Sweet. Words. Today.
Its been awhile. We've been busy. I've also been out of ideas. The kids have been helping me in that department lately. A few things I wanted to post, but haven't had the chance. Will try to post them soon.
This morning was a cold morning. Jackets needed. I pulled up to the kids summer program and walked K to her building.
She asked - are you cold Mom?
I said yes, its chilly out. Are you cold?
K - No, I'm warm with LOVE.
Me - That's very sweet, where do you learn things like that.
K - I just feel it, from God.
Amazing the things that K comes up with. Warms my heart! Hope it warms yours!

Three Word Thursday
Walking. To. School.
Remember when you were growing up, and had to walk to school, both ways, uphill, in the snow…etc. Today is a little different day. Not many kids walk to school anymore. In our household, with both parents working, it seems almost impossible. But this week, Daddy is on vacation. And Mommy decided to take Monday off to join him - and relax after Super Bowl weekend! I was determined though on Sunday, that on Monday morning, I would attempt to walk the kids to school. I got the question from other people - Why, is it "walk-to-school day?" No, I just thought it would be nice, and good exercise.
When Monday morning came, the kids were actually excited. Bubs asked if he got to wear his headphones & listen to his Ipod. I said - sure. Now the elementary school is a couple blocks away, so I wasn't sure how long it would take. I had gave us plenty of time. And to our surprise, Daddy got up & joined us too! The whole family walked to school. The kids loved it. Daddy & Mommy got to talk on the way and smile while we watched the kids listen to their ipods. And occasionally sing us their songs! We were one of the first to get to the school and walk around back to the playground. The kids ran around for about 15 minutes. Burned a lot of energy before sitting down in their classrooms. Bubs & K loved having us walk them to their classroom & wave goodbye to them as they went in. Oh, how I wish I could do that every day!
Daddy & I walked the 15 minute walk back home & then vegged out at home all day watching movies. It was a very nice relaxing day! I definitely need to plan more of those.
That Monday morning started the routine for the week. Bubs begged Daddy to walk him to school on Tuesday. The rain started Monday night and he couldn't make any promises. BUT, Tuesday morning the blue sky popped throught the clouds and the 3 of them walked to school. Mommy was back at work :( On Wednesday they did the same thing, but K got mad because they didn't get to school early enough this time to play on the playground!
Last night I talked to Bubs about this routine coming to an end. Daddy goes back to work next week. I was trying to work out how I could possibly still walk them to school. If we left earlier - I could walk them to EDCC, walk back home & then drive myself to work. For all of us to get that exercise, I could make some sacrafices! That wasn't enough for him, he didn't want to go to EDCC, he wanted to go straight to the playground and Mrs. Peterson's class. So, then its back to driving to EDCC. Its their choice. He said "You're making me have a bad day!" And he was upset with me as he went to bed.
He remembered our conversation this morning and was just happy that Daddy was walking him to school again. "How many more days?" he asked. Just today & tomorrow. "Then its stay home day?" Yes, then its the weekend.
We'll see how this morning's walk to school went when I talk to them later this evening.
(I have to thank my playgroup mom/friend Kim for giving me the idea to walk the kids to school. She walks her kids a mile every morning!)

Wear. Red. Tomorrow.
Tomorrow is National Wear Red Day.
Thousands of Americans will be wearing red to draw attention to this startling fact:
Over 430,000 women are silenced each year by cardiovascular disease –
and most of these deaths are preventable.
I’m writing because I hope you’ll wear something red tomorrow to honor those women –
and that you’ll help fund the research and programs that can save them.
Today, we’re launching a Go Red & Give campaign.
Nearly every minute, another woman succumbs to cardiovascular disease.

