Day 56
Day 56 and the floors got installed but one of the kids puked at school. The floors got put down yesterday and I was hoping for a better experience I guess. They were supposed to be there before or right at 9 and then it ended up being 10:30 before they came. I was expecting…

Day 49
Day 49 and I wished for my youngest to never grow up so he didn’t have to understand that his dad was gone. I’m both blessed and cursed that only my oldest truly knows what it means that his dad died. Eventually they’ll all know and it will be like a new trauma for them.…

Day 47
Day 47 and it was full of football. All 3 older boys played at the same time…again. That makes at least 4 out of the 5 games they will do that. Ugh! So hard when it’s just me and he can’t be at one while I’m at the other and then switch. We just make…
