The begining and the end

Lee officially started his job today.  Which means he will be around less to help, less family time and more money.  I am really going to have to step up my game in order to keep the house functioning. 

It is also the end of another dance year.  Victoria's recital is in a few hours and she is excited.  She has been telling everybody this is her "big day."

I am glad we are taking a few months off of sports.  Swimming lessons do start in a few weeks though.  But those will be short lived.

I have lots of pictures to post and now that Lee is gone every night I should be able to post them on here. 

I keep hoping that things will calm down but it looks like the summer will be nearly as busy as the school year. 

Lee's sister will be in Seattle and we won't be able to go up and see her.  I am disappointed however there is just no way for us to make it.  I don't think that everybody will and can understand why.

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.
