This is crazy
I am so disgusted by a
this. What is the world coming to? This child is in second grade. I would love to hear your opinions and find out what you would do if this happened to your child. This zero tolerance crap is unbelievable. The kids that are innocent get treated like this and the ones that are really doing something wrong slide right by.

Downcast Oh My SOul
What a week thus far. I was struck down with the dreaded Strep Throat for a few days and the house went into shambles. Mommies just can't afford to get sick. If that wasn't enough to make me cry my husband got stuck at work ate two nights and the kids were less than respectful in their behavior. Might as well kick me when I am down. YES this is a whiny post and yes I am seeking attention. I wish my mom was here. There is something about moms making everything ok. I just need a hug.
I have a lot to do and hopefully hubby can help me to get the house back together and get the kids back in their place. I hate spring. It wrecks havoc on their moods and behavior. I want to get everything down so we can actually enjoy some outdoors time this weekend. We went to the park last weekend and they had a blast. We need to get their new bikes out and let them skin those knees already.

Rey Rey
Reynaldo loves Music. Jim gave him his old Rio to use and we have some good music on there for him. I think it has really helped him lately just coping with life and his moods. I just had to share this cute picture of him. He is taking a hip hop dance class and I can't wait to see the show. He will not show me any of the moves yet.

Before the birds chirp
I have been up since 4 am. For some reason I couldn't sleep anymore. I prayed aimlessly for anything that came to my mind. God has woken me up before to pray and I usually will have a person laid on my heart but not today. Instead of going back to sleep I got up then and answered some emails and sorted laundry and cleaned up the house. Fran and Seth are stopping by this evening to see the kids before they move to the opposite coast. Dominic is really sad about it. He was ok until he heard how far they are going to live. We have been blessed with an Awesome Godmother for Dominic and Godfather for Kiarrah.Fran is Dominics Godmother and Seth is Kiarrahs Godfather. They love all of the kids immensely and have played such an active roll in there life. Most importantly I know that they are praying for the kids and model their lives to be a good influence on them.
I have a lot to do today so I am going to sign off for now.

Gracie in her own time
I am totally amazed at how much my baby girl is now doing. It is almost like it just happened over night or as soon as she turned 8 months. She starting rolling over on March 21st. I had not seen it so told my dad that he must be lying. She actually did it for Pop pop several times while we were in Indiana. I finally saw it on last Friday morning. She is actually doing really well on sitting up. She can balance herself for quite awhile. She is also managed to roll around on the floor trying to get to her goal. Usually it is a toy of her sisters or to newspapers. What is it about babies and paper? Her two bottom teeth are almost all the way in. We have had a cranky few days. She loves to eat and is finally putting on some weight. She loves to watch her brothers and sister. They can make her belly laugh by doing the simplest things. She is really enjoying her time with Sophia. They make eye contact more often and will smile at each other. I am especially amused when they roll into each other. They both have this look on their face like " Hey how did you get here". They are going to grow up to be the best of friends. I am going to ask her mommy if I can share a picture on here of the two of them. They are so cute together.
The boys are taking their Terra Nova testing this week. Dominic was very excited about it and Reynaldo flat out responded with " I hate test". Sorry little buddy but this has only just begun.
KiKi wishes that she could take tests. I am still praying about what to do with her for next school year. I want to do what is best for her. That reminds me that I need to contact the child study team and speak to them.
Jim and I went out last night for a rare date. We were only out for two hours but man did it feel like heaven. We went to Wallie World and gazed into each others eyes as we walked through the health and Beauty department. LOL It doesn't matter what we do, we always managed to have fun. He was in rare form with his Johnny Bravo impersonations. We went and grabbed a bite to eat afterwards.
I must get back to work and get some things accomplished. Just thought I would throw an update out there for those of you sharing in my life, spying on my life and just plain living vicariously through me. Speaking of spying on me I am quite curious to why some of you wont just come out and say hi. I do not bite and would love to know who is reading my blog. I do know who some of you are thanks to site meter. I know that Elizabeth is checking it out and then I have some peeps from high school who are logging on. Just drop me a line. Lets catch up
