It was a beautiful 72 degrees here today in Kansas. Can you believe that? 72 degrees in February? I am loving it! I hope it doesn't make our wheat come out of dormancy though and then have a huge winter storm and damage it. Life of a farmer..ugh.
Anyhow..after Trevor got out of school today at noon we drove about 30 miles from home to a wonderful and fun park to have a picnic lunch and play the afternoon away! My mom drove up and went along with us. It was such a fun and beautiful day. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the day. We were all tired after playing non-stop for over three hours on the playground. We swung, we slid, we played chase, we climbed. Drove a pretend train, danced on the amphitheater stage and walked along the river bridge. What a fun way to spend a nice winter afternoon. We didn't get any resistance at bedtime tonight. I think they were thoroughly worn out, as am I!
I have officially signed up for college and have to go and take my Accuplacer and Asset tests for English and Math next Friday to see where to place me in English and Math classes. I am kinda nervous about taking them, after all it will be Friday the 13th, I am hoping it will be a lucky day for me! I have to take the tests because it has been 20yrs since I graduated high school and been almost that long since I have cracked open any kind of text book. Yikes! I will start classes online this summer. I am excited!
Trevor has started reading, he had been doing some here and there, but this week he actually sat down and read me an entire easy reader book by himself! I am so proud of my 5yr old boy!!! I am continually amazed at the milestones my kids reach. It is very hard for me not to think of them as my little babies. I guess whether I want it or not they are growing up way to fast! I am so blessed to be a mother and have these little angels in my life! Truly blessed!
Totally random here, I am so in love with the song by The Fray, "You found me" I also love the song "How to Save a Life" great stuff! What do you think of them?
*side note, don't ask me why Trevor insisted on wearing a stocking cap in 70 degree weather, but he did. That's just him. Gotta love the kid.
