Happy Father's Day!

Since today is Father's Day, I thought I'd make a list of things I love about my Dad..
1. He is always supportive of me
2. He loves me unconditionally
3. He has been a great Father and even better Grandfather
4. He loves to do silly things
5. His hugs can fix just about anything!

I can't forget the other "father" in my life, my husband/father of my children...
1. He loves us and works so hard to provide for us
2. He loves to spend time with us
3. He loves to have snuggle or tickle time with the kids daily
4. He is my best friend
5. He is a great father

Happy Father's Day to all the other Fathers out there!

When it rains, it pours....

So this is a hard one for me...we have had a pretty crazy couple of days. Our basement flooded for the second time in 12 months. Only this time it was much worse. We had a few days of pretty consistent rain and then got a microburst storm that dumped a large amount of water very quickly. Well seeing as things hadn't been resolved from the last time, we shouldn't have been so surprised. But we were. The worst part is that this time there was quite a bit of our stuff that got pretty soaked and potentially ruined. I've been trying to look at this with some shred of positivity and decided that at least it's forcing me to declutter! Right?! Ok. It was worth a try. It's just such a helpless and frustrating feeling that you're left with as you're trying to clean up a potentially never ending mess! Oh well. It's just stuff, right? This too shall pass.

The first of many milestones!

Oh my goodness! I can't believe how behind I've gotten on my blog! Since school ended things have been consistently busy! On May 22 my baby girl graduated from Preschool! I am so proud of her and her love of learning! Her class put on a program for the parents to showcase their progress and what they'd learned. It was so cute to watch them all acting proud..they were all beaming ear to ear. Miss Dawn had them draw a picture of what their favorite part of Preschool was and then presented them each with their diplomas. Afterwords she presented the parents with a binder full of art projects and their daily journal. It was the neatest gift I could have possibly ever been given! Taylor absolutely loves art in any way, shape and form, and to get an organized binder of her creativity was priceless! Thanks Dawn for a wonderful year and being a great teacher and role model to my daughter! Danny is so excited and just can't wait for August to get here!
