So who doesn't love chocolate? There is a new exhibit at the Museum of the Rockies all about chocolate and how it's made. It just makes me hungry thinking about it. Kandie has to have some fun while Myra is in school, right? But then I get the other side of how Myra wants to come too. It can be hard. But most days Kandie and I keep secrets of all the fun things we do, because we both know it will upset Myra. I don't know it how it will work out when Velma starts talking...but I still have some time to think through that.
We also LOVE to go to Myra's little kindergarten event. She has art gallery's , concerts, and I also get to volunteer and help whenever I want. Our soon to happen adventure will be to go to a one of her classmates farm. We were supposed to go a while back, but it was raining so they cancelled it. Hopefully though we will get to go on Thursday :) I'll come and take lots of pics, with of course Kandie, and Velma. Can't leave those two behind. So fun to watch her progress in school and see her read as well. It just shocks me how much Myra has learned this school year. She went from only writing her name and of course all of our names, to reading in a couple months!!! Pretty amazing stuff. It feels like it hasn't been easy getting her to do these things , but I just have to remember to take a step back and look at how much she has progressed.
Velma is a handful sometimes. ok most of the time :) She has a very interesting personality, wants her own way, gets her own way and cries even when she gets her own way. I read somewhere that if you have a tough baby then they are a good toddler...if that is true please become a toddler soon. She wants to grow up fast, doesn't care for crawling much, but she'll do it if she has to. She mainly gets around by walking! Never in my life did I expect a 9 month old to walk.
Being a mom with three kids isn't as bad as everyone keeps telling me. Its just a way of life and you get used to it and don't think much of it until people ask how I do it. At Myra's school, a couple of the moms complain about having to take their kids shopping and that they can get shopping done in 20 minutes without them...I don't know if I'm really good at shopping or if I am better at life ;)--haha but I can shop with 3 kids and be out of there in 20 tops. But then I look back and see that you just adapt to what you have, whether it be 1 kid, 3 or even 6 kids, you adapt and become pro at your circumstances. Also everyone is good at different things. I can't sew very well... I still do it but I'm not a pro. I've seen mothers of 5 make beautiful quilts, dresses and stuffed animals. And it makes me think holy cow I suck. But then I have to take a step back and see how far I've come and the things I can do.
I guess what I am trying to say is be happy with who you are, what you have, and the things you can do.
