My SwEeT LiTtLe GiRl...

I cant get over how big of a girl Madison has become. She is so funny. Here she is a few minutes ago with "pretend" glasses. Since Bethanie has glasses now, Madison wants to fit in. She wears them so proudly. I cant believe this is my baby......I feel like they are all growing up way too fast. My oldest child, Matthew is going to be 11 very soon. :O(

BeAuTiFuL dAy!!!

I woke up to big, beautiful flakes of perfect snow! It wont amount to much. The joy it brought me will certainly last longer than the snow its self. How pretty (and non-threatening).

I wonder if Jeff is keeping his head warm. ;P

A friend of ours (who is near my age, with three young daughters) has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. She is a wonderful woman who has such strong faith, remarkable courage and she is an example to me. She recently started chemo and radiation. She has just lost all of her hair. Oh, she works at the hospital Jeff works at. Some of the guys came up with a sweet way to support Sara. They all decided that when she lost her hair, they would match her head to theirs. They all came in today to shave it all off. I must say, that is such love and respect!

From left to right: Matt, Jeff, Dr. Murphey (her primary doctor) and Tyce

amazingly enough, and purely by accident they were all wearing green. Its not St. Patricks Day yet. ;P

Dont they look nervous???

The joke was that they all would start off by getting their dream styles done, you know, mohawk, and such. Jeff had a Friar Tuck. LOL! It was a hoot! What good sports they all are!

Isn't he handsome? He wondered if he had any lumps and bumps on his head. Seriously, he has considered doing this before, although I am not sure to this extreme. I think he likes it. The girls dont. Matthew does but he said it will take some getting used to. I like it. It feels really soft. I bet it comes back really silver. LOL! He is over 40 now you know. :P

After all is said and done:

Matt, Sara (the honoree), Jeff, Tyce and Dr. Murphey.

Really I think they all looked great after!

What a wonderful way to show sweet Sara how much support people are giving to her!

TuEsDaY's TrEaTs...

I did nothing spectacular for treats yesterday. I just didn't have time with all three kids home (one being really sick). So last night while I was watching LOST, I made a couple batches of brownies with chocolate chips melting on top.

I just wish I could have done something more for husband today. It has been crazy with all this homework on top of Matthew's school lessons, and Bethanie being sick for two days. I just cant keep up!

BoNkErS...

Homework, kids, homework, kids, homework, kids, kids homework, my homework, kids homework, my homework, sick kids, no homework, sick kids, no homework, going crazy, feeling stressed, going crazy, feeling stressed. I really need to find a way to balance these things....

OuT To EaT...SoRt Of...

Today I am going to Bethanie's school to eat lunch with her! She is so excited!!! So am I!!! When a parent gets to eat with their child, they get to sit in a special area on the stage with the tables, just with their kid and other visitors that come that day. I really am loving this time with her.
