Catching up…

It feels like forever since I last wrote to you, and I apologize. Gosh how I miss this blog, it is so therapeutic and the connections are amazing; so many friendships, support and so many emails asking if I am OK or if I need anything. I am fine, life is so good; I just wish I had more TIME and more ENERGY to get it all done.

I think I have the greatest readers and I cannot thank you all enough.

Around 3pm yesterday while I work I discovered that I had paper due. I have no idea how I let that slip by me but I did manage to get it done and submitted on time. I stayed late after work to do it but I kept thinking about my children and how they were anxiously waiting for me to get home because it was Valentine’s Day.

We went to a movie and had dinner out; it really was a lovely night. The kids gave me flowers, candy and cards. I gave them little gifts.

My three sweet hearts!

I received a love letter from Winterlyn:

Dear Mommy,

I love it so when you yawn really loudly and I am proudly the only one who does the same thing! I also love your laugh. The one that I really love is your creative ideas about everything.

I Love You,

Winterlyn

We got home late and I didn’t get into bed until 1am; I am tired this morning.

College is going well; I am finding it difficult balancing it all and it seems like my nose is always in a book. Even when I sleep I am dreaming about my assignments, papers and what I should or should not write or read.

However, I am really enjoying myself. It feels like everything in my life is finally coming together. I haven’t felt this happy in a very very long time.

This weekend I do not have the kids so I hope to get as much college work done as possible. However, I refuse to be stuck in the house by myself all weekend! Maybe I will take a weekend trip, bring the books and Sophia with me. Even though it is cold, the ocean is calling me and I am anxious to hear the Seagulls laugh.
