Something I crave a lot....

Does it have to be food? Cause the only thing that qualifies as food that I ever crave is Diet Dr. Pepper. And I think you all know about that.
But I do crave a really clean house.
Oh, I get a clean house every morning when I do my morning rounds, picking things up, making beds, doing laundry, vacumming, dishes (this all after i have gone to bed the night before with a clean house). And I even get a really clean house the one time a week when sheets are washed, bathrooms scrubbed, floors also scrubbed and everything dusted.
But I want my really clean house to last ALL day long and maybe into the next day also.
Ten minutes after I have cleaned the bathroom, a little three year old decides to use the toilet and it's all over after that.
the little three year old I'm talking about...

I am with you on the clean house thing. I usually scrub my house at night after the kids are in bed so it at least stays clean for 8 hours until they wake up in the morning!

I know how you feel. I swear my kids follow me around and recreate the same messes I JUST cleaned up.

Especially little boys at the potty. I think Brian pretends the bathroom's on fire.

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
