Just catching up!

Wow, time just marches on and before you know it two weeks have past and you haven't posted a single blog. So much has happened in the past two weeks, some good -- some bad, but at the end of all I am left thankful for the wonderful life I have in Christ.

In order to catch up here is a list of my "Top 10 Moments" over the past couple of weeks:

1. Ethan has overcome his fears at baseball practice and is doing GREAT!
2. The Beth Moore bible study has been absolutely incredible.
3. Garrett has had perfect attendance this school year and will be awarded with a day field trip to Incredible Pizza and then an afternoon of play at the park. He is really excited!! It's great to see my kids learn that hard work and determination pays off.
4. Chase's team took "2nd" place in their baseball tournament in Branson over Mother's Day weekend. It was great to see so many people in my family come and support him. He literally had a whole cheering section during the championship game.
5. Ethan and I had a conversation about the meaning of Mother's Day. He thought that meant that I took care of everything because after all it is Mother's Day. When I explained to him that it really meant he was supposed to take extra special care of me on that day to show me how much he loves and appreciates me he asked this question, "Then when is kids day?" It was a really great glimpse into the mind of my 4 year old.
6. Chase finally completed his Science Fair project for this year and received an "A", YEAH!!
7. Garrett had Field Day at his school and enjoyed having his Dad with him the whole day.
8. Ethan had his Spring Program at preschool and with a little bribery he participated in every song. (I guess I should have also asked that he smile too.) We enjoyed an ice cream cone at Braum's afterwards for his accomplishment.
9. Chris was actually home for a week!! This is always a good thing, however it is something we are learning to treasure since he seems to be out of town more and more.
10. My trip to San Francisco with my husband is now only 2 days away and I am really excited!!
