Spring Break

Spring Break was filled with playdates, lunch dates, and just some much needed FREE time for the boys and me! Last Monday, the boys and I headed to see my good friend, Angela, and her boys. We only live an hour apart, but our schedules only allow us to get together during school breaks. We spent some time at a playground, and then we had lunch at Moe's! Angela and I snuck in a quick trip to one of our favorite stores, but our oldest boys weren't very impressed. Needless to say, we were in and out in record time!







And, of course, I didn't get any pictures from one of our other special lunch dates. My friend, Kristen, and her two little girls were in town, and we met for lunch. Our oldest children are just 3 mos. apart, and I have so any sweet memories of them as babies! Our youngest children haven't grown up together but are similar in that they both have a lot of PERSONALITY!

We spent some time with friends here, too. Over the past year, I have had a chance to meet many other moms who have children with Apraxia. Two of the moms have become very good friends of mine. We have things in common beyond apraxia -- our careers for one, but their children are now buddies of Jackson! I am so thankful for these girls, and it is quite entertaining, at times, but also very comforting to see these children play together!

Dave started a new job!!! He was so excited to start this job, and he had a great first week! His commute is a little longer, but he doesn't mind the extra time in the car. He probably likes the peace and quiet after being here! I miss him being at home more, but I am very thankful for how hard he works. He likes what he does, and I get to be at home with the boys! Some moms say staying at home isn't for them, but I consider it a blessing. It's a difficult job at times, but I treasure these days with my young children!
