I have not been doing a very good job at blogging lately, so I thought I would recap what is going on this week.
Monday was Martin Luther King Jr. day and Jacob’s comment is one that I want to remember. That morning we listened to part of MLK Jr.’s speech and once it was over he said. “If it weren’t for MLK then Laila (his darling latino friend) and I wouldn’t even be able to be friends, she wouldn’t even be able to get a job.” Made me laugh, but I guess he understands the point a little bit, even though she is Latino.
We stared an impromptu minor laundry room remodel. This was brought on last Friday when my washing machine quit working. Hey as long as we have to move the washer out, we might as well tile the floor and paint, which then led to me taking out the cupboards and pounding away at the soffit above them. This then led me to leave and go to a movie and let Bryan deal with the problem. We discovered the builders had built a nice sturdy soffit completely out of wood, and for what reason???? So anyways we are trying to get the room put back together tomorrow so I can start doing the 20 loads of laundry that are piled up.
Here is a darling shot, i think, of the joy of having boys. We discovered a butter knife that Jonah had thrown down the heater vent (hardwood build in vent) and the boys are all trying to figure out how the best way to get it out will be.
So there you have it, my life this week in a nutshell. Oh and also dealing with the emotions that run wild this time of year for me.
