80’s Day

September 15, 2009

 Today was 80’s day at the elementary school. Emma wore her old 70’s outfit (it’s all the same to them) and I assembled an outfit for Cara. Cara wasn’t pleased at first. I said “I was in school in the 80’s” and her eyes got really big and she said “you were ALIVE in the 80’s”…….100_3120

Designing Child

December 7, 2008

000_26381When Emma was a baby, she would sit and stare into her closet at her clothing and smile……over and over and over. Now, she is designing !!

 Emma and Cara were watching Ice Princess and Emma decided to take 2 of my old shirts and make Ice Skating outfits for them. She did a really good job!

uninspiredness

February 27, 2008

 I am having a very uninspired week….which is okay I know, I just don’t like it a lot.  It will pass.

  Here is our day so far, snow day so the kids are out of school.  They have been outside and inside and outside and inside.

 The police just left our house because Ellie decided to see what would happen if she dialed 911 and hung up.  Now she knows. He was a very nice policeman and he scared her to death so there is no more punishment needed.

 Never a dull moment here. Maybe that is it. I haven’t had time to be inspired. ;)

 Anyone, have any funny stories for today???? I love to laugh!!

Congrats Ellie

February 16, 2008

Well, little Ellie’s contest was last night. She did great!! I am so amazed at her ability to get up and dance and sing without being nervous. Kyle and I were both very nervous but not Ellie. She just loves to sing.

 She sang “the other side of me” by Hannah Montana. She loves Miley and the crowd seemed to know the song too.

 She won best soloist and best dressed. Ellie was very happy over both trophys.

 Congratulations Ellie!!!!!

 I love you and I am very proud of you!!!

Ellie part 2

January 29, 2008

Ellie made it!! She is now in the show. She did great!! I am happy for her. It is so important to me that Ellie have self confidence and that no matter what she TRY!!! Winning and losing aren’t the issue. The issue is trying!!

 Hey, if you like blogs….. Check my blogroll. There are some talented ladies writing blogs now!!

 Thanks to all friends for their prayers.

the singer, the athlete and the comedian

January 26, 2008

  I have been watching my children lately. They are all so different.  They have very diverse peronalities.

 Ellie loves to sing. She will sing from the other room when people visit so they can hear her but she won’t be embarrassed. She has a pretty voice and wants to be just like Miley Cyrus.

 Emma is very sporty. She is into tennis and soccer. She rushes into sports “head on” and just keeps going.

 Cara is the comedian. She is naturally funny. She is very happy and that makes her even more funny.  My mother told me yesterday “Cara is just crazy”. That is true.

 I am glad God made them all different.  I want to encourage them to have individual dreams.  They are learning to encourage each other too.

 Isn’t it wonderful how we are all different?

favorite memory

January 22, 2008

100_39183.jpg100_39183.jpg I thought this was a cute idea on my sister’s blog so I put it on mine.

 I have a lot of favorite memories from my childhood.

 I remember my mother taking me fishing with a bamboo fishing pole. Me, being impulsive as usual, threw the whole pole in the water.

 I remember playing Avon lady with my Mamaw. She was lots of fun.

 One of my other favorite memories was getting locked inside Sears with my daddy. We couldn’t find a door to get out. We were laughing.

 I asked Cara what is her favorite memory so far and she said- making cup cakes with Jo, cuddling with mama, and playing with Ellie and Emma.  Since she is only 4, I know those will change.

 What is a favorite childhood memory you have??? Come on and speak!!! It helps me to be a better parent when I listen to what people remember.

 Happy Day!
