We did something.

It is 11:17 and I have manage to do yoga, three batches of wash (one is still in the washer and one is the dryer but the first one is folded and put away), make applesauce, do dishes, make breakfast for the kids, make bread.  I put off taking a shower because I am pretty certain the washer and dishwasher used all the hot water. 
 I am going to let the kids watch a movie and then we will work on bedrooms and the downstairs.  The kids cleaned their own bathroom.  After my shower then we will go help unpack Lee's cousins house who just moved in across the street.  Lee has been over there all moving helping move. Then we are going out to dinner for my mom's birthday.  It is nice to have a Saturday with out soccer. 

Break's over.  :)

Andrew turned eight yesterday and I am so thankful for him. He is become such a deep thinker and asks these amazing questions that I don't always have the answers to. The meds have helped slow him down but he is still crazy Andrew. We upped the medications and it was like he was on speed. He couldn't sleep and was kind of zombie like. Then there has been a few moments wher

The one you feed...

A few weeks ago Lee text me this story.  One evening, an elderly cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. he said "my son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. one is evil. it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. the other is good. it is joy, peace love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." the grandson though about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "which wolf wins?..." the old cherokee simply replied, "the one that you feed"  One I have heard 100 times but one that I needed at that moment although I didn't know it.  There have been several situations that have happened these past few weeks and I keep thinking of that story and I have to remind myself which wolf I am feeding.
