AHHH life

Here we go, life is such an adventure! Miah goes to the back specialist today @ 2pm, we are hoping that the DR can figure out a reason for the pain he has been having. The pain meds are not working and he is in pain. I hate to see him in pain and hope that the DR can get some test ordered to see what the issue is! Hoping it is "fixable" and that Miah does not have to miss any work and does not have to have surgery, OH PLEASE NO SURGERY!!!!! Please pray for the Lord's wisdom to be upon the DR today and in the future.
I on the other hand have also been in pain. On Friday afternoon Kailyn was being pushed on out lil John Deere Tractor in the yard. I must have gotten in the way because my left foot was run over. OUCH, 52 lbs and my foot are not a good combo! It is throbbing and I am considering getting an x ray to be sure nothing is broken!!!! LOL Funny thing is that it does not hurt all that bad to walk on it! Hmmmmmm.
The girls are loving camp and are on day #2. I am glad that they are having fun and thankful for the Wilton Rec scholarships, because without that they could not go!
Chris is enjoying having friends to play with while his sisters are gone.
On to a new note, the kids had been wanting a street hockey set and so we headed off to Dick's sporting goods and picked up 4 sticks and 2 balls, They love it! We have been out there each day practicing. We are officially "TEAM CURRY". I love that they all love it! A and C are great at it and K is working on her coordination!
AH that is all for now.

First day down......

Well today I had 6 kids. Tomorrow I will have 8. I was determined to get out of the house today and so I did. We went first to the park, Gavin Park, the park I love! Then it got HOT and so we came home and quickly ( as quickly as 1 mom and 6 kids can) changed into swim suit and went to the sprinkler park, another place I love. My friend Amanda met me there with her 3 kids and we had a blast......The kids enjoyed getting wet an cooling off and Amanda and I enjoyed so MUCH INTERRUPTED conversation. LOL
Tomorrow will be the one and only day this summer that I will have 8 kids and I am glad for that. It makes for a long day for me!!!! We will be spending alot of time outside! LOL Hope the weather holds for me and that it is not too HOT!!!!!!
I do love what I do, watching other kids I mean. But it is wearing at times and I get a bit stressed, but I remind myself that I am here for my kids and they NEVER have to attend daycare, or after school care bc I am here. Also I am here when they are sick and so on and so forth. I love the kids I watch and enjoy seeing them grow. But like others I am glad when the work day is done.
I try to be loving and patient and kind, But I am human and I am not always. But I do try!
So if you think of me tomorrow pray that my day is nice and smooth!!!!
On another note, I am thankful that my mom is coming to watch my kiddos tonight so I can go to the grocery store, and Miah can meet me out after work.
On to the evening!!!!!

Summer vacation is here!

Well today was the last day of school for my girls. I cannot believe that I am officially a mother of a 4th grader and 2nd grader! WOW. I am scared and excited all at the same time. I am scared that I will not "produce" good girls and excited that they they are healthy and smart girls. But God gave me 2 wonderful little ladies and that must mean HE trusts me with them. I am sure I will teach then from my past, present and future mistakes. I think that God directed my life that way HE did so that I could share with my girls the things I learned, and one of those was that my mom was right. UGH I hate to admit that. LOL UGH and that my aunt and uncle were ALWAYS right when they told me that I did not need a boyfriend, that is prob the first thing I am going to teach them. Boys are only trouble and stick with the best group of girls there is!!! LOL Anyhow enough of that!
Summer is here and the girls are off to day camp beginning on Monday. They will go each day 9-3. I will miss them but they will have fun and keep busy. I will be busy here with 3-5 kids each day. Monday and Fridays will be the busiest for me but Tuesday, Wed and Thursday will be light days.....Those will be the days that I will be doing "outings" as I like to call them! We should have fun.
I love my kids and hate to see them grow but love that they are growing all at the same time.
I sat here on the porch moments ago and said a short prayer for the girls and their teachers for next year. I thanked the Lord for the teachers that HE gave them and asked Him to prepare them all fro each other next year. I can't wait to sit and write my letter to the teachers and introduce us to them. Both teachers are ones I have heard nothing about, which can be good so I have a fresh slate to begin on! The girls did great on their report cards and I am proud of the progress that they both made. ALL the teachers left great comments in their little boxes and thanked that girls for such a wonderful year! That makes me proud that my girls can behave! They might be monsters 90% of the time fro me, but they can behave and do when away from me. I suppose that is the way it should be! So proud of my ladies.
On another note, I do not know where Chris will be going to school in the fall. I have him signed up for 2 places! UPK @ they YMCA, which is a preK program through the school and we have to wait upon the NYS budget to see if there will be a class and then if he gets in, it is all done by lottery! UGH, then I have him signed up for Head start, but because we are over income, he is on a wait list and the woman informed me that he is "quite a ways down" on the list. If you know me I am a planner and I hate not knowing BUT I do know that it is is Gods hands and HE knows. Chris misses the deadline for Kindergarten by 12 days and I am happy for that bc he is surely not ready for K. I am praying that he gets into teh UPK class, it is 5 days a week 1/2 days and I do love the program! A went through it 3 years ago and she did so well. Any-WHO we shall see.
Ugh cooking dinner so I should jet! Hugs to all.

1st day!

Here we go, I have wanted to start a blog for our family for a long time but did not find the time....till today. I hope that I can think of something fun and interesting to put on here but if I don't, then I will try harder next time!
I have had a long day following a longer week. Everything is running through my mind, including that the kids are going to be out of school tomorrow!!! Wow another school year ending, this was the shortest by far! At least that is how is seems to me, it feels like the year was a blur. The girls did awesome in school and Chris has his first year of Pre-K behind him. I cannot believe that my baby is going to be 5 this December, and that my oldest K is going to be 10, DOUBLE DIGITS here we come. I hope I am ready and prepared. I guess I should not forget A, wow she is 7 holy cow. WHO GAVE THE KIDS PERMISSION TO GROW OLDER???????

LOL well that is all I have for now......More to come sometime ;)
