In 2 weeks

School will be out for the year! Man has this year flown by. I am excited for the break and having the kids home, (Joseph will be gone for the first 5 weeks though) I am also hesitant to have them home too. It drives me nuts having to constantly be after them to clean up after themselves. Just makes me feel like I must be doing something wrong that they haven't gotten this concept yet. It's not like it's something I've just recently started or anything. I know it isn't my fault, God gave us all free will, it just seems like he gave my children a higher portion!Yesterday was a blur. Busy all day and our life group met last night, I fell into bed last night, and was still so tired this morning. I laid back down after I got the kids odd to school, it wasn't very restful though, because there's been a lot of noise coming from outside this week, as workers are working on cleaning up the burnt house across the street. It's taken them 3 days to clean out the backyard and now today they have a crane and are starting to attack the house. I'll be glad when the eye sore is gone. Today after school, Rachel has a counseling session, Sarah has dance and then her chorus concert. My oldest nephew has his ROTC awards ceremony tonight too. I figured out how to sort of be at both. My sister will pick Joseph and the video camera up on her way home from work. Pat has an early day today, he's off at 6:30, he'll go to Moon Valley and watch the ROTC thing too, which is closer to his work than Sarah's school and the ROTC thing starts at 7, Sarah's chorus starts at 6:45, Pat has more of a chance to get to Moon Valley on time than Sunrise. This has been a very hard decision, wanted to be at 2 places at once and not disappointing Sarah or my nephew. In theory it sounds like a pretty good plan, I just hope it all works out. On a really sweet note, this morning a friend of mine brought me a small vase of 3 roses one for each child for Mother's Day. In Mexico they celebrate Mother's Day today. What a sweet girl she is :)
