I love having days where I feel so happy, looking at the "glass half full." But then those days when the glass looks half empty come...but I think the Lord these days come & go. If each day was all chipper then we wouldn't know what truly "blessed' means.

Lapbooks

I posted some lapbook videos done by my daughter Destiney in 2010 when she was 10. Take a look, shes so cute! We need to do more of these lapbooks, the kids always enjoy them & learn too!

mommy time?

 
      So what happens at a house with 8 children when mom gives herself a pedicure? Well the picture explains it all! The truth is I don't get time alone, so I have to do what I can :)  My 4 youngest were so amazed as I soaked my feet. They loved smelling the tub of hot water, it smelled like mint. Some day when all of my children are grown I'm sure I will be pampering myself in the quiet & wish they were at my feet again! So instead of getting angry I thought I would take a picture & enjoy!

Finally Back!

It has been awhile since I have posted! Guess I have been busy with my family of 10! :) Our children continue to grow up so quickly! Since the last post (many months ago) I have started driving a school bus on top of being mom to 8 & homeschooling. It has been a change for all of us but its working out well. Destiney is 13 & great with the kids so she sits in the afternoon for 2 1/2 hours. We pay her so that makes her a happy girl! I'm just forever THANKFUL for my blessings, God has blessed John & I more then we deserve!
