my boy
Dear Children, you have had the best time playing with your cousins. I love to see you play and be lost in your own world of childhood summer. Dear Week, we crammed some stuff in there! Two trips to Mesa for the Dentist, Oral Surgeon, Orthodontist, Optometrist. We still have $ more dentist appointments to go! We took the whole fam to the Variety Show, which I loved, I thought it was so great. We watched the 24th Pioneer Parade while I was dripping sweat. And then had the dinner which caused me to go broke. The food was pricey and on top of that I got each person their own cotton candy all because I didn't want to share mine. And then enjoyed the fireworks. Dear Kaden, my little boy. You turned 11 yrs old. The time is going by way too fast. I can't quite accept that you are growing up. For your birthday Will took you and two of your friends off roading, then we took you too eat pizza and wings and then we all went to a movie. When we got home we had a new bike waiting for you. THEN you had a family party Mesa and Grandma accidentally gave you three $5's and $1 instead of two. Lucky. I'd say you had a great birthday. Dear Mesa, I just had to make appointments for the kids on the hottest day of the year 116 degrees. It was really hot. Dear Hailey, you are lucky your day at Sun Splash was the day after the hottest day of the year. You are also lucky you have Aunties that love you and give you make overs but still make you behave. Well, maybe that makes me lucky too:) Dear B+D, I was so glad we had lunch together. I really miss you guys. Dear Shoes, I never really understand how wearing a pair of shoes to church, and not even walking hardly at all can give me a pair of serious blisters on my (ring toe?) on both feet. I was sitting most of the time! Dear Awkward, it's always cool to rush for church and so you throw on your dress but cant quite reach to zip it all the way up, thinking let me have some one do that for me, then forget. And then walk into church during the opening hymn, sit down and have the person behind you zip it up the rest of the way...I was glad I sat in the row right in front of my sister...and that I wore my hair down. Maybe I should look in the mirror before I go anywhere. Dear Family, I miss girls night out. I don't know why we call it that cause we bring the boys too. And there's nothing like staying up late and laughing at funny stuff with your Sis. Dear Car Wash, I did that just so we could have a huge dust storm along with some rain. Your Welcome. Dear Will, you worked all weekend. I hope you enjoyed the quiet house cause I missed you way too much and I'm coming home. Dear Self, I'm not ready for school to start along with the millions of activities and things that go along with it. I could use another month of summer time. I am reminded daily how blessed I am. And every day I choose to be thankful.
