It feels like it's been a while since I've sat down to blog.
I miss it, I do...
but it's also easy to forget when you're busy living life.
An article was published on She Knows called
Most inspiring mom blogs
...and I was on it. gasp.
It seems
weird to read someone else writing about you
... definitely made my heart dance and put a smile on my face.
I feel so honored, grateful & humbled to be considered inspiring.
My little triplets make my heart so happy.
They are so full of joy and love and imagination.
I peeked into the dining room this evening to find them
dancing and singing to Friend by Ziggy Marley.
They were singing out
"because you are my friend"
over and over and over.
{you can hear the song on you-tube
here}
Today was full of sweet things
...you know those days that are just filled with little gifts of love
that you could so easily look over.
but your eyes and heart are open
and you catch each beautiful little sweet thing.
Today was one of those days.
I bought 4 bags of apples, 2 bags of pears & 2 bags of oranges yesterday.
I think we ate 2 whole bags today.
Not to mention a pomegranate, bananas, 3 red pepper & bag of snow peas.
And those were just snacks!
Can teenagers really eat more??!!! OY!
I drove the road to town 4 times yesterday.
Yes, that would be 2 round trips.
1 1/2 hours on the gravel
and a little over 1 1/2 hours on the pavement.
I made it all the way to town and realized that I had taken my card out of my wallet. sigh.
So home we went to get my card
and then back to town.
At least I was able to see the sunset coming and going. {grin}
While I was laying with Ozzie tonight at bedtime,
I asked him something that made him happy today.
and.... he.... said........
"telling you you're the most beautiful mama ever"
{with a big hug and kiss}
This is Marley.
He was named after Bob Marley.
His tail looks like a baseball bat.
He is really fluffy, even though the picture doesn't look like it
and he has a new friend.
Wiley the wild cat, who is now officially ours.
The boys still can not believe we tamed a wild cat.
I can't either!
Friday is our super clean day.
All the big kids have jurisdictions, that change monthly.
We were sort of lax the last few weeks
and the house needed a good cleaning today.
Everyone helped and no one complained
...but they were for the most part
S.L.O.W.
One of the most enjoyed chores is burning the trash.
Grayson is usually the one in charge of that
and he loves it.
Really, what boy wouldn't?
They get to drive the gator, dump and throw stuff, light it on fire
and watch it {from a distance}.
We still don't have snow!
I love snow, the kids love snow, it's December,
and we live in the frozen prairies of North Dakota!
Where is the snow?
sigh. I guess I'll just have to have some patience. {grin}
I have so many things I'd like to share with you guys.
I'd love to talk about food, nutrition, photography, homeschool
and many other things.
I just don't take the time very often.
But if there is something you'd really like me to share I'd love to know
and I'll try to fit it in sometime soon.
