I should be cleaning my house, you know how that is, I hate doing it but once I start I will get that done. Today is my first day off since I have been back from our vacation a week ago. 7 days off and then 7 days working is tough. I have to catch up on all of our laundry. We then have swimming lessons this week. They have been tough on the days I've been working, mon. it took me an hour and a half to take my kids to swimming lessons and my work only had alloted me a half hour lunch that day! Just getting to and from is the hard part with the construction going on the freeway. I been blessed with Justins family that will help out with my kids a lot of the time, but I hate having to ask all the time so I suffer and try to do all myself. I know sometimes signing my kids up for things like this is impossible to even get done with my job, but I don't want them going without just because we are both working parents. I feel they all have to give so much as it is and that is not what I want for them. I know my job is what we need as a family to make ends meet some times, but some days I would love just to stay home with them and let them be kids. Let them go to there friends house to play and let them roam the neighborhood with their friends. What normal kids do during the day. Instead they are a a babysitters about 8 hours a day. So this is my worry on a daily basis when I drop them off to play. I am lucky they enjoy going to their daycare and she is a wonderful lady, if it wasn't for her I probably couldn't stay working.
Anyways I'm going to pack our trailer and we are going to be able to camping with some close family friends this weekend. They have boys Zac's age and a 15 year old daughter that Wyatt just adores and loves!! We have really enjoyed this year becoming so close to them, I don't think I've come across more behaved kids! So off to cleaning and doing laundry, then swimming lessons, and packing our trailer.

Today I was reading some other blogs and decided I could do this , so lets see if I can. I know with all that I have to do with my job and kids adding one more thing can be treacherous!! Anyways I have a wonderful husband and I'm a very lucky woman to have the one I got. Here is an example, On Thurs night I decided last minute to go with my horse riding club to the distrct show and ride in it, (this was like 8 at night). I had to work the next day and then have a horse ready by the time I get off and then also myself. Justin didn't even complain! He said when he got off he would get the horse ready and that he would also take me. So by the time I got off work he had the horse bathed and brushed our and shinny ready for the show. He then takes me there and helps me get ready and saddles the horse and then while I show he watches our 4 kids until about midnight. This why I can't ask for more then what I get! I love him and are very lucky to be married to him! With him we have 4 kids that is a trial everyday for me. Our life is never boring I can tell you that! They are the light of my life, I can't wait to come home and see them. Even when I say otherwise!! Zachary is ten and love sports, hunting , video games and his friends. Kyle is 6 and love sports, hunting, coloring, playdough, and swimming. Wyatt is 3 and he loves to think he is bigger and loves his bike and loves trying to help his sister, also just been potty trained. Reagan is almost 1, she loves getting into anything she isn't suppose to and being a holy tear! But we love her and all the joy she brings to our family she is a wonderful baby!
