I will take one of these for Christmas please
Dear Children, I love the days when you are all playing so sweetly together. We need more of those. Although today I noticed we have new neighbors and they have two kids. You are beyond happy about that. Dear Week, I don't even know how we got to Friday. Really...it's all a blur. I don't think I even wore makeup this week. That's bad. Dear Dr., another quick trip to Mesa to see the Dr. Quick meaning 6 hours of driving, but hey I met up at Cafe Rio for a quick dinner with my Ma and Sis so it went ok. Driving home with a huge headache and a mountain of stress on my shoulders, not so fun. Also having to pull over in the pitch dark to pee on the side of the road all by yourself in the middle of nowhere is kind of creepy. Dear Cold, brrr it has turned chilly here. Especially in the morning. The older kids wanting me to drive them to school...across the street...really. The little girls don't even complain, even when I say goodbye at the door and watch them walk from the window because I'm freezing. Dear Christmas, I'm running behind. Let me catch up so I can enjoy the Christmas holiday. I haven't even decorated yet! Dear Will, we stay up too late. But I love talking with you. I'm really looking forward to our date on Sat. night. Free Steak is always good. Dear Self, having patience when you feel sick is really hard. Being limited when you have a long list of things to get done is irritating and discouraging. Having to make permanent decisions...I hate that. There are too many at the moment. I am grateful for every moment of peace I get.
