tuesday ten

1. i'm a blog slacker

2. as of thursday at 12:50 i will have a 5th grader and an almost kindergarten-er.  i'm not pushing it, he's not a kindergaten-er until he starts school.

3. my personal trainer passed away last weekend. it is so sad and i don't know what happened to him, but he was only 23 and he was a very nice guy. pray for his family please, he has a sister that is graduating high school this year and my heart aches for them and for their loss.

4. i had lasik last thursday at lasik plus.  was blind as a bat (which bats aren't technically blind, but i like the saying) when i went in for the procedure and was 20/20 at my follow up the next morning.  the procedure was so quick, less than 10 minutes total and nick and ethan watched the whole thing.  i sat up and could see them through the window and started crying... incredible!

5. i'm thinking about what i'm going to fill my days with when my baby goes off to school?  most of the time i get caught on the fact that my baby is going to school... tear.

6. i haven't taken my camera out of the bag for over a week... that is so not me, but i'm just not in the mood lately.

7. i have a running bug.  the weather is ceasing to cooperate with my ambitions and i'm researching alternatives.

8. i'm thinking about incorporating some of my projects on the blog and turning it semi-crafty.  i don't have enough to say otherwise.  that might require pictures.  we'll see.

9. i think people need to remember to be kind, especially when they are dealing with the hearts of children.  particularly when you try to harden the heart of your own child towards others.  children are smart, they catch on and they will soon see the real "you" and you will begin to see that the only person you are hurting is your child and you are going to suffer for it when he is old enough to make his own choices.  just wait.

10. i am so excited for summer... swim team, summer movies, camping, family BBQs, week long trip to the beach with friends, vbs, evenings in the pool, watermelon, home made ice cream, and on and on.

happy tuesday.
