For those of you who don't know, homework NEVER goes away. Nope, not even after you graduate from college. In fact, I think I do more homework now than I did when I was in college. Seriously--well, on most days at least. And I guess I'm not technically the one doing the homework now, but believe me, it sure feels like I am.
Jared practicing his spelling.Ryan, David, and Jason are at piano and Kevin is asleep. So it's just Jared and me doing homework. I think Jared has taken after Ryan in procrastinating the whole homework thing. Ugh. So we try to make it fun for him. A white board and dry erase markers to learn his spelling words:) It works some of the time.
The past few weeks have been full of emotion for me. Most of the time it is good emotion, but sometimes it's stressful and confusing. A week or so ago it was a confusing day. I knew I needed to snap out of it when David told me, "Mom, you're being and emotional black hole. You're making everyone feel glum. In the Proclamation it says you shouldn't be an emotional black hole." I laughed so hard. I tried not to, really I did. David felt bad, like I was laughing at him. Which I guess I was, but really--who thinks of things like that? My David, that's who:) I love that boy so much! He always has the most interesting way of saying things. They are so descriptive that you have to see it for what it is and change. So, I am no longer and emotional black hole:) Thanks Dave!
