back to the ole routine

So spring break came and went with wind, rain, and snow. The sun did try to peak it's head in once in a while but for the most part I am glad that easter is in april this year. Sadly we will be celebrating easter at home this year. All my boys are playing arena football and have games the saturday we celebrate easter. I debated on whether or not for Nikieshia and I to drive to mom's by ourselves but then decided that we needed to stay together as a family for this holiday. so we will spend the day watching football games instead of picnicing in the wind. makes me sad since that has been our tradition for so long.
Dan and Alex's friends dad are coaching the three older boys in football and it is the first time for both of them so it could prove to be a fun spectator sport for me and kieshia. I am proud of him for getting out there and doing it though. Plus it is a good bonding moment for him and the boys. funny i am sure but good. So for those of you going to mom's for easter have fun and think of me here in idaho where I am sure that we will probably seen wind, rain, and snow.

So the sun is starting to shine and the snow is slowing fading away and the mud is trying to dry up thanks to the wind that always blows in idaho. Next week is my spring break and sadly though I don't get to enjoy it with my kids I will however be enjoying my time off from work. Don't know what I will be doing but I know that I will enjoy it hopefully everyone and everything else cooporates with my plan. So D.J has discovered girls and now has a girl friend. a really nice LDS girl, who drives him to school most days and spends the weekends at my house. (That is okay because I can keep an eye on them) I think he is content to not go get his license because Devanee drives him everywhere and he is okay with that. Sadly we don't see him much because when he is home he is in his room on the phone with her. When she is over they sit on the couch and tease each other unmercily, so his interactions with us have dwindled. Now if he would get his grades up I won't have to interupt this puppy love and Devanee can keep hanging out with us. it is nice to have another girl in the house giving the boys some grief for a change. I think I might be okay with this other woman in my boy's lives. as long as it is nothing serious for a long time and I get to stay number one on their list of girls.
Yesterday i spent the day at a funeral for our former Head Start director and her nieces sang a song that was called "can you hear me talking to you" made me realize I need to let the people I love know it before they are gone or I am gone. so to all of you out there who read my blog know that I love you all. You are all amazing people and I am so grateful to have you in my life and a part of my family whether you are related to us or not. On that note just know I will be thinking of you working next week while I am home watching soaps and eatting bon bons.
