Wish you were here

Well, it's offical. The graduated seniors that were in the youth group are starting college. I miss them. They feel like extended family members. Little brothers and sisters. For them I have this quote:

"You'll get mixed up, of course,
as you already know.
You'll get mixed up
with many strange birds as you go.
So be sure when you step.
Step with care and great tact
and remeber that Life's
a Great Balancing Act.
Just never forget to be dexterous and deft.
And never mix up your right foot with your left.

And you will succeed?
Yes! You will indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)
KID YOU'LL MOVE MOUNTAINS!

So...
be your name Buxbaum or Bixby or Bray
or Mordecai Ali Van Allen O'Shea,
you're off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting.
So...get on your way!"

-Oh the Places You'll Go, Dr. Seuss

Mommyville

Things I have learned in my first few weeks of being a mom:

1. Little boys can not be trusted.

2. Babies can pee as much as grown ups. Pee can fly across a room.

3. If I cup my hands together it makes a great pee catcher.

4. There is such a thing as a poop volcano.

5. While being a mom you never reach a sound sleep. Any little noise makes your mom-dar go off.

6. You will do ANYTHING when it comes to your baby.

7. It's ok to ask for help.

8. You can pray several times a day for someone other than yourself.

9. Sleep is overrated.

10. There is such a thing as love at first sight.
