STOP

This is what I want to tell my kids, STOP STOP STOP.... stop growing, stop getting older, just STOP. It just seems like time is spinning out of control. School will be over in 2 months, then Autumn will be a Junior, Tymber 7th grade and Hope a 1st grader. With my own school taking up so much time I feel like they are getting away from me. I was in tears the other day thinking of Autumn going to college in a few years. We won't even talk about Hope, okay yes we will, last week she learned to ride her bike without training wheels, Saturday I caught her reading a book, sounding out words and reading, what? when did that happen? what is going to happen when she doesn't want her mommy to read to her anymore? She is so proud of herself. We went to the library to get her some easy read books. Today she showed me she can do front flips on the trampoline. What? When did that happen? Seems like yesterday she couldn't get on the trampoline without someone helping her.. Then there is Tater Bug, besides the fact she is maturing quickly, and emotional, haha, she is just a blast. What a fun spirit she is, she loves to argue, if I say black I can gurantee she will say white, the teen years with her will be... interesting.

Talk to me when your baby only has one more year before he is off to college. It does go by toooo quickly. I missed my sons younger years because I was owned by a corporation. I'm sooo happy that I clean houses - just because I'm here in the morning and after school - this time has meant the world to me - because I've missed sooo much.

I can't believe how fast Hope is growing. It think it is faster for her because she thinks she is as big as her sisters. There isn't a lot you can do - because you really need to get some college in your pocket. There will be more time this summer to play - and you need to make it a priority to play when you don't work or study. Who cares about a clean house?? LOL! You need to play.
