1st day of school

Well, today was the day, both of my kids had there first full day of school. It went well for both. Alex got to go to the treasure chest, so that is good. Bri is happy with her schedule. I think it is funny I have a Senior and a Kindergartner. It should be a fun year. I do have to say I missed them today. It was very quite at work, I did get lots of food made, there was no one to distract me. So, we are back to early bed time and getting up early, both of which Alex does not like. At least I don't have to worry about dinner :) I have that covered. You too could have dinners in your freezer ready for dinner, just come see me. (just a small plug for the business lol).

One down one to go

Finally, both of my children go to school this week. I just dropped Alex off for his first day of Kindergarten. He did Kindergarten readiness last year so it was not sad like last year. He was ready to go,and I was ready for him to go lol. I would post a pic but the digital camera had dead, so I had to take pics with my other camera, so I will post one later. And, Bri goes Wednesday (Woo Hoo), that sounds bad, but it is time for them to be at school and not with me at work, or at home fighting with each other. It is hard for me to believe that this is Bri's last year of high school, this time next year I will be helping her off to college, wow, that is hard to believe. Time just goes by so fast.

12 Years ago today


12 years ago today my sweet niece Kiera was born, and 6 short months later she was gone (She had RSV). In many ways it seems like it has been a hundred years, since I stood outside the door and heard her first cry. I was in love from the minute I laid eyes on her. She was such a sweet baby girl. She had a smile that would lite up the room, she was always so happy. She spent most of her young life with me or my mom, we adored her.
At the time she died I was not following God, I had a hard time with this. I was very angry with God, when my moms preacher tried to talk to me I was not very nice to him (I am ashamed of that now), but I just did not want to hear what he had to say. I would be lying if I said that I understood why God had to take her, but I do know now that there IS a reason and that one day I WILL be with her again. There is much more to this story, but today I just want to focus on the good not all of the ugly stuff. I have been very weepy today, I still miss her, she was only with us for 6 months, but she was my sweet little pudding. Happy Birthday Sweet Kiera.

My First time in the Paper

We had our first sampling last night, and Sara from the DNJ was there and she did a great article on us. I am not so happy that my picture was in the paper. I hate pictures of myself, but it was a great article and I pray it will bring business. So, I guess it is ok that there was a pic of me.
