It happened again!!!!!

Yes, it has happened again! That thing called a birthday. There is no way to escape them, and we are all going to receive one every year! After a while we just stop counting and hope everyone else does too.

Graduation

Yes, the fifth grade graduated this morning. I cried, and I have cried off and on since coming home. It's hard to see them grow up, because that means I am growing older, graduating to the next step in my life.

Graduation....it happens every day

A Mother's Tears

Are we ever really able to let go? After today, I truly have my doubts, about myself that is. Our fifth grade classes at school are practicing for their"graduation" that will take place this week. I was subbing today and got to participate. It was really more than I could take. I was crying like a baby, because, they are singing the Billy Ray/Miley Cyrus song, Get ready, Don't Go.......

I know this is a milestone all must past, our first son did it, and I don't remember it being quite this hard. Maybe it is because this is our BABY.

I wasn't the only mother crying, another mother/school employee was crying also as she watched.

I am very proud of all these children that will be "graduating". In a way, I feel like they are all my babies....

Baby get ready, Please don't go......

Saturdays

Long gone are the lazy Saturdays. Baseball practice was happening on Tue & Thur which was great, but somehow Saturdays are now involved. Don't get me wrong, if we are PLAYING on Sat then that is ok, but there is just something about having to get up early and drive G to practice....you guessed it...on a SATURDAY morning. Since he is only 11 somebody has to do his driving although he thinks he can drive himself.

I miss the sleeping late and just bummin around, but I can't complain too much.

My complaint today was our coaches, yes both of them were LATE for practice. If one of our players is late then they must run, and run, and run, and well you get the picture.

I called Coach #2, told him there were 4 mothers there that wanted to see then running poles after practice. We knew we were out of our minds for even thinking "Coaches would run"!!!
Practice lasted about 3 hours so I got some exercise in during that time.

Oh well, enough complaining for today. Nobody listens :)
