It's been kind of a crazy week around here and I am SO glad it is Friday! Dale has been gone all week on an east coast business trip and gets home today! Both Faith and Reed came down with something and they were not feeling well for a few days. Faith was running a high fever and just really tired. At one point her fever spiked to 104 and I about panicked. It broke right away as soon as I gave her Motrin.....this was the first time it ever got that high.
By yesterday everyone was feeling better so I took them to see the movie WallE. The kids liked it and I REALLY liked it. I thought it taught a good lesson and one that even adults should see.
Now we're down to 2 weeks before school starts back for Reed and Faith. They start on July 31st as it is a year round school. I am finding myself an emotional wreck because of it. I can't believe my baby is starting Kindergarten! I'm not ready for this!!!! I am so happy and excited for her, yet my heart is breaking. Maybe it's because I missed almost that first year of her life that I feel this way. I need more time with her! Or maybe it's because she is the baby and I'm not ready to have them all in school! I remember being emotional when each of the boys started Kindergarten too, but I don't remember being this bad....maybe I was?? Thank goodness Kindergarten here is only half days and she'll only be gone 3 1/2 hours. I think that's what is helping me keep my sanity:) Silly I know! What am I going to do when they start college!!:O
I'm starting up a new blog called "Journey Through Life With Faith" You can find the link here ~Journey Through Life With Faith~
It will take me some time to get started and I will eventually be making this blog private. I've been doing some thinking this week as several of my blogs that I read have had to go private due to rude comments. I've always been a little nervous about having a blog that isn't private so I am careful about what and how much I share. I would like to have a private blog where I can share a little more so "Journey Through Life With Faith" will give me a place to do this. I will continue to keep this blog open for awhile. I've really been enjoying meeting new people that I know had this been a private blog I never would have been fortunate to meet:)
Well need to go feed 3 hungry kiddos, take 2 restless dogs for a much needed walk, and clean 1 messy house!!!!! Thank goodness Daddy gets home today....Mommy needs a break:0

Hi Colleen!
I am so sorry the kids have not been feeling well....I hope they are better soon!
Oh, I agree about the Kindergarten....I cried like a baby when each of mine started and I am sure I will be the same if not worse when my little ones start.
Have a great week-end, Colleen!!
Hope the kids are feeling better - we having"something" going around here too - fever, cold and cough. I am glad Faith has 1/2 day Kindergarten (so does Eddie!) and it helps all of us adjust :) I'm already "worried" about next year when Mia starts preschool!! I guess that's a mommys job :)
Also, I've thought about going private when Mia's been home a year - who knows maybe sooner, like you mentioned with all these "anonym" people out there it's scarey!!
P.S. hope I get an invite :)
oh 'll miss reading your posts....think of me if you have a space for another one on board,
ive loved meeting you via Ellens blog

Glad the kids are feeling better. Hannah had a temp of 104 a couple of weeks ago and we almost brought her to ER, but like you after the meds it dropped to 101. It is scary and it always seems to happen in the middle of the night.
Of course you know how I feel about blogs..private is best for family things. Make SURE you send me and invite when you make it private

So sorry the kids have been sick. Carl woke up a little down this morning and I have been waiting for the call from school to come get him. Isn't it terrible when they feel this way?
I've been feeling the same way about my blog. Please, if you do go private be sure to send me an invite!
