Spring Break Thursday and Happy St. Patrick's Day






Spring Break is almost over and I have to admit I am a little sad. I do not feel like we have done anything really. I wanted to go somewhere so bad, and so did the boys. Next year I will have to plan better and try to save so we can make a trip, even if it is a short one.



Today was also St. Patrick's Day. I love this holiday and I think it is because it is all fun. Unfortunately there was no green beer for me. I thought about adding some food coloring to my wine, but decided against it since it was just me and the boys. Brandon got home not that long ago from his long day at work.



The boys and I dressed in our green, I had to shield us from the pinching leprechauns! We had a fun day. Danny got some new shorts. He had none. Well, one pair that I bought him before a birthday party a few weekends ago, but that was it. The downside to cleaning out the closets. I also took the boys to CVS, they have been begging to go. Danny got a telescope, if he is still into it we have a nicer one that we got a few years ago put up for him. It might workout for Christmas this year. John Michael got Play-Doh and a zhu-zhu puppy. Boys will be boys. They had a blast playing. I felt like they needed a special surprise.



I did manage to lay out for about thirty minutes. Not long but definitely some much needed Vitamin D. I so love the sun. I am hoping to get at least an hour in tomorrow, but we shall see. I also finished editing one set of the three I have to do. While I was laying out I started to read Charlie St. Cloud. I have wanted to see the movie for a while, but had to read the book first. Well, I have read it all, could not put it down. All I know is I need a new box of tissues before I get the movie, I used the one I had with the book.



After playing with the new goodies it was baseball time! Seems like that is going to be a major part of my life through at least May. Again it is a good thing I love it! John Michael had another night of watching his brother, he doesn't have practice until Saturday morning. He brought a few things to play with and was great.



We came home to look at the moon for a little while with the new telescope then showers and bed time. Now it is almost midnight and I am headed to bed! Before I go to bed I will be praying for all of my friends and family. I am also saying a special prayer tonight for several people. One is baby Jemma who is continuing to improve every day. The second is for my friend Terri. So many things happen and while they might seem small they can also seem like mountains that we must climb. Know that all mountains can be climbed, but do not ever go alone. Arm yourself with God, and with the support of family and friends. I love you all! Thank you for always making my mountains seem smaller.
