous mouse...we DID NOT have a total blast and get entirely exhausted.  it was NOT totally worth it for one day of awesomeness!
brooke DID NOT say, "i have sand in my butt crack...mom, you definitely have to come and see this."  i DID NOT respectfully deny the request.
jada DID NOT say,"i think i'm the prettiest princess tiana there is...i mean, other than the real princess tiana, but i can totally be the little kid princess tiana."

we DID NOT eat taco salad, soft tacos, and spanish rice for eater dinner at the beach...and it was NOT one of the best easter dinners i had ever made!
sofia DID NOT walk up to minnie's house at disney and give a big fat nose sqeeze tot he mailbox and say "HONK!!"

sofia DID NOT tell papa that minnie's house was a big mess and donald duck had done all the messing up.

we DO NOT love that there is no cell service here at the beach house.  it is NOT awesome to be totally unconnected from the world...i mean, we do have internet! who could possibly survive without blogging and twitter?
we DID NOT see nana and papa for the first time in 4 months at disney world on good friday.  the girls were NOT screaming at the top of their lungs while NOT running into their arms!
we are NOT at the most awesome beach house in the world, enjoying a lot of sand, tons of peace and lots of laughs...we are NOT so stinking blessed with a super cute and awesome fam.
paige and ryan DID NOT do one hour of softball drills and practice on the beach yesterday to stay in good softball condition for p's varsity softball.  i DID NOT smile seeing them both totally enjoying their time together!
paige and i DID NOT do sprints and many other cardio and strength drills on the edge of the ocean yesterday.  for some reason, working out on the beach is NOT the best ever...

i DID NOT take 500 pictures in the last 3 days.  i will NOT be posting them up for you to see...so you should def NOT come back and look later!  and we are def NOT having some much needed "no appointment" rest time on the beach for the week!

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
