Daylight through the trees
It was a perfect morning for a run in the woods. I pulled myself out of bed at 5:30 this morning to sneak out for a run before the kids were awake. It was about 70 degrees with little to no humidity - perfect. As I ran along the trail I saw a few deer and the sun was slowly coming up, it eventually peered through the trees shining its light along the trail which made a beautiful picture. I was so happy to be out in the peacefulness. Andre has been struggling since Erich left from his visit at Father's Day, he will not go to sleep without a huge fight. He is continually asking "When we are moving to Kentucky with Daddy"? or "Where is Daddy"? The daylight through the trees in my life is that in about 16 days we will all be together again in one house!

Thawing out
It has been awhile since I last wrote. It seems by the time I get the kids to bed, things straightenedup and put away, tie up loose ends from my work day, it is late, to late to write anything and make sense. Tonight I cannot sleep. I am concerned about my youngest brother, so I sit and type hoping it will help me relieve my worries. I pray he gets through his struggle. I must give it to God.
I updated the kids blog first, which is fun. We are enjoying the warm weather, it may be hot and humid, but I think we are still thawing out from our Michigan winter so it feels good. The days have gone by so fast. This week Grace has had swim lessons every morning, so I get them breakfast, dressed, lubed up and ready to head out the door with Suzanne. I grab one more cup of coffee and head back to work. It is quite the life!
Grace has really been acting out the past few days, as I talked to her last night about it she said
"it is just really hard being apart from daddy". I agree it is hard, yet we have a great set up here, and I am so thankful for Pete and Suzanne's support and help. We are counting down the days until Erich comes over to visit this weekend. Andre is going with the flow, as long as he has his cars and his sister to hang out with he is "good". The humidity and heat wipes him out -- - he takes a few laps on the deck with his tricycle then heads in and says he is ready to go to bed.
The writing has helped me. . I am now ready to fall asleep.
Good night!