A. Good. Day.
Its pretty amazing how the nice weather changes attitude. The sun actually came out yesterday and the rain went away - for now.
You know its going to be a good day...
- when there are giggles coming from Bubs when I wake him up with a snuggle and tickle.
- after I turn on K's light and say good morning but leave to make breakfast, and then she comes running out of her room 1/2 dressed with a hug and kiss for ME!
- when there's not a single tear, whine, or complaint before we get in the car.
- when the music is blasting music from Wicked and the kids sing along.
- when everyone gets dressed, eats breakfast, gets vitamins, brushes teeth, goes potty, and gets out the door before 7:30!
- when the kids get out of the car & race into EDCC.
- I get to work early & have a gift card to buy a cup of coffee across the street at Starbucks.
It was a good morning! I'm sure there's more, but that's it for now. I hope the rest of the day & weekend goes as well as my morning did.
And I pass on a smile to you! Hope your day is good as well.

Thank. You. Librarians.
On Tuesday, it was Muffins with Mom at the kids school. I got to eat muffins & grapes, and drink coffee with the kids (who drank milk or orange juice). And then I took them to their classroom. Martin Luther King Day threw us all off on what day it was. It was Tuesday. K's library day. There was only one of the 2 books in her back to return. That meant she could not check out another and then the tears started rolling down her face, right there in the hallway. She was mad at me because I couldn't go home and get the book, or bring it back at lunchtime. I felt it only right to mention to her teacher why she was so upset first thing in the morning. But then I really had to run, or Bub was going to be late to his class. K's teacher reassured me & tried with K to say that it was going to be Ok.
I felt horrible. Library day means so much to the kids. K's in 2nd grade and that means she gets to check out 2 books. It crushed her when she couldn't check out any books that day. But, there was good news last night, K was happy to let me know that the librarian let her check out books anyway.
That reminded me though, that I had to tell Bubs there was no library for him this week. The librarian told me that she had a meeting and all morning classes to the library were cancelled. Now it was Bubs' turn to be upset about library, and not seeing his mom at school.
I got a note from the librarian this morning stating that she was sick and would be out today and tomorrow. I responded with a - thank you for the reminder and that Bubs was bummed. Here's her response...
"K" was in library yesterday and she forgot a book but I let her check out. One of her classmates asked why I let her. I wanted to just say she's special but I replied that her mom was my volunteer so you'd make sure it got back. the perks of having a volunteer mom, sometimes nice:)
I just have to say another THANKS! This warmed my heart today with all the rain & cold weather.

Shopping. With. Bubs.
At first that doesn't really sound all that inviting. I had errands to run last Sunday, and Bubs spoke up to say that he wanted to go. I think the real reason, was to see what decorations were out there on the streets and in the store. He is constantly on a look out! Doesn't even matter anymore what kind - Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas. He loves them all & points absolutely everything out. Its exhausting to listen to all that enthusiasm!
At one store, I took Bubs to the dressing room with me to try on clothes. Its been awhile, I guess a LONG while, because when we got in the little room he said "Mommy, is this the bathroom?"
I said, "No, this is the dressing room."
Bubs: "I'm going to sit here (on the little corner piece ledge of a seat) where are you going to sit?"
Me: "I'll be trying on these pants, I don't need to sit down."
The dressing room was practically full and since Bubs is not ever very quiet, our conversations must have made a few people laugh if they overheard.
After the first pair of pants I tried on, Bubs said "Mommy, you look beauuuutiful." I laughed and said thank you. But then he said it after the next pair of pants and again after the next - same exact saying. I was cracking up and at one point I said I wasn't sure what he was looking at because one pair was way too big.
I have to say, my little 5 year old knows how to make Mommy feel good!

