OUR JOURNEY TO THE ETERNITIES. . .

Another hectic day is coming to an end & I'm definitely happy to say that we are half way thru done with getting the kids costumes. We have 4 girls so they are going to be the 'CHEETAH GIRLS'. I know I know. . . .there's only 3 of them now, but we've decided to include Raven on this one. LOL!! I'm happy to say that everything's coming together so well. :D It's been great watching our kids grow over the years & it just seems like time flies by so fast. Since I've started coupon'ing, I have so much extra $$ to be able to splurge a little bit here & there. And when I say SPLURGE, I mean pick up a magazine that I love to read up on or buy some decorations for the house & so forth. Nothing MAJOR.

My first paper route was a SUCCESS. It took us about 2 hrs to do 200+ homes. It was a blast since all the while long my manager doing the training kept us laughing the whole time!! My mom comes with me on my route & I'm so grateful to her for even wanting to get up @ 1:30 am and head out the door with me. It seriously is so much faster & easier to do a route with 2 people, instead of 1. But hey, if you don't have anyone to go with, it's doable flying SOLO. Don't be discouraged. :D

The girls came home today & just can't stop talking about how much they love SCHOOL. It's so great!! I'll savor every moment of this because I know it won't last long. LOL!! My son says new words on a daily basis & it's just AMAZING to watch!! He was talking on the phone with his dad tonight for 5 min straight. That's definitely a record for him. His dad didn't understand a word he said, but it didn't matter @ all. I love being a mother to my kids & couldn't be more GRATEFUL for the many blessings they bring into our family. I don't know what the future holds for me & my family, but we're definitely EXCITED about the present. These were my thoughts for today.
