little weakness
| August 14, 2006 | Posted by nancy under FAMILY |
Thanks to all the little notes from happy friends, family and bloggers out there for our baby girl news. It’s still unreal to me and I’m not sure if I’ll really believe it until she’s here. But that’s not going to stop me from sewing like crazy for 5 months, if I have the energy. Wait a minute, what I am saying, of course I’ll have the energy to sew. It’s the dishes, laundry and cleaning I won’t have the energy for. You know what I mean?
Well, Jay is away on business this week training a new employee on all the workings of the Boca Java website. I would have added a link, but I don’t know how to do that yet. Oh, so if there’s any technical difficulties this week, it will have to wait until my computer expert comes home. He left this afternoon and I already lost my patience, with the boys. I wasn’t feeling the greatest, I get these little headaches in the back of my neck and loud, tired boys don’t help. So, if you think of me this week, just pray I’ll have lots and lots of patience and grace for my boys and they would have the same for me.
I’m sure we’ll stay busy, we plan on visiting my sister who lives across town and getting together with another mom and her children, and going swimming at my parents this week. I also want to finish up the crib set, which is coming along nicely. When that is done, I can concentrate on my baby girl room. Whoo, hoo! I have to finish one thing before I can start another, just something about me.
Update: I wrote the above last night and as of this morning we are doing well. I am remaining calm and trying to be more consitent with the boys and stay on some sort of schedule. Also, the trainee Jay was supposed to train this week was a no show and left a message at the office Sunday night he was not leaving his current job. So, Jay drove 5-1/2 hours for nothing, but he might stay another day for interviews if that pans out. Well, I’m off to do some sewing, it’s been way too long since I’ve posted a crafty picture.

Having just completed my week of taking care of loud, happy, energetic boys, I will pray for you. We love them but now and again would like 5 minutes of peace. There is a reason why God sends babies to younger people than I…because babys quickly become toddlers and they are exhausting. I had forgotten what it is like to be accompanied everywhere by a 3 year old. You are a great mom, Nancy, so you will be fine.
Love, Aunt Ruth
