Blog? What Blog?

I've fallen off the face of the earth but that's what happens when your a school volunteer, helping the PTA, a mom, wife and lets just top that off with being a student. So needless to say free time is well something I have no concept of. Not that I had in the past to be quite honest but if I did have any free time before I sure as heck don't know!
The boys are thriving, not without struggles but thriving. Z had his name mentioned over the intercom for Mathematics! I'm VERY proud! E's becoming more of a fluent reader and Z has recently taken up the hobby of reading...yes READING! I hope this habit doesnt die that's for sure.
So much has gone on in our little household, Pop's has turned a year older, Praise God. The boys and I took our very first road trip alone. Mind you it was only a 4 hour drive from home but none the less we did it, I did it! We drove to Houston to meet up with my family. My nephew is at the Ronald McDonald House. We rented a room but spent most of our days at the RMH. I have to say I am VERY proud of my boys. They played with children who were very sick and NEVER, EVER questioned a thing. They saw a playmate and played away. For me it was rather bitter sweet. My heart and prayers go out to each and every child in that house. While there the boys were invited to all the activities they offered. One was the petting zoo where I caught Z in a almost catatonic state with a little yellow chick. He asked if he could have one. Little does he know I was already planning on getting two little chicks to have my own URBAN COOP...nothing like fresh eggs to make all of ones baking PERFECT! So I told him if he and Little E were good the Easter Bunny would bring them each a little chick. He liked that idea.
Well like always I'm out of time! I am off to help out at the Snack Shack up at the school! A mom's job is just never done! Hope to keep up with more blogging. Til then here are some sweet pics of Z and the chick. Hopefully soon it will be the boys and their own little chicks! :)



He put that little chicky to sleep!
