I really hate Valentine's day, except that every year I search everywhere for the old fashioned Brachs candy hearts. Not the hard ones that taste like nekkos or sweet tarts, the soft ones we ate as kids! I wasn't even looking tonight when I stumbled upon them. Happy happy girl I was!...until I ate too many and got sick. Hehe. Be mine :)
I seriously love a clean car. I can't even describe the feeling I get. Thank you grandma for always making sure I have free car wash coupons. Love you!
One thing I decided...i am waiting until both girls are out of car seats before getting a new car. The car seats and their kicking feet have destroyed the leather.
What did we ever do without them? How did people avoid falling asleep on the way to work? Love love love my morning tea.
(this is yesterday's blog)
Emily said I was crazy. I said, "yeah, but can you believe that some mommies don't act goofy with their kids? Like they're all serious!?" I love our goofiness. :)
On Sunday, I took the girls to the fire station out in Verdi. Misty, my childhood bff, has a boyfriend who works there. He showed the girls all the cool stuff. Alyssa was more into Misty's kids, but Emily was all into the truck. She got to turn on the siren and push buttons. She asked lots of questions. The fire fighters had to go to training, so when they left, they turned on the sirens and all waved to the girls as they drove the big truck out. So cool. Thanks Misty and Brian.
I am so lucky. This is the view from my office. I get to play peek a boo anytime I want. Love it!
Emily and Alyssa made this for me I guess. Emily came into the bathroom this morning as I was getting ready, and she said, "mommy, you're the best mommy and the most loving mommy." And with that she took my finger and fit it on. Happy mama today. :)
Today was kind of blah, one of those days where it was not as easy as usual to notice all the joys around me. I spent hours designing my course I am about to teach from scratch because I misplaced my flash drive. However, in hindsight, I think it gave me a fresh start and the course will be better because of it.
So, my little touch of heaven today came when I was taking a marathon bath with the girls. Emily did a "triple" on my back which is where she lathers it up, scrubs forever, rinses, and repeats three times. Again, heaven! Triple please! :)
