I want that Back...


The older I get the more I realize how fast time flies. I want it to stop... I am at peace with Me getting older and fatter and crankier. However, I want my kids to park it for awhile, I want my flowers to stay in bloom, I want my house to stay clean, my dishes to stay done, laundry clean, my hair to stay colored with out dark roots, my "to do" list to stay crossed off, my Mt. Dew to stay full, and the dog poo to stay raked.
What spurred these thoughts was the Double Birthday of Paige, and Trey. When Paige asked for panties on her Birthday I was sickened. She is my last baby. I will only get to change diapers, make bottles, and rock her for a little longer then poof, that time is gone. I missed many of those years with Trey when I was working and Lee was in school. I want them back! I want my Tulips in Bloom again, I want Paige to not know how to say "Shut Up" and "Go away" (Thanks Shani) I want my old Volkswagon Bug, I want to go camping with Grampie in his red truck and my "luvvie", I want to live in trailer in Oracle and have a great garden and mostly right now I want my babies back and my Mt. Dew full.

Well at least your Mt. Dew can be full again. I like the part on Kung Fo Panda where Oog-way says something along the lines of... yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift - that is why we call it the present. Did you see the association there or did that just come of uber random?!

When you figure out how to un-teach a kid to say "shut up" will you please let me know???
