annnnddd...the husband must have read this post and charmed me with these beauties!


What a perfect time to be surprised with these gorgeous, fall, dandies! Kudos, Mr. D.! You don't even read my blog, but you must have telepathically known a girl needed some sunshine! Feeling extra loved and appreciated, an extra sparkle in my step. :) Thanks, doll!

A Few Weird Months..But Better Times to Come!

Well it's been a while since my last post. Feel like life's got me by the pony tail lately! School started and the homework and the backpack checking of the kindergartner daily, the reading books and tallying them up for that oh so fantastic Book It program (remember those personal pans people from Pizza Hut?!) So tasty! All of these little details and a 2 year old who has somehow morphed into an alligator that I wrestle most days to change a diaper, get a shoe on, put it back on after he removes it, or simply to wrangle him into the car seat on any given day.:)
Oh, and we are in the heart of Cross Country season which my over energized husband who can cram more into life than I have ever seen is coaching it. Not to mention...have I mentioned we have managed to pass around/ ingest about 4 different viruses in the last 3 weeks?!
I am not a fan of a Debbie Downer, so I do apologize to my most of loyal friends and family if I've seem to lost my sense of humor or ability to even crack a smile lately..excuse the recent Debbie Downer in me if you've seen her.:) My goal is to turn that frown upside down and count my blessings, to remember to laugh at my alligator and strive to be that Mommy that my kids really do need and want around. Nobody wants a grouch for a Mama! So....my pledge to the world..I promise to be my happy self and to not let my ship go under, even though it feels as if it's been hit with a few minuscule torpedoes!! Hold me accountable friends, family and fellow creatures!!:)
Love, ME! MYSELF and STEPHANIE
