One of my favorite days of the week is Tuesday. Why you may ask? Tuesday folders. Tuesday Folder's are the day Teresa and Jack bring home a whole folder full of stuff from school. Yes some of the stuff I could care less about, but it is fun to see your child progressing and growing through out the school year. Also the hard work you as a parent have put in to help your child study for those test on spelling, insects or Native Americans and finding out they got all of the questions right. Most of the items do end up in the trash, but a few things are special enough to hold onto and keep in their bin.
One day I hope to be able to sit down with my kids and look back at where they started and show them how much work they have put in to become the successful and strong individuals that they have become.

All About Me
As mother's we take our children to the dentist, make sure that they receive their yearly check-ups, finish their homework, and make it on time to their various after school activities and play dates. Also as mother's we sometimes forget about ourselves.
This week I am making it all about me and will try not to feel guilty about it. I will take the 30 minutes to work out or read my book. I will listen to my music in the car and fix what I want for dinner.
This is my week to re energize myself because that will help me be a stronger.
A special thanks to my girlfriends for helping me remember to take time for myself and enjoy an evening out!

We are all different
First - has it really been a year since I last did a post?!? Boy have I gotten behind! My new goal is to try and write a post once a week to try and capture all of those little things that happen in life and we seem to forget as time goes on.
Now, onto the real reason I decided to write. Bianca recently turned two and two is a big birthday in our family. My mother in law has a picture of all of her grandchildren at the age of two in the "kids bedroom". So this is one birthday we have to get photographed. While I was putting the photos away, I looked back at the other kids at the same age and was amazed at how different all three of the kids looked. Each one seems to have a similar trait her or there, but each child really was created individually.
As my mother in law has so cleverly said before when asked who Bianca (or any of the other kids) look like, she looks like Bianca.
