We went to a funeral today that really made me think of Dave and how much that he's missing. Keary V's (his dad died) family did a video with a collection of pictures and did the music that was about dad and then about grandpa. About him always being there. It just really hit me how much the girls are missing. (All four of them!) Dad's hold a very important part in a kids life no matter how old they are!
I've gotten to watch the girls a couple of times. It's been fun even though Teagan's been sick. Watching her get out of the baby stage and into the toddler stage has been fun to watch. It's amazing how quickly her vocabulary is growing! She'll be 3 in April! The down side has been the work that I haven't been able to get done! You'd think that I could do it in the evening but that doesn't work so well when the electricity goes out and is out for most the evening! Two time this week alone!!! (It's been a tad windy this week!) Luckily the wind has pretty much died down but I'm now thinking a battery back up or some such thing might not be a bad idea! My poor computer is finding it harder and harder to boot up properly when it gets shut off that way, and since it's happened three times this fall it's getting really, really old! QuickBooks REALLY doesn't like it when the computers shut down with it open. :( Or maybe the poor computer is just getting old. This is the longest I've ever had a computer last. (It's almost 4 years old). Add to that Christina needing oral surgery. UHG!!
So with all of that said, (I'm feeling somewhat whinny :) ), I need to remember that my Father is there to help. I just need to be willing to ask! Help to deal with the up's and down's of life. It's been real to me just how quickly and easy it is to slip into a poor me attitude when life dumps on you. It's a struggle to not let it overwhelm!
Whine session over! :)
Yep, she's pretty much a pro
Mia's in kitty heaven! :)
