Things I've Learned this week...

~I really do miss cuddling with Joel at night..he might not believe it, but I miss him when he is gone.
~Brooklyn tries to get away with just about anything..which proves Joel to be right about my lack of disciplining.
~My washing machine cannot wash Brooklyn's comforter its too big..it it is extremely heavy when filled with a ton of water.
~I have no self control when it comes to chocolate covered pretzels..I was suppose to give them away, but I am now a bag short!
~Brooklyn loves getting little notes from her dad, she has obsessed about them ever since he left.
~Jack misses his dad too..he walks around looking for him saying,"Dad,Dad" He holds his to hands up asking where he is and says, "football?" So sad, but sweet.
~I really don't mind feeding the dogs. They didn't jump on me once!
~Just when I think our YW don't have problems, I find myself on my knees. Oh, it really stress me out to raise my own kids.
~I cannot make great homemade chicken noodle soup..it always turns out too thick.
~I made 3 flower girl headpieces that turned out really cute! I could've saved my mom some money had I known.
~Jimmy Kimmel is my favorite late night comedian.

Milestones this week:
Jack says Thank you! I was so proud!
Brooklyn helps stamp and seal all of my Christmas cards..she didn't do too bad either.

Well I GUARANTEE that Brooklyn trying to get away with everything has nothing to do with your ability to discipline. The nature of children is to test and retest the limits to see if they can get away with it "this time." You're a great mom and you have great kids!
