snow

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday we enjoyed beautiful spring weather, it was heavenly! We played outside every possible moment and cherished every second because it seemed too good to be true, and it was or might be. This weekend, more specifically Saturday night into Sunday it is suppose to snow, nothing much, probably no accumulations, but snow none the less. SNOW a few days before April? I am so over winter, I am ready for spring and more specifically summer. I guess the phrase about march that it will enter like a lion and live like a lamb or the other way around, it will definitely leave like a lion. We haven't gotten much snow this year, nothing accumulating since December, before winter actually began and here it is suppose to snow again after winter is officially over. I thought climate change was suppose to bring warmth? and warmth earlier? it has been a cold winter and I am ready for warm temperatures to come and stay.

what a difference

Lance really didn't start talking until he was 4. He said a few words here and there before there, but I was the only one who really understood him and then last summer sentence were flying out. Lance has come such a long way in the last 9 months, he isn't up to par with most of his peers, but he isn't as far behind as he was.

What blows me away isn't so much what Lance can say, but what Lily can. She blows me away. Lily can say what Lance can at 4 and she talks and talks and talks. It makes me wonder what it would have been like for Lance to talk at 2. I am bit sad I missed what Lance would have said at two, because Lily is pretty darn cute, but then would he be as cute or as talkative? I wonder if Lance had been "normal" and had a lot to say at 2 like Lily, would Lily talk this much now? WIth the exception of the temper tantrums, I am enjoying Lily right now, the things she says and the way she says them are too cute. That girl is going to get away with murder from her cuteness, she is dangerous.

it's been a long time

Finding time to sit down and compose a thought and not a to-do list is a rare event. I use to blog in the afternoons when the kids napped, but now that Lance doesn't nap I don't always have a free moment to myself, which is not good, I have school work and work-work.

Lance is growing up too fast. Last week we went to Kindergarten pre-registration. Kindergarten, I am so excited, but so terrified. Next fall he will be in school all DAY! I am excited for him, but also sad, I will miss him. I am thankful that Lily is going to preschool two days a week so Lance and I have two mornings together, I try and always remember that my days are precious and I won't necessarily have this time in the future, which I will admit it easier said than done when there is vacuuming to do and errands to run. Once again I am trying to find balance and I am no closer to figuring it out, I can't seem to balance work, school, kids, chores, errands, etc, something always gets shafted. Lately schoolwork has been left out which is starting to bring me unneeded stress. I have a large project due April 9 and I have done nothing, well found a few potential websites to help me out, but I have SO MUCH TO DO and so little time. I get anxious just thinking about it, but I set a goal, I am going to get some work done on Wednesday and hopefully have it complete by April 1st! I am on the home stretch of school and though I love school, I can tell that my motivation is fleeting!
