Not so perfect life....

So, most of you realize I have made our blog private. I was determined to not post anything until life got better. Then I was thinking maybe it is good for others to know life isn't always perfect in the blogging world. I'm not blogging this for pity but we will accept prayers. You really need to read all three reports to know the truth is somewhere mixed in with the untruths.

So, what have I learned......

• Sometimes life really stinks
• The church is true and amazing people step in to make life a little more tolerable.
• Everyone makes mistakes
• What a blessing it is to be alive and have our family together!!

Today's update: We were at court for a pre-trial hearing. Our attorney ask us if we would mind delaying a week. I can't explain it but it really felt like the right thing to do, so we will be back in court next week.

Hair Time??

I want to ignore my housework today, you know the laundry, dusting, bathroom, kitchen, I don't even want to make a meal. So, what do I want to do today.... I guess Emma's hair.

Kids Say...

Here are my three quotes of recent things my sweet children have said.

Jackson: "I don't love it!"

Conversation of Emma and Jackson:
Jackson talking, "Rain, go away I don't want you!"
Emma "Jackson you can't talk to the rain to make it go away. You have to sing to it!! Rain, Rain Go Away Come Again another Day!"


Emma: "Mom, why does your face look like that?"

Crying in the other Room!!

I hear crying...
I am sure Reuben is involved....
I walk in the room to see.....Reuben says, "I hold Nora, she loves me!!"
I did not know love sounded like crying.

Smile

Nora is almost 2 months old!!

I want to go too!!

Reuben really wants to be a big kid. I took this picture on the first day of school at his insistence. Thank heaven I decided to send him to preschool it starts next week.
Do you see our sneaky Jackson in the back?

I just became a great MOM!!

I sent my kids to the first day of school... I love them dearly and I love them
even more when they get home from a long day at school!! Oh, and a cute
picture of Nora she has lots of grins for Grandma.
