Weekly Update

For the first time in about six weeks I threw up in the middle of the day.  I throw up every morning.  I am hoping today was some sort of fluke.  Plus most days I take medication.  So I am sure that has something to do with helping.

Soccer went well. Every kid on Jake's team made a goal.  Having an extra kid wasn't bad.  Logan is a great kid.  The kids were struggling this weekend.  They usually have their moments but this weekend they had more moments then normal.  They are great kids but I think me being sick is taking its toll on the family.  My good days are good and I get a ton done.  But then the bad days are bad. 

This week is another busy week.  Watch week at dance, play tomorrow, birthday party for a relative on Saturday which we may or may not attend but we did get a babysitter just in case.  Even we don't go to the party we will still go out.

We have started buying for the baby.  Hard to believe we are starting all over again.

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. There
