It's a March Monday

Yep...been a while since I last blogged. We have had every germ and illness found in this city, running through our house since about the first week in Feb. I was sooo sick of sick kids. I truly had someone home sick every day for the 3 weeks. Talk about putting a kink in the daily grind! YIEKS! I am so pleased to say that everyone is now back at school and except for Sunshine's ever present snotty nose, we are back in the saddle again! Thank God!

It has been an intense couple of weeks. A time in my life that I wish I had super powers and could be in multiple places at once. I needed to be at the shop, needed to be at home, wanted to run away by myself and leave the circus! This motherhood buisness is the worlds most tricky balancing act. So many times I feel like I have fallen off the wire and wonder what in the world will catch me. I can't wait for true spring to arrive, warm days, warm nights, with time to hopefully catch my breath.

I was reflecting on life over the last 4 years. Each year has brought some huge change. There was re-locating the shop, moving to the new house, beginning the adoption journey and moving the shop again. Now the shop is settled, we have completed our family, we are NEVER moving...so I am really hoping we can just slow down a tiny bit and settle into the status quo!

Sunshine continues to thrive. She is growing like a weed and is soo funny. She is a total stinker and has a look that puts fear in my heart as I imagine that look in about 10 years! She continues to LOVE her brothers, her cats, her dogs and lately her books. I have Brown Bear memorized and have been know to recite it in the wee small hours of the morning! She still isn't a good sleeper, but I am hopefull that might change post surgery. She is turning into a real girly girl and loves her pretties and purses and babies! (Yay!) SHe is constant motion, and usually has us wrapped around her finger! At the moment we are looking for the perfect Easter Dress. Ahhh o many choices!

Time to go reclaim the brothers from school. I would promise to blog more often...but lets be realistic...it is a rare day the stars line up long enough for me to compose my thoughts let alone type them out :)!
