It's simply amazing at how fast time passes. I can not believe it's been two weeks since I last posted. It has been a busy few weeks. The weather is still going back and forth between early cool spring and a warm sunny spring. If we see warm temps it's usually for one day and with 50 MPH winds. Then it's back to cloudy cool days. I've mowed the yard two times and was cold on both days. But it's still fun to know that warmer days are just around the corner.
T-Bone enjoying the green grass!
Terra is beautiful this time of year!!!
The calf is happy now that he is turned out in the pasture with lots of fresh green grass. He kept getting out and going onto the neighbors land and then would just casually walk back into the front yard. We discovered where he was getting out. So far so good.
The children come home everyday from school and let me know how many (or few) days they have left until school is out. I have tons of activities planned for the summer to keep everyone busy. They are finishing up swimming lessons. I am amazed at Bernadette. She is my little fish. And Jerome is right behind her.
Bern after swim lessons
Right now I spend my days cleaning and then playing with Jerome. He is very well known at the YMCA. They like to see what he is going to wear each day. He goes back and forth in between cowboy, football player, rugby player, or just ole Jerome. You never know what you are going to get.
As a cowboy
As a COOL cowboy. This is at the Y after one of his play days.
On the other days that I don't go work out and if it is sunny and warm we sit outside together reading books or working in the yard. I am trying to enjoy each moment I have left with him before he starts school next year. I am happy for him so that he can have friends and learn and play but I am sad that he will be gone. We have good times together. I feel more like a grandmother with him sometimes.
David and I are preparing for a busy month ahead. We had company from Arkansas last weekend. In the coming weeks we will have several people staying with us or just visiting during ordination weekend. That is always the highlight of our year!!! And the week after that we will host the seminarian party. We continue to dodge bad weather and pray that it stays far away. May is the busiest month for tornadoes in Nebraska
.
Mothers Day and Bernadette's birthday share the same date this year so we will have a big celebration. We will be sharing that day with another family. Should be a fun day.