Bubs. Sharing. Day.
So I was a bad mom last week, I forgot Bubs' sharing day last Thursday and did not realize it. It was on the calendar, but it would help to actually look at that calendar DAILY! There was no school on Friday (Teacher furlough day) so it wasn't until after school Monday that Bubs brought it to my attention. That night, we picked out the item to share, practiced his "speech," & sent it to school with him on Tuesday. He didn't do it Tuesday but said something about doing it in 2 weeks. Wasn't sure what he meant by that, but left it in the backpack all week just in case.
The night 2 nights, I mentionned sharing & we went over what he was going to say in front of the class. We practiced - the words, the sound of his voice, and looking out at the class.
Turns out what he was telling me was that he would do it in TWO DAYS. On Thursday he brought in his brown paperbag with the following 3 clues:
1. It's scary. (in a sc..ar...y voice)
2. It makes noise.
3. Its for Halloween.
Did you guess what it is?
I thought those were very broad clues and figured no one would guess it. I talked to his teacher during my volunteer time at the school today. First, I apologized about missing his original sharing date. She said that it was ok, but she only does sharing on Thursdays. The point of this sharing is that the kids get practice getting up in front of the class to talk. I mentionned that we had plenty of time to practice - the entire past week!
She said that the kids all seemed to guess what it was. (I'll have to ask him if he told his friends beforehand!) He did well and then she talked about his strange little man voice! Sort of deep, scratchy. How funny, I've had several people tell me that!
(Oh & by the way did you guess what it was? A toy zombie doll. When you squeeze it, its eyes light up red and this horrible screeching sound comes out of it.)

Today's. Technological. Kids.
Last night at dinner I told the family that I was planning to move our old Sony computer into K's room. There, it could be used to play their kids games that seem to take up lots of the computers memory. The computer is over 7 years old, but I just had a friend wipe it clean for us, so we could still try to use it. K got all excited and asked if she was going to be able to "Google" on it.
After laughing, I told her no, we had not planned on connecting it to the internet. If she wants to do that, she could do that out on our main computer in the family room. She said, "Ok, so if I don't know how to spell something, you will be right there to help me." EXACTLY! I would hate for her to misspell a URL and get something in appropriate.
Earlier in the evening Daddy & the kids were at soccer practice. K loves to borrow our phone and usually begs to send the other parent a text. She sent me a text during Bub's practice. This is exactly how it looked:
Hi mom we might go to Mikadonls. I love you so mush then you.We will be back. 6:22pm
(translation by K: Hi mom, we might go to McDonalds. I love you so much more than you will ever know. We will be back soon.)
Too cute! She came home & I told her how I loved her so MUSH. :) And to think, when I was that age, I was only playing pong on our ATARI!

Volunteering. Is. Fun.
I really wish I had time or energy to volunteer more. Now that school is back in session - I'm back at the elementary school library for my 2nd year as a "Friend of the Library." Once a week (on Thursdays) I take my lunch hour and head over to the kids' school. I signed up for one 1/2 hour time slot which equals one class visit to the library. It gives me approximately 15 minutes to drive there, 1/2 hour there & 15 minutes back.
This year, I was early signing up & lucky to get Bub's class into my schedule. Which I thought would be good because I could keep up with Bubs and his teacher (little did I know when I signed up how much I really needed to check in with the teacher!)
K's schedule just didn't work out for me and she understood. Her one request was for me to try to stop by the classroom to say hi. The first time I tried to visit, she was off to P.E. Today I went in before I volunteered and reached her just in time as they were getting ready to head out the door. Its amazing though what one minute of visitation will do - she came over & hugged me with a huge smile on her face "Mommm-my!" And it put a smile on my face too, even now, thinking about it. So much love passed between us in that one little hug!!
From there I went back to the Library. Bubs was line leader today, so he led the class (all smiles when he saw me) into the library. They turned their books in on the cart and then sat down for the Librarian to read them a story. I checked in all 20 something books and then got to staple Library agreements on the wall of the school's main corridor. (The children signed that they were responsible for their library books). I must say that there is something therapeutic about smacking that stapler against the wall. A nice break from all other outside responsibilities! I didn't get too much time to do that though, because Kindergarteners pick books out really fast! I guess since they can't really read yet, they are more anxious to grab their books & be first in line to check them out. I heard Bubs proudly mention to other kids that I was "HIS mommy". A smile rose between the two of us! And before I knew it, time was up, the students walked in a line out the door back to their classroom.
The time passed way too fast! I'll be back next week for more volunteer work!

