Elizabeth's 12th birthday was on April 2nd! I can't believe how time goes so fast. We celebrated Beth's birthday on Saturday April 4th with family and friends.
On April 6th Nick got his notice that he was being laid off from Bradbury after 16 years. It was a major shock to us and to our family. I think Nick took it well cause he kicked into have to get a job and take care of my family mode. I was just another bitter wife of a recently laid off husband. We got a harsh reality check with the fact that no matter how much you give to a company you are just an employee so all those years of loyalty meant nothing. But there is a happy ending to this story and that is Nick did get another job here in town at the service station just a week or so after being laid off. He is now a greese monkey and loves it. He has been there almost two months now and things are going great for him there. He WILL NOT be returning to the Bradbury Co and I must say I can't be happier with that decision.
The girls have alot going on these last few months. Michelle performed at McPherson May fete and the parade on Friday for baton. Beth marched with the Middle School band in the same parade.
Today is Michelle's 11th birthday. It is still hard for me to believe that my baby is 11 years old. I sometimes wish there was a dail that we could turn and slow time down just a little bit. We will be celebrating her birthday this weekend with family and friends. I am just glad that my girls even though they fight sometimes can get along and love each other.
Well on to me and my job here at home doing daycare. Today is the final day of school for the year. Which for me means 6 kids everyday from 6am to 530pm. I have 8 kids enrolled in my daycare now ranging in age from 8 months to 11 years. I am excited for summer to be here and for the kids to get some time off.
We are now heading into softball season for both girls. This year they are on the same team so our schedule is a little less busy but not by much. I am hoping I can get back to updating my blog a little more often now that things aren't quite so crazy here.
