More Exciting Than A Birthday Or Christmas
It's true. The children were more excited today than almost any other day I can remember in the past year. Why you might ask? They got their bedrooms back! They have real beds to sleep on. (Well, except Kaydi, hers didn't arrive yet but she was just as giddy as Kylee and Kaden to be back in her room.) We've been sleeping in the basement on air mattresses for 172 days! Can you imagine? Last night I stood for the longest time watching them all sleep beside each other. Kylee and Kaden had been sleeping at one end of the family room on their air mattresses and Kaydi had been at the other end of the room in a play pen. She decided a couple nights ago that she was going to sleep in between them and made her own bed right there. I wish I would have taken a picture, but I didn't. They were so peaceful, together. We are truly blessed to have each other and so thankful to have beds and bedrooms. It really is the small things in life that matter. The small things might actually be the big things! Well, I'm off to try out my new bed and as Chad said, enjoy the incredible view out our bedroom window in the morning. Sweet Dreams - I know mine will be.

Thank You Kaden
The conversation went something like this tonight as
Kaden walked into Kaydi's room...
Kaydi - "GO!" "OUT!"
as she pushed Kaden out of her room and closed the door.
Kaden then knocks and says "Please."
Kaydi then opens the door and says "NO WAY,"
shuts the door on him again and locks it.
At Christmas time we took the kids to Valley West Mall to ride the train. While in line waiting to purchase the tickets Kylee informs us that she's not riding it, so then Kaden says that he's not riding it if Kylee isn't. In the mean time, Kaydi is getting very excited. We told Kaden that Kaydi wasn't big enough to ride it yet by herself, so being the great big brother that he is, he rode it with her.
THANK YOU KADEN for being such a great brother!
Your sisters adore you,
even if they won't let you in their rooms!
P.S. Kylee couldn't resist riding the train after seeing
Kaden and Kaydi on it.
I'm glad "my little girl" is still there on occasion.

For My Teenager
Ky - I have so many wishes for you.
I want you to be safe, smart, cautious, and wise beyond your years.
You will always be my little girl. Please don't grow up too fast.
Get your feet wet with new experiences, but never get in over your head.
You are LOVED beyond words, and I will love you beyond all time.
So many treasures await you in your journey through life,
and being blessed with you...
has been mine.
Love, Mom
The Wildcats Beat The Peacocks! 68-82
Could there really ever be a contest between a wildcat and a peacock?
Kylee had fun doing some artwork for the Wildcats to enjoy.
Kaydi wanted to get in on the coaching action!
