Today is another lovely day. The sun is out, and so is my laundry (out on the line). I love the warm weather, it makes me want to conquer the world. I just finished a cup of coffee, and am proud to say I have cut the amount of sugar I use, to 1/2. I am on a long voyage to lose 20 pounds, but there are alot of foods I cannot take out of my diet without harming my baby, since I am nursing. That leaves me to cut out sugar. I don't really have a sweet tooth (I am naturally sweet, lol). My only downfall is coffee, darn coffee. I need it to wake up because I get little sleep at night. I am hoping that we will hit up the football field and run (or walk cause I GUARANTEE you I'm outta shape). I have a busy day ahead of me. I gotta go grocery shopping, iron, get my orders delivered, check on my parents, and yadda yadda yadda. The list goes on and on. But I am telling you all, the Lord will get me through it, that is why the sun is shining. Yesterday, was funny because it was sunny also. Well Vanessa is used to the gloom of winter and we were on our way to pick up my son from school. I put her in her carseat and she starts screaming "mommy turn out the light, turn out the light." I am trying to figure out what she is upset about, and I explain to her that the overhead light will go out once I close the car door. Well she points and says the light is hurting her eyes. So, HELLO!!! The sun!!! I told her I could not turn out that light, only God had that power. Fun Stuff, being a mom. I have so many laughs. Vanessa is my funny one. But OT, my son, was about 3 when we moved to New Mexico. Well we were traveling by car, and we had the Army pack all our stuff, except the valuables of course. With us, was our dog, my jewelry, our firearms, and things of sentimental value. My dad is very talented, and he carves alot. I have alot of things he has made for me, and among them, is a crucifix of Jesus Christ. Well I packed that in the vehicle to be sure the packers would not break it. It was high on top of luggage etc., and my darling hubby was tired from being up all night and something happened where he had to slam the brakes. The crucifix slid down to just above my sons carseat (we had a jeep, so there is no trunk).He starts crying when he wakes up, saying "mommy Jesus is poking me" anyway, just thought I'd share how funny kids can be. It was too cute.
