Well, since it has been, oh, three and a half months since I have written, I suppose I will just write about what has been going on around here. I honestly did not post anything lately because my mind has felt like mush and I can't even find my car keys or Mason's diapers half the time, let alone put together a well written, meaningful blog entry.
Happier times are here. I am sixteen weeks pregnant with, well, we don't know yet; but, I WILL tell you that today the doctor told us it will either be a boy or a girl!! Hehe. I am so excited to find out who will be joining us in June I can't stand it!
School is flying by ( a good thing, I must say) this year. This class I have of second graders this year? Well, they are a challenge to say the least. It makes me so sad sometimes to try to think of the REAL reasons they act they way they do sometimes. My district is low-income with plenty of poverty and disadvantaged kids to go around. A love for school starts at home, and some of these kids are just worried about whether or not they will eat that day, or if they will get a "whoopin" for not finishing their homework at school. Anyway, I just keep thinking "May 27th, May 27th, May 27th" and it will get here soon (enough).
Mason is two and (almost) a half, and I can't believe it. He is starting to talk in full sentences and understands WAY more than we give him credit for. I love having little conversations about books, school, and what I am doing at thisverysecondeverysecondoftheday. :) He understands that there is a baby in my belly and kisses it every now and then, which makes me cry. Wait. Everything makes me cry.
Mason loves his Daddy. That used to hurt my feelings, but now I love it. They wrestle, play football, and wrestle (yes, I said that twice). It is so fun to watch them do man things together!
I am hosting (the day after) Christmas this year, busily trying to get last minute wrapping, cleaning, and whatever else I forgot to do five minutes ago. It will be fun to have everyone here this year! Our cats have just about ruined our Christmas tree, so that's nice. But hey, the lights still work and (most) of the ornaments are still on the top half of the tree, so I'd say that's a win right there.
Merry Christmas everyone. Don't forget to tip everyone who has ever done anything for you AT LEAST $50.
