Friday Letters

Dear Children, you are good kids. Dear Friday, I was up for two hours before I realized it was Friday. Dear Dr. Visit, I took all four of you for a well check at the same time, luckily we have been with Dr. L since Hailey was 1yr old and she knows us well. Poor Hailey got two shots. I love that she took time to talk to my kids about choosing good friends. Dear Cami, I wish you were my personal adviser on how to raise my kids. You have helped us so much. Dear 4th of July, you were good. It was nice to wake up to rain. Looking forward to getting to celebrate you twice. Dear Backyard Roast, the kids kept roasting me marshmallows. A couple is plenty and the kids kept saying but I made this one just for you. They are kind of like donuts, one a year is good. It was 100 and something out and Aunt Ranell made a fire and Hazel is wearing super hot jammies and I got eaten by mosquitoes. I feel pretty confident we were the only ones in Mesa roasting marshmallows. Dear Thatcher, I took the kids and they were great even spending six hours in the car. It helped they got to play with their friends and go swimming while we were there. Hopefully they still love it as much when we move into the bug house.  Dear Sleep, every time I lay down I feel like I can't breath and am up half the night sounding like I am fake coughing. The Dr. gave me five days of Prednisone, but I am afraid to take it. I would like to sleep for a week straight, nothing new. Dear Computer, I would like to know why I can't get the text to be black? I want it to be black. Dear Life, you are always full of surprises. And you are never boring. Dear Self, I am doing the best I can even though some days that feels like not nearly enough. Facing your fears isn't as rewarding as every one says.
