PTA meeting and decorating Pumpkins!





Helping out at School!!!























































I went to C.J.'s School on Monday and helped in The Library and the Lunchroom.It was the first day that they were able to check out Books. C.J. and another girl in his class are in a special reading class and they go to the Library almost every day and read a book and take test on what they have read...C.J. has passed every time. I am so proud of my little reader and I am thankful to my amazing "Jewish Mother", Bonnie, who taught me more than anyone about being a good Mom and how reading is so important..it really paid off for C.J.!!!

I have to say that being C.J.'s Mom is the best. There really are no words to describe the depth of my love for him. He is sweet, adorable, funny, caring , smart and he LOVES his friends!!! He has always heard me tell my friends that I love them, his whole 5 years and when I hear him tell his friends that..ALL the time, it goes to show that kids do become their Parents..now I just need to work on that little thing called "Patience"LOL!!!

C.J. rides the Bus for the first time!!!




























C.J. rode the Bus for the first time on Wednesday. Chad was out of town and I had Bible Study so he was VERY excited that he got to ride with his good Friend, Collin, who lives across the Street. God has really blessed us with great Neighbors..Chad and I said that he would be able to ride a few times a week BUT we still like to have our time with him also..it means a lot to Chad and myself when he is able to have that one on one time with him a few times a week..we both feel so blessed that God chose is to be his Mom and Dad..he is one amazing child!!!!

Go Warrior's!!!




C.J. brought Leo the Leopard home from School on Tuesday. That meant that he had to take him everywhere with him..He played the Wii with C.J., watched some T.V., went to his Soccer game, to Dinner and then to bed with C.J.. He had a lot of fun with Leo and a lot of fun at his game..whenever he sees Josh, his best friend, they always have a great time..that's how it should be right!!

Trip to Atlanta



C.J. and I went to Atlanta over the weekend and had a great time seeing all our friends.I feel so blessed to have know these special Women for the past 18-20 years.

Cara, Susan and I had a wonderful time going out to Dinner on Sunday and celebrating all our Birthday's and catching up with what has been going on in our lives. we have been friends for 18 Years and my life would not be the same without them.We have been through so much together and I am thankful that I have friends that love me in spite of ALL my faults, that will laugh and cry with me and that do not judge me. There is no doubt that when I think of Family, I think of them. Iknow that if I ever needed them they would always be there for me!!!

It is so hard to believe that Miriam will be turning 20 this year..the years have just flown by. She was only 3 months old when I became her Nanny 20 years ago..I am getting VERY old, and now she is in her 2nd year of College and she is on the Honor Roll...so proud of her!!! I will always be grateful that God brought them into my life and how I am the Mom I am , could always be better, because of Bonnie and what I have learned from her..raising 3 amazing Kids that all went to College and have all made honor roll and that actually really love each other:)I never take these relationships for granted and I pray that God will always keep them safe in His loving arms!!!