Growing. Too. Fast.
I got an email with photo today of the birth of a baby boy born yesterday. It got me to thinking about my children's birth and how it almost seems like yesterday that I held them in my arms as newborns. In actuality its been 5 and 7 years! How hard that is to believe.
On Tuesday, Bubs let me hold him in my lap like a baby while he cuddled with me. He was heavy and his body extended in both directions way past the width of my lap. But his warmth felt good in my arms as he looked up at me with the same big brown eyes as he did as an infant.
Yesterday, K came running out of her room to me - "I've grown mom, I've grown!" I came quickly, wondering how she could be so sure that she had grown. To me, yes, she's bigger than she was when she was an infant, but seeing her day to day, she seems just about the same size. She jumped into her closet and showed me. We have been marking her wall in pencil with dates and lines since 2003 when we moved into the house. To my surprise - she was almost 2 inches since the last measurement. That measurement was in MAY! Wow. I looked down at her beautiful blue excited eyes and said that she must have been going through a growth spurt. She was so proud of herself.
And of course, its not pants season yet, so we'll see how hers fit as we move into fall (next week)!

In. My. Heart.
Bubs favorite game at the moment is this Disney Edition Memory Game.
What surprises us most is his ability to make the matches without even trying. He has beaten everyone in our household and even adult friends & grandparents. When I play him and want to try to beat him, I have to fully concentrate on what cards are being flipped. He pulls matches out of the blue. When asked how he knew that was a match - he responded while patting his chest...
"I know it in here, in my heart."
One of the head to head matches.

Breaks. My. Heart.
To see my kids cry. Why do kids have to be so mean?
We had a great morning & once again got out of the house on time. (Yay!!) I dropped Bubs off at his EDCC building while K walked in hers. She was all smiles! We all were. But everything changed when I walked through her EDCC doors. I heard sobbing & then looked up to see her with tears down her face. She had tried to join a pair of kids playing on the floor and apparently they told her she could not play with them. I couldn't get a whole lot of info out of her, but I tried to comfort her. I told K that, yes, what they did was not nice. We should make sure never to treat anyone else like that. We know how it feels. There were plenty of other things to do, was it possible to do something else? "No" she said :( I wiped her tears & gave her a bunch of big hugs. The teacher started talking to her, distracting her. I asked her for a smile - she tried. And then I had to leave. Thinking about it now, saddens me! I know she was probably fine a little while later. But it really breaks my heart - I can't wait to see her when I get home. More hugs are waiting!!

Starting. Something. New.
I thought this was a great idea when I saw it on a blog from an old friend from Heidelberg High. http://samanthaleelee.blogspot.com/
I could do that. Just think of 3 words for the day. Might get me writing at least once a week. We'll see how it goes. I now find myself trying to sum everything up into 3 words. Funny how much thought I put into the "perfect" 3 words. I had one completely different idea today, up until the last moment & then went with these. I felt like I should explain what I was doing.
Might as well go with 3 more words - random thought that P might find funny, if not now, maybe in the future.

Yummy. Butter. Puffcorn.
My work got a sampling of the Butter Puffcorns from Frito Lay and absolutely fell in love with them. They wanted more so I asked P where we could buy them. He said everywhere. So off I went. Pick up a few things at Walmart, check out the chip aisle - No Puffcorn's. OK, I'd better get back to work, but let me swing by Lucky's first. No Butter flavored, just cheese. Aaaghhh - P, what did you mean everywhere? I can't find it anywhere. He said it looks like they staled out of the stores. It's a new product that hasn't caught on yet. So my co-workers mean business & call Frito Lay's 800 line. They get a list where they can find bags - a place called "Bottom's Up Liquor" in Oakland, or a couple other mom & pop shops 15+ miles from here. They don't go that distance for them, but we just got word that TODAY is the day, they have been put in a store near us! For just $2 a bag, my co-workers would buy out the case. So, if you have an urge for Butter Flavored popcorn - this is the snack for you!! Oven Baked, no hulls or hard kernals. They melt in your mouth. Enjoy.
