I am in a GOOD mood....

There are blue skys, at least a sliver or so, Scott and Jenee will be here today, it is relatively warm outside (reminding me of spring) and Jason Mraz was playing when I got in the car this morning.


No matter that my kids were 10 minutes late to school or that we had to sit in the car for ten minutes waiting for the window to defrost.
Or that the string cheese I"m eating has a funny taste to it. 

Today is a great day.


**************************

Last night, Trevor and I  watched "Dan In Real Life", one of our favorites. Then, more than ever, were we reminded of our girls while watching it. 
Emily=Jane
Annabelle=Kara. 
If you don't know what I'm talking about, you'll just have to watch the movie. 
(this is the picture taken right after decorating the tree, back when it was green) 
(yes, we have tinsel  on our tree)


"This corn is an angel" 
"I don't want to go with the pig face!"
"You are a MURDERER of LOVE!"

I think the talent show is my favorite part. 

If you haven't seen the movie, you're probably confused by now. Just watch it. It's really good. 
And if I could have their green floor, I would be a happy lady. Actually, if I could just live in that house, I don't care that it's a cabin, I'd be happy.

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...
