Monday

I love weekends.  I love the time I get to spend with my kids during the week, but I love weekends.  I get to spend so much time with my husband, and I love that.  My children are my life right now, but my husband is my life forever.  My children will leave and start their own families, but my husband is here for better or worse til death do us part.

I made chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes for MOPs today.  It was a potluck thing we were doing, and I made these because of a request another MOPs mom made of me.  She had them once, and really wanted me to make them again.  I really didn't want to make them yesterday, but I did.  The moms loved them.  I'm pretty sure no one will make them because they're pretty labor intensive, but we were supposed to bring the recipe, so I did.

Here's something I don't like.  Gnats.  Nope.  Don't care at all for them.  Now, in normal every day life they don't matter at all to me, but when they get in my house, I do not like them.  Not at all.

Tricia stopped by the other day.  I love when Tricia stops by.  If you read Tricia's blog, you'll read an anecdote about how I know her so well.  I'd just like to point out how nice it is to have a friend like that.  A friend that I can predict what's REALLY going to happen even when they're not even sure that's what was going to happen.  Love that.

Dusty got a clock from his grandmother's house when we were going through things, and it's a digital clock with the date that spins around and around.  Hannah read the date on the clock the day that Dusty plugged it in, and ever since then she has recited the date.  Today we were dropping off some Mary Kay at a clinic where I have some customers, and a nurse came by asking another nurse what day it was.  Hannah said, "May 16th" as she was walking.  Neither woman heard her, but I thought it was hilarious because here's this adult that actually understands the concept of dates within a month, and here's a four year old that barely can grasp what it means (although she has already remarked that tomorrow is May 17th), and she knows the date.  She's such a smartie.  Now Hannah wants to write a letter on my computer, so I will now hand it over to her. :)
