Visit to the Farm

A local farm had a homeschool day today so we joined in the fun. It included a hayride and a trip to their "milk bar". It was tons of fun for the kids. They got to feed a horse, the goats and hold a rooster. As I write this S is sitting next to me saying "I Love You" over and over and over - how much better could life get than this! Now he just told me he loves me when I am in the kitchen : -) We brought along our lunch and enjoyed some time with our friends, the K family and the B family.




Baby J hung out the whole time, snugged up next to his mama. Taking 3 out to events like this is hard sometimes but I am getting better at it. Baby J is wearing a onesie here that S wore when he was 7 months old. Baby J is growing so big, so quick - too quick for me!! He is a very happy baby. Not as sleepy as he was but still a better sleeper than S was when he was little.

I am in a huge funk. Even a close friend noticed and has brought it up. I can't shake this depressing feeling for some reason. The economy and personal finances are a huge stresser for me right now, as for many other people. I just need to enjoy what we have and try to not project down the road too far. I just get so depressed and upset and it affects my attitude with my family. I wish I could just compartmentalize things and focus on the task at hand and enjoy my kids. I have lots of wishes and one of them is to hop off here and play with my boy that is begging to play cars with his mama right now!
