OMG!!

I am about to lose what little sanity I had left! These girls have been out of school for close to 3 weeks now and they are calling for flurries tonight... in the South, that means schools will be closed. Granted my girls only go 2-3 days a week but those 5 hours last Thursday might have been enough to recharge my sanity. The prospect of having to wait another 3 days for those 5 hours scares the bejesus out of me! Oh and every other day, Bug decides she doesn't need a nap and sits in her room talking to her entourage, reading to them or singing. I know she's trying to give them up altogether and it's probably about past time to but I'm just not ready for that. Plus if she wakes Peanut, doody is gonna hit the fan! A grumpy Peanut makes a miserable momma! LOL

To top it all off... tomorrow my little Bug turns 5. Yes, 5. Why does that sound so odd to say it and type it?!?!? She's not so much of a little girl anymore. She is having her first sleep-over on Friday. Or as the hubby put it, "#1 of 9 million sleep-overs! Let the torture begin!" I can't believe it's been 5 years. I know it's so cliche, but I remember when we brought her home (I'm trying NOT to remember giving birth to that 9 lb. 2 oz. chunk-of-love!!!). I was so unsure of myself and her that we slept on the couch for a week (her on my chest). I remember the Lactation consultant showing me how to nurse, massaging & squeezing my boob in front of my hubby to teach me how to do it properly and then placing my little Hoover on there and I was thinking "won't that hurt her neck in that position? holy crap, how can that little thing suck so hard? how long does this take? What... she needs to eat again... already?" Oh, to be a new-mom again. I'm learning that I am still a "new-mom" just to an almost-kindergartner!

Praying for peace in this Wild House... at least 5 hours of it!
