this and that

I've tried writing a post for today a few times. It's not working out for me. I don't mean to complain, I don't. And it always comes out that I'm having the worst day ever when it's not so bad.

Let's just say it's Monday. The boys are asleep for now so I'm enjoying the quiet.

I got an email from one of our church friends, saying how he and his wife are going to miss us when we move. It about made me cry. It's people that I hate saying good-bye to. Even if I don't hang out with them all the time, but when they've impacted my life like these friends have. My heart hurts to lose friends like that (and I know we can keep in touch but it's different when you live further away, I've learned this).

Be praying for my kids. Moose has a bad cough and a rash (that doesn't itch and you can't see but doesn't respond to Hydrocortizone/Aquaphor cream). Squirt has...the squirts (haha sorry bad joke). He doesn't seem dehydrated but I've been ordered to give him half and half (formula and Pedialyte not creamer) for a day and take him off his solids for now. I don't think he'll mind me not shoving food he dislikes in his face.

Anyway, that's my random post for the day. :D Sorry, life is a bit crazy on this end of the internet.

I hope your boys feel better soon. I know how sick kids can really stress a mom out.

I am know your move is going to be hard. Leaving friends behind is probably one of the most difficult things to do. I will keep your in my thoughts.

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read...

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp...
