Growing up too fast...

There are days that I just sit back and stare at my kids. Then they ask me, "why do you keeping looking at me?" I reply, "because you are just growing in front of my eyes." Where does the time go and why does it go so fast? I can't believe that in a couple of months my first baby will be ten years old! Wow!!

We are going to be taking a trip to Liverpool in a couple of weeks and when we told Bryce he was thrilled because this is his favorite football team (soccer) here in England. We are going to take a tour of the stadium and he is counting down the days.

Touched...

Today my son reminded me of something very important in life!!

I took the kids to school today and a mother who I don't know came up to me and asked if I was Tyler's mum. I replied "yes." She then continued to say that "your son has really lifted my sons spirits and has made him feel really good about himself." I thought wow, what did Tyler say. Apparently, this boy who is in a different class has fallen off of his scooter and has scraped up his face pretty badly. The boy was very sad about how his faced looked and Tyler came to him and said, "don't worry I know it will get better very soon and it doesn't look bad... everything will be ok." I guess the boy smiled and went home to tell his mum that an american boy named Tyler made him feel good today and told me that my face will get better soon. His mum was so kind and thanked me for having such a caring boy.

I am really touched by this and we are so proud of the way Tyler handled the situation. Like I said Tyler has reminded me of something very important in life and that is to always try to care for others and take a moment to stop and think about how they feel and possibly how you can make them feel better!

Kylie is loving dance

Kylie has been taking ballet and tap lessons every Wednesday and she is loving it! Of course this makes me happy since I too loved to dance.
