NaBloPoMo/Laughter/Working

So I am going to take the challenge that failed last year. 

The point is to blog once a day for the whole month of November.  Not sure how it will work when we go to Utah or when I go back to work but it is worth a try.  It is all for fun anyway. 

So on to my post.  Andrew laughed and he had an audience of one.  ME!!!  I was giving him a bath and dumping water on him and he laughed.  He has been trying for a while but he finally did it.  He is starting to sleep better. 

I work at the hospital tomorrow.  I know it is going to be an insane day when I get an email asking when I am going to be in.  I love the hospital.  I know I have said it before.  But it really has been a good experience for me.  Plus I think it has been good for me to be away from Andrew for a few days before I head back to work full time.  By the time the kids are out of school for the summer I need to be working somewhere else or part time which sounds forever away but it is just over six months. Somewhere else with hours nights and weekends would be ideal.  But we will put our faith in God and just take it one day at a time. 

Both Lee and I will be able to hopefully work around the kids school and be home when they get home.  The big issue at this point is their random days off of school where we both will have to work.  My parents aren't an option at this point so maybe we can find somebody at church who would be willing to make a few dollars and take care of two adorable kids.  :) 

Well I need to get a few things ready for tomorrow!!!  Should be interesting.

Covid 19

Words can not expressed the range of emotions I am feeling at the moment.  One week ago we had it all planned out.  Then Covid happened.  And the whole world was suddenly on hold.  Kids had school Monday but then have been out for ten days and are scheduled to return on the 20th of April.  However most people think that is unlikely.  My heart is breaking for graduating seniors.  We cancelled our trip to Zion which may have happened any way because it was calling for snow.  I hope we will rise from this stronger but right now I feel like curling up in a ball and crying. Lee now has work at home options since we have not been put on "lockdown" at this point although several other areas and cities across the county including a few in Idaho have been. I try and  look for the good.  Healthy kids, good weather, lots of projects we put off being completed.  But some moments it feels like we are missing on so much. We did church at ho...

A Little COVID Update

SO what have been up to. Lots of nothing COVID sent me into a huge mess of depression and anxiety that I have slowly been getting through thanks to medication. The medications have made me a much better mom and wife. We spent a week with Lee's family at his family reunion last week. There was so many good fun times but there was also some frustration where Lee and I felt like we were the built in babysitters and people kept just leaving their children with us. I tried to be compassionate but sometimes it is hard. We are thankful for all the great memories we had, older kids got to go to Lagoon with their cousins which was fabulous despite snide comments about how much we make and what we can afford. We are thankful for Lee's brother and family hosting and always for the generosity of Lee's dad and Gina. And Lee's cousin took amazing pictures Jake got his permit and overall isn't such a bad driver just inexperienced. Marching band sort of kind of was cance...

Not diredctly although I fee like that is coming but more just heartbreak for so many around me. Yesterday Victoria quailfied for state. It was an answer to a prayer. I prayed she would qualify and felt strongly she would. As we left her away at the meet she was certain as were we that she hadn't qualified and then the clouds parted and she will be able to run. She told me she prayed that she would have a good last high school race. and her last race was not grea. There were tears. And rears when she called me to tell me she qualified. So rad trip to ther side of teh state next weekend Wednesday Jake is going through the temple. So many mixed feelings for so many reasons. I shouldn't expect people to show up but sometimes it is just so hard when my mom is the only "church...
