Did you know?

Did you know that I have a savior that loves me SO much he laid his life down for mine?  I love Easter for that very reason.  We had a really great day really focusing on Jesus and his sacrifice.  No Easter egg hunt. {GASP!} I know....it wasn't intentional, it just wasn't a priority.  We didn't even dye Easter eggs until yesterday!  Its a delicate balance trying NOT to focus on the "commercialized" part of Easter and really trying to teach the wee ones why we celebrate Easter. 

Did you know that I have some really amazing people in my life that I love SO much?  We were very fortunate to spend Easter with "family" that I haven't seen in a very long time.  I am also grateful for amazing friends!  

Did you know that I am So grateful to be able to stay home and raise my family?  Chase works so hard to make this an easy option for us! I am so blessed!

Did you know that Chase is the repo-man?  He thinks he has died and gone to heaven.  He is getting paid to ride horses and steal cars....seriously!  It is the perfect job to fill in the gaps during slow training months.  If ya ever need a good laugh, just give me a ring. I've got some really awesome/funny/scary stories....whatever you're in the mood for!

Did you know I have a major addiction to Pinterest? Its amazing!  If you know what I'm talking about, enough said. But if you don't, you really should go to Pinterest.com and go through the hassle of requesting an invite and start browsing/pinning.

Did you know that as I am writing this, Ridge said to me, {out of the blue, while playing Legos by himself}"Mom, I love you to the moon and back a thousand-hundred billion times!" Is there anything better?

Did you know that I lost twin little girls that would be 7 next month?  How awesome it will be to be reunited with them one day!  I have been working on a shadow-box for the few little items I have to remember them by.  I am not sure why it has taken me almost 7 years to be able to complete this project, but look for the finished product in a future post!

Did you know that Noah's potty training successes have been on a bit of a hiatus lately? For whatever reason, the last week he hasn't wanted to go poopy in the potty.  Ask me if I care? Nope! Because...........................

Did you know there was a point in his tiny, fragile life that he couldn't poop AT ALL?  So am I grateful that he is pooping? Even in his pants?? YUP :)

Did you know I should probably wait to post this until morning so I can make sure I am actually making any sense? Am I going to? Nope.
