not me monday

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

i DID NOT totally miss a turn this week because there was a grown man driving a lawn tractor on the main street...he was NOT a total bobby bucher {water boy}.
jada DID NOT tattle on sofia for dunking her head in the toilet...for us to see a completely dry and clean sofia.  jada DID NOT get in big time trouble for tattling to get her sister in trouble.  i am NOT frustrated with this ongoing tactic of hers. 

i DID NOT get to totally hang out with the best college aged kids in the world on saturday and then again on sunday night...i am NOT totally blessed by so many awesome young adults who love jesus and just wanna be His love in this world.  wow.
i DID NOT get to make pudgie pies with my high school bible study this week...and we DID NOT make pizza pudgie pies, which were NOT totally amazing and awesome.  i am def NOT getting the girlies some fab tonka toasters to make some dinner over a fire pit here at home :)
hubs DID NOT go to san juan and stay on the beach at a resort "for work" 3 days...he even DID NOT "have" to work from the room one day, you know, beachside.  i am NOT bitter...grrrr.

me and hubs DO NOT start our co-ed softball league tonight after a 3 year sabatical (that we DO NOT call sofia).  i am NOT jacked to get back to the sport i love.  and i am NOT worried just a little that i will seriously injure this not 25 year old body.

brooke DID NOT ask me 'mom, zeus has 2 seeds where he pee's. what are they for?' 
me:'those are nipples, they are suppose t be there.' 
b: 'wow...wish i'd have known that. i have been trying to pick them ever since we got him.'

sofia DID NOT drink bubbles that were left open on a table...she DID NOT swallow it with snarl on her face and shake like a lizard int he grass.  the bubbles were NOT orange scented...and i DID NOT wonder why in the world some idiot would make drink scented bubbles!!!
paige DID NOT go tubing and totally hang with her fav cousin, gab, all weekend.  i was NOT a little jealous that they even wen to the drive in!

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
