It won't stop raining and its making me crazy! I need sunshine back - I put my Facebook profile pic back to the one in Puerto Rico so I can relive the sunshine!!
Elijah is struggling with potty training, we thought we had hit the home stretch but no go. He lasted in undies for one day and that was enough. They say with boys it takes a long time but this is getting a bit much! He knows what to do, he's just being stubborn.
Elijah went to the Bluefish game a few weeks ago and got to run the bases. It was a defining moment in his young life for so many reasons. They have the kids run by themselves and he was not afraid at all. He took off all by himself and ran like a pro. I teared up as he came to homeplate, a little from pride but mostly from the distinct realization that my son is growing up. He's become a little boy, morphing into a little man from my little baby boy. I still get a little choked up when I think about it - he is growing up too fast. I couldn't be a prouder mommy though that is for sure.
Planning our Memorial Day bash - hopefully folks can make it, always nice to have a party at the house. We've done quite a bit of work lately, the lawn looks amazing with the new grass. Painted our bedroom a nice medium chocolate brown. Got new bedding and it came together very nicely. Hung a clothesline but I can't use it because of the rain! Grrr!! Looking into getting the driveway paved, hopefully that won't cost an arm and a leg.
The lilacs are coming in and the smell is intoxicating. Takes me back to being a kid in my grandpa's yard. He had 6 HUGE lilac trees and every year they bloomed so beautifully! I would cut the stems and sell them for a nickel.
More to come soon....
