It was a good but fast weekend. Heidi wasn't feeling well so she called in sick on Saturday. It was nice having her around...wish she was feeling better, but good to have her here, nonetheless.
Had a nice visit with Kat and Dave. I couldn't help think thing like, "once we are in the new house, these visits will be even nicer." We bought a house so that we could have family and friends in from out of town...compared with what we have, it's going to be great!
I'm at home with the kids today. Heidi's at Roswell, helping people who are living with cancer. She's a hero to so many...I couldn't be more proud of her.
Libby's fighting her morning nap. Izak's playing nicely with his magnet book. What great kids I have.
Izak is passionate about balloons these days. Yesterday was a big standoff at Ainsley's 2nd birthday party. He thought it was his job to herd all the balloons...and he didnt' take too kindly to strays! When it was time to leave, I only let him take one balloon, even though the whole bunch was offered. In my opinion, he doesn't need to hog them all. So we took only one...with much wailing and nashing of teeth. But by the time we got home, he was excited about his one balloon.
The shaping of a child's heart is a challenging thing. They don't just learn sharing and kindness on their own...they need to be taught it. I don't want to be harsh on him...he's a tender soul. But I also want him to learn to share and play nice with other kids...even when he gets locked onto an idea like herding balloons. He's a good boy and I love him like crazy!!
When Heidi gets home, we'll probably decorate the Christmas tree. We got a short little thing this past weekend -- it sits on top of the coffee table...funny!
Off and running,
