a smile for the last two weeks that have really brought us fevers n yucks.
This is Life...
A dairy of a large family in a small world. Moms memory, a record of feelings, gratitude, little details and my truths as I see them from a small home in Colorado.

Sabatage
Oh the amount of backstabbing that has been abound lately. It is a true saying you can only pick your friends but you cant pick your family. Same goes about when you have kids. That 3rd child of mine. A girl (the complex ones almost always are) not even a month past her 5th birthday. She is good she can lie cheat steal like no others. This morning though tops it all. At least so far. Although I really hope she doesnt out do herself in this area. Anyway my poor only son with 3 sisters. This post should really be about him and his fist missing tooth. Cute boy has had shark teeth for a few weeks so Im glad it finally fell out. But the tooth fairy had a late notice that his first tooth fell out but none the less she managed to sneek him a dollar (even tho those first teeth go for a litttle more) in the envelope under his pillow pet. At 615 there was a squeal from that room his share with his little sister. And I grumpily told that squeal to go back to bed. But when I got up 45 mins later with the alarm there was a sad boy with no tooth and no money. And a child with a evil grin on her face. Long story short tonight I have yet to find were that dollar went. She has yet to confess and some how that poor boy think the tooth fairy had a misunderstanding and didn't leave him a dollar. You better your sweet bippy that she will fix that tonight in a way that the jealous little sister cant get it.

Rounding up....
Uhh this is our last week of endless Daddy travel. I've been home with my 4 wonderful monsters just me as hubz works 1000 miles away 5 days a week on the night shift. Which means when he is home he is on the night shift = mommy is still on call. 24 7. Its zipped by me I must say... 2 birthdays and now holidays are upon us yet again. But looking for the good in it is something I need to be conscious of, because the past year its been so hard to see, I have lost my self in all the worry of the ordeal. New baby started that year, nursing (full time job in of itself), 3 kids school searching from 4 states away... A good note is cleaning out my hoarder like basement in the failed move attempt. Good thing we bailed before putting money into it... well not money i cant get back, our home is now fixed up more than ever before and we get to enjoy it our selves. And I get to keep my best garden ever in Colorado. Last summer was a first that our large family had an over abundance of veggies and our garden was only 2ft x3ft. I will double that for sure next spring. Living here just before the front range makes things like gardening and baking a little more interesting and tricky. Not high enough it be high elevation but definitely well above sea level were I had all other previous cooking experience and boy water does boil off differently!Still cant make a successful loaf of bread my self but that will be another post. All in all I am happy to stay in our little nest we carved here for our ducks, in our familiar surroundings halfway between normal suburbia and our Bouldaria lifestyle.
