There are some things that I am good at. There are other things I am not. Well...a LOT of other things that I am not (good at)! One of those things is multi-tasking. Kevin, Madelyn, Cooper, and nursing school consume all of my time. The first three...I don't mind. It's the fourth. It keeps me from multi-tasking.
If I was keeping up with this blog the way that I want to, you would know that this past weekend we had a family birthday party for both of the kids. We actually had an entire weekend of fun. My mom came into town on Friday and we were able to have dinner with her. After dinner, I checked my phone to see a call from my step-mom, Nita. Her and my dad were on their way to Dallas...and they had a stow-a-way!!! My sweet neice Kaytie was with them. What a surprise for all of us!
The next morning the kids were all systems go before Madelyn's soccer game. When the soccer game rolled around, Maddie scored 2 goals and played harder than I have ever seen her play. I think she was showing off her "mad" soccer skills and she really showed heart in that game. We couldn't have been more proud of her. Later that afternoon, we celebrated Madelyn's 5th birthday and Cooper's quickly approaching 3rd birthday. Of course...when you get more than about 5 people in this house it starts to get crazy! The kids had a great time and both Kevin's parents and my parents were there. I think that might be the first time since we had Madelyn that it had happened. What a wonderful feeling to have this house bursting with family and friends. I wouldn't trade it for anything!
So, I will probably go back to where I forget to multi-task and post the way that I should. If you see that happening, send me an e-mail to give me a swift kick in the rear to get back on track!
