Who?

Do you ever feel obsolete? I do. I feel like nothing I do is good enough. The things that I need are on the back burner and forgotten. I know as a mother that these things happen but it seems a bit too much right now. I forgot what it is like to be a person. To laugh and to enjoy myself. Yes, I find joy in motherhood. But who am I? I wish I could remember. And what if who I was isn't good enough? I guess I am lost.

What a crazy Day!

This morning I was mopping the floor and suddenly I felt so strongly that something was horribly wrong! I freaked out. Dad had had a little surgery this morning so of course I called him immediately. He was fine. Groggy but fine. Mom wasn't home so I called her. Fine. So then I called Andrew. You guessed it... he was fine. My sister Shellee is pregnant and it isn't an easy pregnancy so I called her. Fine. Then I started texting. I called Andrew's mom. Fine. I texted almost everyone I could think of. Of course it was the last person I called because why would I call anyone else?

I had a friend having a really hard day. This economy is BAD! I had a sister who probably needed to talk and turns out Kiley was in the Nurse's office right as my feeling came. The good thing that came out of this. I talked to almost everyone I knew today. I am glad that everyone is okay. I hope that we can keep the people affected by this economy in our prayers and in our hearts.

Now I need a nap. All this worrying has exhausted me!

Amazing

Yesterday we went to Andrew's sister's house for a birthday/Easter celebration. It was her son's 4th birthday so we had birthday cupcakes and an easter egg hunt. While we were visiting the kids went out back to play and throw the football around. Uncle Jeff went out to play with all the kids. Jeff threw the ball to Wyatt and was suprised when he caught it so Jeff moved back and threw it a little harder and Wyatt caught it again. After a few more time of them throwing and catching Jeff came in amazed that Wyatt could catch the ball so well. A few minutes later Wyatt came in and said "mom Jeff can really throw the ball!" I laughed so hard at his amazement at Jeff's ability to throw a ball was just as amazed as Jeff with Wyatt catching the ball. Truly funny.
