Mother's Day



Today is Mother's Day and the whole house is sick!! It is sad to be sick on the best Sunday of the year and to miss out on all the gifts and singing in church but we are spending the day all together just hanging out. I thought that I would talk a little about my kids (being Mother's Day and all). Right now they are at very fun stages. Collin is playing some recreational soccer through the city and is having a lot of fun. He was very excited about going his first day and insisted on wearing his 'uniform' that his cousin Kyle sent from Brazil and he is now almost big enough to fit in it. The kids all picked their coaches by the color team they were and surprise, surprise, Collin is on the blue team (no other would do). They are just learning the basics right now and Collin is anxious to be playing real soccer (games without his coaches right there) because he already knows how to play soccer he says. Right now he says 'I know' about everything. Isabelle is a very determined little girl. She knows what she wants and won't take 'no' for an answer. She is completely shocked when someone opposes her wishes. We have some work to do there or she will be running the house soon. Already she runs around the house saying "Mama, (where) are you?" and when she finds me she simply says "Come on!" and takes of running, expecting me to follow her and do her bidding. Right now she is obsessed with 'Monsters Inc.' Maybe because she looks like Boo. It is the only thing that she wants to watch. She wakes up and says "Show...Monsters?" It is and extremely well made film and I commend the people at Pixar, but how much can one person really take? I love my children and everything that they are. I have a lot to be grateful for on this day of being a Mom!
