It's impossible....

to work at home with a 2 year old running around - Logan is so curious and wants to know and touch everything - too funny. I have to work cafeteria today for Brayden's school and work just told me to work from home because they would be leaving early today anyway. So I am trying but it is impossible. Brayden my picky, picky eater asked me this morning if when he gets his grilled cheese today that since I'll be there in line if I could cut his crust off - I know crazy right.

It is amazing how he eats nothing and Logan isn't afraid to taste anything - I know they say taste buds change as you grow older I sure hope Brayden's does if not his wife will have to be cooking him chicken nuggets and grilled cheese all of the time :)

Big long weekend ahead for many of us - the pools are opening, the grills will be firing up, much needed beverages will be consumed and much family time will be spent together. I know mom is having a cook out on Sunday and I will be busy the rest of the weekend hanging out with my two favorite men in my life. (Not you Sean and Jeremy :) ).........

I have been reflecting a lot lately on the past year and what is has brought us and what has changed. Some changes I have hated, but there is nothing I can do about it, it was completely out of my hands. It is what it is right, whether we understand it or not, sometimes God is making the choices for us when we aren't ready and sometimes others make the choices that we just don't get.

This weekend was the weekend that dad started his journey home. I remember sitting in the hospital after getting the news and it was just him and I and he asked if I was okay and I said no, I hated it, and I didn't want him to go anywhere - that we needed him and it was all so unfair. He had his arms around me and said " It is going to be okay - I am ready and I am not scared" Now I know he could have just been saying that to make me feel better because even the strongest of people can be scared a little bit about dying and what was to come ahead. But that day as we all trickled into the house crying and weeping and hugging dad he kept saying get it out now and then let's enjoy the rest of our time together.

Not sure why I am on this tangent just many thoughts in my head right now and my heart is a bit heavy this morning with thoughts of this last year - but I know he will be with us this weekend as he always is.

I hope everyone enjoys their long weekend - hopefully many of you don't have to work and you are able to enjoy your time with family and friends. If you are heading outside make sure to wear sunscreen - starting to hear of a lot of skin cancer lately and everyone needs to be safe. You don't need a tan to be beautiful - you already are :)

Hugs and kisses to everyone and enjoy your time with your family and friends. Be safe and be careful.

Miss and love you dad,

Much love to all
