Lately these girls think my bed is the place to be.
While TJ was packing and getting ready to leave for a show for a week. the girls brought in their looms and set up shop on my bed. Tallie has been working on a jumprope which will most likely deplete her stock pile of bands, and Chloe is working on a belt. They keep telling me I need to YouTube some videos and teach them some new loops. Problem with that is I get hooked and spend all night looming myself.
Tj is now gone to California and the house feels so empty even thought there are still 5 of us here.
I'm hoping that monster mom doesn't come out this week and that it goes by smoothly.
Before TJ left he made me open the gun safe and rehearsed to me what to do should I need to.
Its scary having a gun in the house but reassuring at the same time.
Before he left he gathered us all for a family prayer. We haven't done that in the past which seems so odd and crazy that we haven't.
I just can't wait for him to come back.
I miss him already.
I'm pages away from finishing reading the "Matched" trilogy.
Took me under 3 weeks.
They are that good.
Now I need to take a reading break so my family is not neglected.
I also forgot to mention in my Goals that I want to work on being a more present mom (goodbye books) and to be more playful and engaged with my kiddos. I want to laugh with them and try really really really hard not to yell.
Why is that so hard? I have really good kids.
