My Little Puff Daddies
Posted on June 30th, 2009.Today was a rough day. It started out this morning going with my Mom to close on the sale of the house that I grew up in and she and my Dad lived in for 33 + years. It was the last place my Dad lived before he passed away. Many, many good memories were made in that house. It was a sad day but also I am glad that this burden has been lifted off of my Mom. I left the closing and came straight back over to my side of town to work. I have really REALLY REALLY been struggling lately with balancing working part-time, being a Mommy to 4 kids, a wife, keeping up with the house, blogging (ok, I don’t really struggle with blogging, I just don’t do it!) etc! Although my job is supposed to be part-time it has become harder and harder to do in 10 hours per week as our company is growing rapidly. Long story short I had to tell my boss that I cannot work beyond 10 hours per week (for my sanity). We both agreed that it would not be in the best interest of the company to divide the job up and that she would have to hire someone else. So basically I guess I quit my job! I’ll continue working until she finds someone else. I am relived but also trying to deal with feeling guilty for not being super-woman and being able to handle it all! Just when I was about to get a new cape too!
Anyway, so on days like today I love to be surrounded by my little people and Big Daddy and reminded of all the blessings I have! And I also love that they make me laugh! Sorry no funny stories tonight though. I’ll work on something better for the next post. I’ll leave you with a photo of our little queen at 4 months old and some pics of my crazy little men and photographic proof of why you don’t let your kids take pictures with your iPhone at the SnoCone stand. . . you look up and they’re starting their own “No Smoking” campaign!

So, did the sign make them homesick for Alaska? Give all the cutie patooties a kiss from their favorite aunt in the far north!
