well things seem to finally be normal. well today felt normal. its been an adjustment for all of us. john is a bit more clingy and will often say "no" before he does the thing that is a no but i think that's a bit to be expected at this age. he talks more now than ever. learning new words on a daily basis. yesterday was rain. love hearing his little voice. i can't believe how big he is!! no longer my baby. i do love my nights with him when he's winding down. it always fun to cuddle and read a good book. tonight we actually went and saw a family friend who just got a new little black lab. this little puppy was so cute and john wasn't sure what to make of her. I'm hoping we will get some more time to spend with her another evening.
my kids are great. they are adjusting and getting to know us as are we. its great to watch john interact with other kids. i had two new kids this week and next week i think i have another starting. should be interesting as we go. i so don't regret the decision to do this. i know its all new but i did wonder in my head if i would want the office work back. so far i don't. i love not having to worry about deadlines and if i should have done something different. its nice just to play play play and then give the kiddos back to there parents! with my other job i don't think i really shut off work till around 8. now its off at 5. yeah!!
along with all this adjustment is my wonderful husband. i know i could not do this without him. he often comes home to a house filled with toys. two pack and plays in our bedroom. a semi overwhelmed wife who looks awful. tonight when he got home it was a kiss and a certian question "how was your day?" this question is sincere by all means but i did have a good guess what it really meant "its beautiful outside i wonder if dawn wouldn't mind if i went golfing instead of hanging with them?" i of course said yes cause well to be truthful his day are numbered before the snow flies and i always feel bad when he can't go in the winter. honestly though he has been great. he worries about finances and so do i but we will have faith that the Lord will provide. we are getting closer and closer to our normal income. please pray for us as we go through this transition. besides watching the kids i'm working on getting my certification for the daycare so that requires hours of classes. so once again i feel as if i'm back to school. my nights and any spare hours are spent reading and typing in front of the computer. i've decided to try to spend Thursday nights at the library to designate more time to get the classes done and mike has ggraciously agreed I can do this. so off tomorrow night to the library i go!! yikes.
on another note my little nephew turns one soon and we are celebrating his birthday this friday night. so excited to hang with family and celebrate this wonderful little guy!! mmmmmmmmmoooooooooooo!!! john and ty's favorite noise. love papa's cows they do!! well i'm off to bed!! goodnight!!
