I have to say that I love weekends the very most. I love that I never know which of my kids will come over. The older the kids get and with them at college it seems everyone is beyond busy.
Gentry is so busy that I think she is super stressed. She works as a manager at HVAC (on BYU campus) and goes to school there full time. Did I mention she is planning a wedding too?
Ty went snowboarding the past two days. I always worry... he wears a helmet. Seth doesn't. I talked to him about it, but he doesn't feel he needs too. It's hard since I'm "not his mom" per say. I wish he would. I make Tyler... because I can and it's so important.
Taylor is doing so great. She really has had months of change. She is an inspiration. She is super busy with work, kitting hundreds of kits for me to teach, and she is facing life as a "single" young woman again. She has grown.
I love that she considers me her best friend. I love that she thinks I give her wise advice. She told me this today... it meant alot to me. This girl has changed for the better from her trials. Bitter or Better... she is striving to be so much better.
This boy is at the new school. He can't stop smiling. He drove us to dinner last night. I am a little obsessed with Cafe Rio. It is my weakness and treat for the week- Pork Barbacoa salad (no tortilla, no chips) and 600 calories. I save my calories for this. YUM!
Zach is a great driver. He thinks it's cool to drive US around. He is playing baseball- getting ready to try out for Murray High Schools baseball team. He told me last night... "I am so happy mom." Change again... it was the RIGHT decision.
Today I finally made it to the grocery store. I have been so busy. I am always busy. It is my normal. I was so happy to have a productive day. It felt good. It feels good to know my husband supports me and my growing company. I realize I have changed... I have learned in the last year that its okay to not be able do it all. I am so much kinder to myself. Today was a great day- I am not so hard on myself anymore... with age comes wisdom.
A big change... McKay decided to for the first time EVER to color her hair BROWN. She decided last week and I supported her.
I called us SALT n Pepper... ha! Such a change for her. She really did like it though.
I thought she looks amazing. Her eyes are so light blue that she looked stunning.
Taylor even came by to see her and let her use her phone charger. She is a great big sister...
*Zach towers over ALL of us girls now!
I am crafting now.. time to prepare for my TV appearance on Monday morning. I'll be on Good Things Utah TV- Channel 4 at 9:00 am.
Hope you are having a great weekend...
PS I really miss Matt and his family.
