Weekend Reflection- The Home We Left Behind

http://digg.com/tools/diggthis.js Why am I up at 6’o’clock in the morning on a Saturday? I don’t really know myself. I just know that I can’t sleep. This week went by way too fast.

Maybe that is why I am up at 6am on a Saturday. Or maybe not. I finally downloaded the photos off our camera the other day.…

Weekend Reflection

Well here I am again sitting here sipping my coffee on a Saturday morning. I can’t believe that it is February already! This week was rather crazy just like the week before. The Terror had a great birthday. She is now 2. She got the movie Cinderella, some toys and a Go, Diego, Go birthday cake. On the day of her birthday I had to take the kids to this Celebration of the Educational Arts thing at my oldest’s school. She played her band instrument and sang for all the…
