Just Kidding. It is a wonderful, blessed thing that we love our children as much as we do or else we might be inclined to drop kick them out the door some days. LOL Collin is a sweet, kind, goofy little boy who definitly holds a special place in my heart. But there come the days that I wonder what planet he came from! Today, I don't think he has said anything else to me but "NO!". He does the opposite of everything I ask, never naps, and seems to think crackers look better in crumb form all over the floor and furniture.
Of course it doesn't help that I just managed to jam my thumb on my left hand in the door jam of the bathroom door. The bottom part of my fingernail has turned a lovely shade of purple and it has throbbed for like 2 hours.
It is days like this that make me glad that I have a good sense of humor (and neighbors far enough away they don't hear my yelling, LOL).
I am just glad it is finally really fall. All the leaves are falling, and it has frosted here the last 2 nights. I LOVE the winter, and especially the holiday season. I have such wonderful, fond memories of the holidays when I was a kid, from the big family filled event packed Thanksgivings and Christmases at my grandparents house, to the small thanksgiving my mom and I had when I was a teenager and my brother was away at school and we were living in Georgia. I wanted to make the whole dinner (versus ordering out), but of course I had my mom's help. :-) It was wonderful. This time of year is very special to me, especially now that I have kids and can share it with them. The baking bug has also hit me, I can't stop myself from baking, breads, pies, cookies... Anyone need any catering? LOL.
Anyways, enough of my rambling. Maybe I will go get a shower, finally, at 5pm. :-)

Believe it or not - some day you will look back on days like today and laugh (and miss them!) Sorry about your thumb. Did the boys kiss it better?! It does help.
Love,

I often tell my children that they're lucky they're so cute, otherwise I'd give them to the wolves to raise. Now it's gotten to be a joke and Alexander will stop and start doing fake incredulous faces, "And a wolf will have to be my new Mommy?" Hahaha. I TOTALLY know how you feel. Sometimes I look at my kids and wonder SERIOUSLY what makes me love them SO DAMN MUCH when they are so difficult sometimes! I guess it's part of the survival gene! :)
