Has it seriously been 3 weeks since I last posted? I'm behind.
On everything.
laundry. PTO (yes, even though it's summer). cleaning. primary chorister. blogging. garden. spending time with my husband. summer reading program. yard work. cooking/menu. animal chores. painting. raising 4 children. summer school work. family home evening. keeping the chickens from pooping on the porch (!). all. of. it.
I have been a bit overwhelmed, to say the least.
I have been a bit stressed for the last few weeks, but I have finally come to this conclusion:
So what! It's SUMMER.
And anyway, now that our second session of swim lessons is over I don't have to rush everyone out of the door every morning to go to the pool and I have way more time to do everythang.
(Learning to swim is great and all, I mean I'm totally for it of course, it's just that we were at the pool for 3 lessons in a row, everyday. We got there at the same time as the instructors, and we left at the same time as the instructors.)
The day after swim lessons I thought that I was going to be able to catch up on stuff.
But we woke that morning to asthma.
This time it wasn't Spencer, but KATE. It lasted 2 days. It totally wiped her out. I hate asthma. It's scary and just plain not fun.
NOT good; so not good.
Her asthma is gone now, for now - hopefully it was just sort of a one-time thing. Back to summer play...and getting stuff done around here. I love when I don't have to go anywhere. I'm feeling like I'm finally getting out of SURVIVAL MODE and back into THRIVAL MODE (thriving). . .
That's a good thing.

Oh man, am I feeling you on the behind thing. I am so dang behind it makes me sad. Tomorrow, though, I'm gonna try with all my might to catch up! And then I'll still be behind.
Oh, poor Kate. I hate asthma too. Ronin gets it with the vog, and I hate every minute of it. Give her a hug from me. I love her (and your boys too, of course), even though we've never officially met.
So glad your back...I've missed you!
Oh I've missed you too.
I love that pic of you and Wes. Gorgeous couple, you are!!
