There is always a lot going on here. I don’t ever seem to have the time to give you a proper run down of the different things that are happening. Or I forget them long before I get on the computer. I can tell you that my niece

Peppermist

and her friend

the Additive….

Have decided that I am the town idiot. I was thinking I was all smart and started a snark contest. And we must remember that Peppermist. She is the daughter of none other than the SNARK QUEEN. I didn’t have a chance. So now when things are said.

“I know it is because Auntie is the town idiot! ask her how it feels.”

Whatever

The other little turd niece the Pup… she was here for a few day’s last week. And they found the cherries that I thought I had hidden well enough for dinner.

WRONG PRONG! So when she came running over to let me know that it “LOOKS LIKE A HEART AUNTIE!” I was told I MUST take a picture to share…..

Not sure if that is a heart or a butt…. But she looks happy about holding a butt.

Here is why it is hard to get any chores done in my house. LOL… not the kids. It is because the Dog tells me what I can and cannot do…..

Not that I mind. Look how cute she is….Vaccuming can wait!

I shared a while ago how cool my oldest Dude is getting…. well look at today.

He was taking time to share with the little ones how to beat something on a D.S.!  I don’t have one of these in my house. Don’t like them! BUT the kids have played with them in many places. And when the little one G~bear comes over. He brings his. so…

that means the kids pile around it and enjoy laughing and learning together. But how cool that he is even letting them into his space. SO NEW!!!!!!! He is growing I tell you. Growing and changing.

I hope that you all have a wonderful day. I know that I have had an amazing week. And it is only going to get better.

was with my boy. (Picture taken on the trail!)

So it was a small day for me. I am ever so happy we did it together though. D~Fly and I are able to get time together one on one that isnt possable with all the other kids in the house.  Which is nice. I am finding that I look forward to the workouts with him more than I do with anyone else. NEVER thought that he and I would have this conection. I am so happy that we do.

we got in a 3 mile run. there is no map that I can show you. I was wanting too But the trails are not on mapmyrun.com so you are stuck with trusting me. LOL. went back over it with my bike/odometer so that I would know how far we went. it wasnt even how far. it was more about the walk before hand and the talking. He showed me the course that we were going to take. He knows it from Cross country running last year. and he wanted us to do it like it was the race. I …. DON’T mind.

so we walked and talked about all sorts of things. His BIO MOM is comig to town and we are working on visitation for her to be able to see him. This always brings fears for him. and for us…. I want him to voice them.  Now that he is older. HE IS DOING IT! all/any fear is ligitament. these… are even more so. as he has dealt with the crazienss that is his mother for a long time. He knows what will happen. But I reasure him. All will be fine.

easier said than done MOM!

Yeah for both of us babe. For both of us.

He has grown, something cool for him…. empathy and compasion is not something that he has shown regularly over the past 9 years we have had him. something about RAD makes it GONE! But this ….today….this happened.

D~Fly- “I~fly while we were headed to the car I think I smashed your lunch a little bit. and since we got the same thing… I would like you to have mine instead.”

Me-……….

I~fly……..”okay BIG BRO!” He of course at the age of 5 is seeing that the grass is greener…. not that it mattered… but you know kids are kids…

Me- “You know buddy you don’t have to do that.” hoping he will explain his feelings about it….

D~Fly… “yeah I know but I don’t want his day to be BLUNDERED because of my Fowl up.”

Me-…….

……… Okay … you know that is AWSOME empathy and compassion. I am SO PROUD OF YOU!……

Me- “Hey bud you are turning out to be just the coolest dude! I mean that. thank you for thinking about your brother and his feelings. that was really sweet.

D~Fly…….. THank you mom……….. *stunned*

so when we got home he MADE sure that the lunches were in perfect order. than let his brother choose. I was able to sit back and watch…. the boy t hat would have beat the CRAP out of anyone for thinking about LOOKING at his lunch just 2 years ago… freely give it to his little brother give him a hug and a kiss…. and just tell him he loved him.

I AM THE MOST BLESSED MOMMY ON THE EARTH!

Thank you Lord for sending this one to me.

red faces after running this morning!
