Things I have been thinking about today.

Sorry to dissapoint you that are looking for a deep entry. This truly is what I have been thinking about today at one point or another. What exactly is grace and is Gods enough for me, as the song says? How does one spell hoo ya? You know in the movie scent of a women....hoo ya is that right? Who will be the first to offer John Edwards a cabinet seat/ attorney general/vice president position Clinton/Obama. Why do you have to write a note to the school when your kid is out sick after you already called? Will my Mom and Dad ever be in the same room/location at one time again? How can you be married to someone for 35 years and see eachother every day and then not see each other at all? When did they stop loving eachother? Should I call people to encourage them to vote for my candidate of choice for the election Tuesday? When should we begin work on Robs science project that is due in three weeks? Is the world truly ready for a black president? And as a side note as a Mom of two African American little boys I hope the answer to at least that question is yes.

Watch out Olympics here we come

Its cold outside, the month is dragging on, its Monday....what is one to do well if you are in this family...you learn the hip new sport taking all houses by a storm...CARPET BOWLING. Yes folks it is a game in which the parent needs no skill and usually wins. Ok in my case my kids are four and five but they have to learn to loose sometime right? And as you can see by the pictures I have great form...( I am team Nemo that explains the hat on my head) anyway the kids loved it heck I loved it to.

Proof that I am a MOM....

We play a game at dinner where I write a sentence on the aquadoodle mat ( http://www.aquadoodletoys.com/) and Rob tries to read it before it dissapears. Tonight he wrote his first sentence....for me to guess. That kid makes me laugh. The next picture is his first book report. I know I am a dork. I dont care. Its cute to me. And as a side note he has no artistic ability whatsoever again me.......

Learn my fate in 2008...

Ok there it is there is my motto.. My wise old friend once told me to make a motto to live by every year...So here is mine for the year. In this next year I will have a new job, and this whole thing will all be over.. FOR GOOD.. Here's to a good year.
