I honestly don’t know why it has been so hard to keep up with the blog this year. it’s not like I have 5 kids running around making me crazy! good grief! I left off in april right before dylan’s birthday (4/21).
I honestly can’t believe he is 9 years old. Sometimes I look at him and see the little boy he was, just yesterday….and sometimes I see him as the teenager he will be in a blink of an eye.
he is my blessing, this boy. God is teaching me so much about life through him. we are proud of him always.
for his birthday, we invited a bunch of friends to a place called laser quest. perfect for 9 year olds….run around in a dark room shooting each other with laser guns. and perfect for moms….very little planning, cooking or cleanup. we ordered pizza to be delivered, I made cupcakes and Dylan chose an angry birds theme. it was a fun afternoon!
a few weekends later, my family came to one of his baseball games and then back to the house for hamburgers (his favorite) and cake & ice cream to celebrate. he had a hit at his game, so it was very exciting to have them there!
my days have gotten much busier these last couple months. I am still watching makena, and it turned into more than full-time this spring. her mom has been getting her mba these last 2 years, so I would watch makena 2 late nights a week (her mom works full-time with sean) while she is at class.
she decided to take 3 classes this spring to finish up, so makena practically lived here (like 5:30 am to 10 pm!). she just graduated, so we are back to a normal schedule…..a few days a week, but no late nights. and I’ll be watching 2 other older kids just for the summer as well…3 days a week. it will be crazy town around here….but fun!
up next, the baseball wrap-up.
