Celebrate

Today Wyatt asked me if it was April 22nd? He pronounced it "twenty tooth"!

All of the flowering trees around here are in full bloom. Sam is so impressed with them. He comments every time that we drive somewhere. "Mom, look at those bootiful trees!" Then yesterday he asked me "how they were so puffy? Was it magic?"


Today the kids used the new ipad to video call Grandpa on Skype without me knowing about it. I was fixing lunch in the kitchen when suddenly I heard my Dad's voice in the family room! That was a surprise! That ipad sure is kid friendly!

I can not believe that I am writing this, but I have parted ways with my caffeine habit. I gave up caffeine on Monday as part of my conversion to LDS (kidding). No coffee and no diet coke!! I have been addicted to caffeine since college. I have woken up to a Diet Coke every morning for the last 20 years!!!!! Shocking I know! So I expected the withdraw to be terrible. Monday was rough! I had a persistent headache and virtually no energy. But I was fine on Tuesday and today I think that I have completely recovered from the energy plunge. That's me turning over a new leaf for spring!
