Full-time

I have decided it is much easier being a mom then it is working full-time. I have only been working full-time for 2 weeks and I am already grouchy as heck(ask my hubby...). Kaden is already showing signs of being a momma's boy and I love it. The only thing that will be worth the time away from my kids is the money I will be making and saving, which will be so nice since Rodeo and Barrel Racing season is almost around the corner. As you can see I still haven't learned how to post pictures.

Kaden

Kaden recently just had his 2 birthday. We had a little family party at the house. He does the cutiest things. He loves his uncle Todd and Uncle Jason. We have found out that he will do and eat almost anything if you tell him "uncle Todd says". He gives you this look and proceeds with what ever we asked of him.

Yesterday Lance was home with the kids and him and Cody were playing Sorry. He kept hearing Kaden in the background mumbling something so he turned around. Kaden had his arms folded and he was saying "Heavenly Father, Heavenly Father, Heavenly Father" I almost cried when Lance told me. The things they learn and the spirit that they have amazes me daily.

S-T-R-E-S-S

So I am just figuring out this whole blog thing. Jennie hasn't showed me the in's and out's yet of my blog. I barely even know my username and password. So this is my first attempt by myself.

I have been involved in Girls Basketball since the first of November and can I just say that out of the last 4 years of doing this I can't wait tell it is over this year. This has been the most stressful year with parents, girls attitude's, effort and I have a severe rash to prove it....I have decided that next year we are having a parent meeting at the beginning of the season and possibly will invite them to practice so they can see just how hard their daughter is working. It is quite funning when at the beginning of practice they all come up to me and ask, "How much running or conditioning are we doing today?" Last time I checked basketball is a running sport, acutally a major part of it, and if you don't like it you are in the wrong sport. Anyway I could go on, and on about it, but the truth of the matter is I love Basketball and I guess that is why a lay a wake at night trying to figure out what to do in order to get these girls to play to their potential. I found a quote one day that said "Winning can be related to self-confidence, self-confidence is related to preparation." I think our team hasn't figured out the preparation part yet.......
