Friday Letters
Dear Children, you survived your week of testing at school. Dear Church, we were late. I didn't know if one of the kids was going to make it through or if I would be sorry. I only got to actually sit and listen in RS. But I am so grateful, I was supposed to be there to hear what was said...it was for me. I needed it to make it through this week. Dear I Should Have Stayed Home, backing into a guy in the parking lot. In my own defense he said "yeah I saw you but I tried to just swerve around you". Nice. Dear Awkward, being charged double to have a sweet girl try and give a pedicure with two inch hello kitty nails with buttons glued to them. Cold water, my feet being poked and the nail polish smearing off a couple of hours later. She said her nails got caught in her hair that morning. I should have stayed home all week. Dear B, thanks for hanging out with me. It was much needed friend time. Why do we not do that more often when we are right around the corner? Dear Kade, some days life is hard and you just have to sit down and cry and some days life is good. We have had both this week. Your lucky day was when the land lord paid you $10 to sweep off the driveway. We do have a really big driveway but still, Jackpot. Dear House, I need a maid and a babysitter so I can unpack. That would be so nice. Dear Bugs, it must be spring. This house is full of spiders and scorpions! I am not friends with either. Dear Hailey, I need a handbook for you. I love you. That is all. Dear Driving, you make me so tired, still. 7hrs in the car. Not fun. Getting my little man to the Dr. every week is worth it. Dear Sherrie, we finally got to look at our wedding pictures for the second time! Thank You again! Dear Will, you bring me flowers and do the dishes and help with everything in so many ways and I dent up the car/beast. I'm lucky you love me anyways. Dear Self, I hate when my limits get in the way. It makes me want to push harder and farther. I hate it when what you have is not enough. I love that with the Lord all things are possible.
