I am trying to remind myself to look at the bright side, and in reality, my life is very bright. But, there is some stress and sadness that leaks through some days. We had a great time with friends last night, but for me, the knowledge that my relationship is changing so dramatically is bringing the pleasure down a notch. And, combined with the stress of trying to finish homework, clean house, and play with my kids, all in the same, always too short weekend is turning out to be a bummer. But, the kids keep me laughing (mostly) and I don't have a lot of homework (and none of it is difficult), and the house isn't too messy, so.... I will now shut my face, stop whining, and get back to it, and with a smile...

thankful that my kids rock so hard...
the morning routine is really going well. everything runs a little earlier for the kids than last semester, but, they are all adjusting fine. taylor helps fix breakfast, and lunch for everyone, and can even brush Jewel's hair in a pinch. he made scrambled eggs for us this morning. everyone was dressed and ready by 6:30, they ate (i forgot) and we were out the door by 7:05. perfect. tomorrow he wants to make his famous whole grain pancakes for us. the routine is made better by all the cute things that the little ones say. jewel asked me, "can you make my pretty?" and patted her head. "do you want a ponytail?" "Yes!" so we both had matching yoga pants and t shirts and ponytails today. trevor started charming his preschool teacher the minute we got there with his very overused knock knock joke. (the one where they say boohoo and he says, "what are you crying about it for?" not exactly correct, but that is how he says it.) now, chemistry.
