Tuesday something.

1. I had a mom/Brandon date this evening! We went to the library, his request, then to Braums to get ice cream. I love this boy.
I have to brag on him. The lady in front of us dropped all of her coins from her purse and, without me saying a word, Brandon handed me his cone and began picking up her change for her. It was a very proud moment for me (and his dad later when I told him) of witnessing my son serving others.


2. I plan meals for 2 weeks at a time because I loathe going to the grocery store. I don't plan the days and meals, just enough meals for 14 days. I make a lot of recipes from Pinterest but I planned the next 2 weeks of meals strictly from Pinterest. I am excited, however, my family, even though they have liked nearly every one that I have made, is always skeptical.

3. Blaine's artwork for class made it into the Winner's Circle, the bulletin board by the Office!!

4. The moms of several of Gracelyn's friends have told me that their daughters insist on a say in what they will and will not wear. Gracelyn doesn't ever say anything to me about the clothes I pick out, however she does request shoes. Shoes that I wouldn't necessarily select for the appointed outfit. Gracelyn graced her dad with this presence.

5. We got a signup for BlastBall for Britton and a couple days later we got a call from Brandon's baseball coach. They start practice tomorrow! Britton will play BlastBall and Blaine soccer this Spring, then Brandon will start baseball and Blaine starts T-Ball. Summer will be here soon and in full swing (pun intended.)

6. Speaking of BlastBall, Ryan and I are taking bets on if Britton will actually get into it. He doesn't do much when he gets in front of people. We've asked him if he wants to play and he says yes but we don't think he realizes there will be fans, facing him.

7. Gracelyn has a follow-up speech eval Thursday. The therapist called and asked how she was doing. They want to see her to see if she qualifies for therapy. She says several words but doesn't put them together.


Have a blessed week!

Praying for G's appointment on Thursday! I hope it goes smoothly. You are going to be so busy with sports! Ack! I'd better savor the years I only have one in, right?
