I'm back! We kind of went into hiding.
But it turns out we aren't so good at that game. And I really missed blogging!
I have a lot to catch you all up on. Little Harper came for a visit! It was so much fun.
Izzy had her first dance performance of the year. She rocked it. She knew it. A four year old who is a tad stuck on herself gets old. Real fast.
But the fun we had hanging out with Heidi and Harper. It was a really awesome time.
Cam Cam even sat through Gnomeo and Juliet with us. The above picture cracks me up.
You probably wonder why this story is so disjointed. Stupid blogger won't let me rearrange my pictures. Try to keep up. When it starts giving you a headache, take a break and come back. My feelings won't be hurt.
Izzy performed Yankee Doodle Dandy at her school. It was a crack up.
Cambri loved baby Harper. This kid really needs a little brother or sister.
Well now I have forced you to look at all the random pictures I had on my phone. And I have a feeling of being caught up even though I left a lot out. The main thing that I have been doing is reflecting on the past year. I made it one year without my mom. It doesn't quite feel right but I did it. I still get really sad but once in a while I get this feeling of acceptance that washes over me. That makes me REALLY sad but it makes me realize that I am starting to deal with my new reality.
And it really makes me want to be a better mom.
I want to be the kind of mom to my kids that my mom was to me.
Some days its hard. Like today for instance.
I took a five minute shower.
Cam Cam took the liberty of destroying my entire fish tank. Live plants were floating around. Fish were traumatized.
But after I recovered from the shock, I kind of smiled. Just like I knew my mom would have.
