cost of kids

Recently I was looking at the big sales that will be happening this weekend, I thought about how nice it would be to have a new recliner... The cost, I thought, I could do maybe. Then I went to the sporting goods store for a really good sale on shoes for my kids and a swimming suit for my daughter and some hiking boots for 2 kids for their summer trek, and new running shoes for the missionary. The next thing I knew all the money for the recliner was gone. As I thought about it the recliner would last a lot longer than the shoes and kid supplies, but it isn't a living thing. I will not need the recliner. The kids will need the shoes to help them as they grow and develop, they will need the life experience they can have while using their shoes. The society we live in would consider me to be a negligent parent if I didn't have shoes for my children. I don't need children's services harassing me, so the shoes win, and the recliner will float back into the back of my thought processes for another time. another sale. another life. For now I need to take care of my children, and help them succeed..."Dream are for Rookies Kid"

Where have I been?

Okay so I was missing in the blogging world. Sorry I hope to work with updating the photos soon. I was stressed with things needed to get my son off on his mission, and with looking for a new Realtor for the Condo in Provo. Still asn't sold yet...It is down to $127,190. The boy was deposited at the MTC on Wednesday and we had 4 concerts that evening. The next night we had the HS Choir concert. Tonight the man and I ran away on a date to a AAA baseball game... Fun Stuff! Monday Myra will graduate from 8th grade!
