Dear blog,
Good morning, I have missed you. The thing is I have been beyond busy recently. Yesterday I woke for a walk at 5:30am. Then rushed home and cleaned up my house. Then a friend came over for the day. When she left I relaxed for a couple of hours. Then we headed to church. By the time I got home I was ready to collapse in bed.
Today is another crazy day. I woke up to walk and realized it was raining. Today, I wished I was one of those people who could go back to sleep. So here I am for a few minutes. I am about to hop in the shower before this crazy day happens. I have a 9am dental appointment that is scarrying the bajebes (I know not a word) out of me. See last week I had my teeth and gums deep cleaned and a tooth pulled. Today they check my progress and then tell me what else needs done. After my dental appointment I will take the kids somewhere for lunch. Because, we have about 2 hours of down time.
After lunch I am taking five children to Wal-mart to shop for church. This is going to be interesting because I am on a tight budget which is doable except remember I have 5 blessings with me. When we are done shopping we will run back to the Chapel and organize a closet and label all of the food. Sunday we are having a picnic at church and I am really excited about it. But it means that I am not in my normal kitchen cooking and so I am making list of what we need.
When I leave the chapel I am going to a friend’s house to babysit. This is probably going to be the most relaxing part of my day. The part I look forward to the most.
Then it is time to come home and relax with the man of my dreams and eat a wonderful dinner. I do not know what that dinner is yet. It is days like today where I wish I had a menu planned. Because I would have remembered to set out a roast and put it in the crock pot.
The next couple of days should be pretty quiet. I am going to make neapolitan cupcakes this weekend but that is about it.
So dear blog (and blog friends) I have not forgotten about you. I will be back this weekend. I have lots of wonderful things to talk about.

My Hero
Rob and I have been married 15 years. He is my hero. Rob is a Warrant Officer in the army. I so look up to this man. He is brilliant. I could not ask for a better husband or father. He is the spiritual leader of our family. I am so blessed to have this man in my life and thank God for him daily.
Michael
Michael is almost 20 years old. No longer my little boy who needs mom to make his PB&J. He is currently a student at Pensacola Bible College studying to be a Evangelist. He still enjoys video games and hanging out with friends.
Faith
Faith is my beautiful 16 year old. She teaches me daily how to love myself and others. She loves to help with the little kids She loves to sing and dance and would not be caught in public without make up and jewelry. Faith is Faith, she does not try to impress anyone
Hope
Hope is my fiesty 14 year old. Hope loves anything that has to do with animals. She is happiest when she is outside with the goats and chickens. She loves to help in the church nursery. She is as tall as her momma and still growing.
Grace
Grace is 11 years old and is my special blessing. Grace was born at 2.12 pounds and was in a hurry to get here. She has been non stop since then. She loves being the baby and makes sure everyone knows it
Jason
Jason is 8 . His favorite things to do are to help me clean up and to eat. If you ask him what he wants to do he says I want to go grocery shopping.
James
James is and a joy to be around. He loves to snuggle and be told that he is doing something right.
Jacob
My precious newest blessing. Born September.
A.C.U.
A C U is the newest addition to our family. She was a stray and found her way (through a friend) to our home. She is so adorable and the kids were instantly in love with her
Chickens
When we bought our farm house (okay farm is not really true) we decided we would get chickens. My amazing hero agreed to 10 and some how we ended up with 21. I have been told that is called chicken math.
Goats
I have to be honest, I love my goats. If it was up to me I would have them walking around the house. We have two for milking and one for meat. Next year we should have three for milking. Although the thought of my baby girl getting pregnant is hard for me.
Howie and Gracie
