Barf!

So it seems when ever I start to think I can handle things life,anxiety etc. something once again gets thrown at us. Collin called me last night coming home from work and to be honest I didn't feel like getting out of bed to answer the phone it was already 9 pm I had an appointment for Reese's conference the next day and being sick I wanted to get a full nights sleep. The teacher had nothing but praise. I just love that girl! Well he called again so I thought it must be important at that point. The truck broke down. Poor guy WAS going to have to walk a few miles home for my laziness to get out of bed ;( But thankfully he tried calling again. I am also blessed with having great neighbors so I wouldn't have to role my kids out of bed. Thanks Matt!
Lord go easy on me because I feel that I am at my max. I don't know how much more of this I can take right now. Help me to see the good in all this. Help Collin today as I know he is dealing with a lot of stress at work.

    I'll be praying for you, too, sweet friend. Only a few more weeks before you and Collin get to escape for a little while :)

    With everything we've gone through these past few months, I've cried a lot of tears wondering if this is not the "He won't give us more than we can handle" then what is? Or maybe I don't want to know or get there. Know that I'm praying for you and am continually impressed with what a great mom and wife you are!

    I prayed for you today, Amber. Thanks for being vulnerable and real. May the Lord meet you today in a way that will give you strength and encouragement for this day!

    Soooooo.... when you say barf does that mean you're barfing?? Hope not. Praying for you too. Glad Reese is doing good in school, I've been waiting to hear! Isn't Collin driving his motorcycle?? Tell him running to work saves on gas. Sean did that for awhile, until it got too dark and cars were almost hitting him!! We don't have sidewalks though. Have a GREAT day Amber, remember this is the day the Lord has made and given to you. Rejoice in it!

Okay Dallas when you hit the ball you need to run to 1st base, 2nd base, and then home.....no mom! I don't want to go home!Reese was outside singing today while she was on the swing. And she says to me. "Mom, the sun is coming out because I am singing....I am wakin it up!" Keep singing girl, keep singing!Dallas: Look mom his doesn't have twin wheels! (translation:training wheels)Dallas: When I am a daddy....I want one of those baby Norahs.So sweet!Reese: Mom I like these things...What things? Reese: These Rat-tat-too-ies Do you mean Tattoos?Reese: Yah! TattoosDallas was holding Norah and this is what he said....Norah pooped. She pooped 3 times....Oooo....she pooped 10 times mom!!Reese was going to the bathroom and when she was done she looked (as all kids do) and said "oooo, look mom. I ate carrots!"Reese has been wanting her ears pierced. She spent that night at Ambers house and asked her if she could do it. Amber told her that it would hurt and after she did one ear she would have to do the second ear. She said "how bout you do the second ear first"We been telling the kids that Norah can't have anything to eat because she is to little. Dallas walks in the hospital and get up to look at Norah and says: "I want to see if she has a mouth"In the morning when the kids wake up they come and crawl in bed with us. I was laying on my side talking with Reese. She looked at me and said "Mom...your boobs are hugging" I just laughed. She then said "they love each other" The thoughts of a 5 ....and just in case you were wondering. I was wearing a tank top ;)Mom....when I am a mom I will have two kids and then we will have lots of kids at our house!!(And what do we have now...I am thinking)Dallas looked at my blog and the picture of the "barefoot and pregnant""mommy that's you!"Boy do I love that kid ;)My room is usually a mess. Of course I have all the "good" excuses as to why :) Well my surprise when I got home from work was a nice clean room with a made bed.When Reese came and got me this morning she said "Mom your room is Amazing!"

the things they say...

Reese: Hey mom look! She walks just fine and doesn't even need a cane! (we were at costco and she said this about an elderly lady...nice!)
