Boogers and Broccoli

I am enjoying such a pleasant afternoon with my sweet babies (who are growing up so fast they aren't really babies anymore). Abby is playing with one of Jake's building toys while quietly singing a Taylor Swift song and Jake is reading at the kitchen island. It is so peaceful that I took a moment just to take it in and then...Jake breaks the silence with, "Mom, do you know what the difference between boogers and broccoli is?" Hmm....well there are many differences but of course I was going to play along. "What is the difference, Buddy?" With a big smile on his face he says, "Kids will eat boogers!" He started dying laughing and of course big sister said, "Gross" and looked at him as if he had two heads. I do love my life!! Sometimes, even boogers and broccoli can bring you peace!

So, just an update on the BIG MOVE. We are going to Charlotte next week to visit some schools and and a gym. I am looking forward to it b/c it is really hard to make a decision on where to live looking online...been there...done that...don't want to do it again. I told Abby's coach we were moving and he has been so awesome about helping us find a gym. It was really hard telling him and her having to tell her gym buddies. When you spend 19 hours a week together you get real close real fast. She has really bonded with the girls here and she LOVES her coach! It will be an adjustment for her but hopefully it won't be as hard as the move here! If you are reading this, pray that God will make things crystal clear about where we should go!! Until next time...
