I know I have not been blogging as much. I feel it in my bones, a deep desire to keep up on things and yet events are slipping by. Five minutes, five minutes is not too much to ask in a day. So here is my five minutes. On Friday Mike came home from work early, we played hooky from house cleaning and went out as a family. We drove over to Laguna Seca and watched some cars race on the track. Mike was totally excited, it was fun to share in his enthusiasm. I am so happy we finally went. As we were touring the area we saw our first mountain lion. It was strolling through a meadow about a football field away. Wow, they are here and really do exist. There is a reason there are warning signs posted everywhere.
Next, Jane went to the temple on Saturday morning to do baptisms for the dead. She was so excited. It was her first time and she really loved it. Unfortunately just as she made it home she became terribly ill. She had a fever all weekend and clear until Tuesday morning. The kid was miserable.
This brings me to my final note- I LOVE MY HUSBAND! I am so grateful that he is home. He nursed our little daughter, he was up with her throughout the night, he waited on her hand and foot. Also, on Monday, after we had both been up much of the night with Jane he slept in while I got up and got Ellyn and Sadie out the door for school and then he put me to bed and let me nap for three hours while he took care of Sawyer and Jane and cleaned the kitchen.
I finally am starting to feel like a human again. I feel so much more even, so much less stressed and overworked. I can collapse into bed at night and happily stay awake with my hubby watching some t.v. or listening to music, or- whatever and not just fall dead asleep. It is wonderful and each day I marvel at how blessed I am to have him in my life. We have such a wonderful family and I love them all to death.
K- that was 10 but that was several days worth.
