Why I LOVE Being a Mom......

I haven't shared anything too personal lately, especially about my kiddos. I have been so eager to share my new letters with you though...You know, kids are just plain AHMAZING!!! As they tend to get older, all the way from infancy, you think to yourself (well...I did)....oh this is such a great stage in their lives. My oldest (Trent) is now 12, Faith is 6, and Blakey is 5. EVERY stage they have hit has been their BEST stage. I LOVE IT!! Right now, Faith is changing soooo much. Her and I seem to get along better now and she just has soooooo much to say. She is really turning into quite a young lady. Anyway, with her GREAT personality we do tend to hit a few speed bumps here and there. Recently, we had a "tiff." I can't remember what it was, but I was pretty frustrated with her and had sent her to her room. Well........this is what she came back with.......

I am going to translate a couple of the words I circled.
1-Sory=sorry
2-caird=caring
3-If you wodent be a cuponr we wod not have any mony. If you dident have any cupens we wode be foodlis.=If you wouldn't be a couponer we would not have any money. If you didn't have any coupons we would be foodless.  I LOVE IT!!! THIS IS TRULY PRICELESS!! I think my kids are starting to grasp the "coupon" lifestyle and learning that it is good to be frugal. ☺ Isn't this just the sweetest?

Here's another letter she wrote. She was just so darn proud of this. This is a letter that accompanied by mother's day gift, from her.....

Another translation....
1-beoodeful=BEAUTIFUL (I LOVE THIS ONE!!!) ☺
2-slurpis=slurpees (we have just recently introduced our kids to Slurpees and they are now madly in love).

She just melts my heart with all of her new letters and what not....

Now for the last one... A little explanation before I let you see it....Part of her big brother's (Trent/TJ for short) chores is to fold and put laundry away. Well, "TJ" has taken it upon himself to enlist the help of his little brother and sister, which is just fine with us. So, he takes the clothes and gets them together and then when they need hanging it is up to the little ones to get them hung in their closet. Well, Faith doesn't much like that idea very well.....

Translation

Dear dad:

Can you ask TJ to hang up my clothes?

Thank you.

This is sooooo funny! I only wish we could do stuff like this to get out of stuff we don't want to do. Wouldn't it be nice? Yes, this was hanging on her closet door, so it would NOT be missed. ☺

Anyway, I just love all of these hand-written notes she is supplying us with lately. And, YES, I am saving these. These are PRICELESS!!! ☺

By the way, I did ask her before posting these and she said it was okay. ;)

Have your kids done anything lately that "AHMAZES" you? I would love to hear. I LOVE kiddo stories even animal stories too. ;)

Have a great weekend guys!

*Reminder* This is happening tomorrow....Old Navy Flip-Flop Sale 5/21 ONLY

*Reminder, this sale is tomorrow, Saturday, 5/21. Doors open at 7. Better get there early......☺

I have been waiting to announce this and the time has come! ☺

So, whatcha doing the morning of Saturday, 5/21? Well, I'll tell you what I'm doin'. ☺ I am gonna be down at Old Navy getting flip-flops for the kiddos for ONLY $1 a pair! I LOVE this sale! This is a GREAT way to stock up on flip-flops for the family. I wish I could wear them. My "piggies" don't much like the round nobby thing between the toes. It hurts, they have to have a flat piece in between. Now, I know that little piece of information REALLY impacts your life about my toes. ☺ Just another tidbit about me. ☺

Anyway, Old Navy is having their flip-flop sale on Saturday, 5/21, where select flip-flops will ONLY be $1! There is a limit of five per person. FYI, they will be opening the stores at 7 that morning. I would suggest to you that if you have not done this before and are planning to get in on this sale that you get there early. They sell these babies FAST.

Oooooh, I just noticed that it says on their Facebook to "Arrive early for a tasty treat from our Post Foods friends, while supplies last." Does that mean FREE breakfast too? ☺

**This sale is in-store only.

Use this coupon and get a single pair for only $0.85! (Thanks Jessica's Coupons)
Thanks!
