Love my Boys

I love my boys so very much, they mean everything to me.  I may not say it often, but I am proud of all 3 of my son's.  They each have their own uniqueness about them and I so love that.  As this weekend comes, my youngest will be Baptized and my oldest turns 16, he will be ordained a Priest in my church on Sunday.  Weird to think that this happens the same week.  Connor's birthday was the end of October, so he should of been baptized earlier this month, but my dad will be coming, so we decided to do both of them the same weekend.

My Week

     I have had a pretty okay week; my husband did something wonderful for me and if you see me on facebook you know what he did.  I haven't been feeling all that great lately with everything going on and I guess he wanted to cheer me up.  Came home from work on Monday and he said to check the bed.  There were flowers, Taylor Swift's new CD - Red and a card with 9 ladies in my ward writing nice things about me, which by the way made me cry.  I have a hard time knowing who cares about me and to see this card, really made me go Wow people really care about me.  People really notice me and it was just wonderful that I will have this card and I can read it over and over again.  Also, this week my husband finally got the go ahead to go back to work on Tuesday and so that was a blessing.  Then the kids and I haven't had school or work, since Wednesday and its been a nice break.  Then Thursday was Thanksgiving and it was a wonderful day.  My husband made breakfast and then watched The Macy's Thanksgiving Parade and it was fun to watch.  Then later, we went to my aunt and uncle's house for dinner and it was so good and like always I got stuffed.  Why does that always happen, but the food was so good.  Then came home, I played the Wii with my 2 youngest and it was fun to play with them.  Then after I put the kids to bed, my husband and I watched Miracle on 34th Street - it's tradition to watch it on Thanksgiving night.

     Today I didn't really do much, but my husband and I went to Walmart to do a little bit of Christmas shopping around 10 am and it wasn't to bad.  Got a few good deals, so that is always good.  Then later my husband went to work and I watched Elf with my 2 youngest kids.  They also wanted me to play the Wii by myself, so they could watch and that was fun.  Made dinner and then relaxed the rest of the evening.  There you have it, my week in a nutshell.

Wondering...

Just been wondering about many things lately.  Wondering how many people read my blog, which I know isn't that many.  Wondering who really likes me for me and not pretending to like me.  Through the years, I have had people hate me for no reason at all, well maybe it was my glasses that I had to wear or that I wasn't that pretty.  Wondering what do for Thanksgiving, staying home and who knows what to do.  Wondering if I will ever be able to adopt a little girl, if I win Publishers Clearing House I probably will be able to.  Wondering if my husband's finger will ever get better from his work related accident that happened on Nov. 1.  There you have it, the things I have been wondering about.

Remember...

 I need to remember this, so does everyone else.   I hope everyone has a Wonderful Wednesday.  Enjoy.

Stress

I have been really stressed lately, ever since my husband hurt himself at work Thursday night.   He goes back to the doctor on Monday, but he can't go back to work, until the doctor says its okay.  I just need it all to go away, but that won't happen for awhile.  To much going on right now and it is just hard for me to breath sometimes, but I guess things will get better, it has too.
