Making Me Happy

Today the color blue is making me happy. I thought I would post something other than the girls for a change. Can't wait to have a home to call my own again.

Earthquake in Chino Hills

Wow. I have never experienced an earthquake this close to home before. The house was really rocking. The girls were down stairs playing in their favorite hideout. Not a very safe location as a really heavy piece 0f furniture could have fallen on them. I ran to them and we stood in a safe area away from potentially hazardous objects as we watched the pool water slosh around like mad. Afterwards I explained to them what had just happened. Big Sis who is now in the "why" stage asked me a ton of questions, then exclaimed, "mom, my bones are still shaking, I was scared."

My bones were shaking too!

PS: No damage, just a couple fallen items and some frames and art of center on the walls.

PSS: As I was finishing this post we felt an aftershock. My heart is leaping out of my chest. The girls and I will be staying close together today.

Happy Anniversary

8 years ago I made the best decision ever. DH is such an amazing man. He really knows how to make me happy, make me smile, make me laugh, and has rescued me too many times to count. Thank you for taking a chance on me!

It hurts and its killing me...

Lil Sis battles going to sleep at night. I tried cutting her naps short, eliminating her naps, etc. Nothing seems to work except keeping her up late. Tonight I put both girls to bed, then an hour later I hear this moaning from the hallway. "Owww, it hurts". Lil Sis is standing in the hallway out of sight, cuz she knows that she shouldn't be out of bed. She points to her right big toe and says she needs a band-aid. Okay. We go to put on a band-aid and suddenly its now the left toe. Seriously! Does every night have to be a battle????

Happy 4th to you all!

Enjoy your BBQs and fireworks! I know we will.
