I would just like to thank Hallie for in a round about way, tagging me. I have had the abcs going on in my head for the past 24 hours and thought i need to get them out of my head before it explodes! Since i have been the poster child for an instant family, i decided to do my abc’s on just that….
A= “Adjusting” The tip of the iceberg, not only have i moved in with the love of my life, i also have moved in with his 11 year old son. Not the way we planned it, but God has a crazy sense of humor!
B=”Boy things” I am beginning to think this phrase is a catch all of sorts…one of those that describes the undescribable.
C=”Catch” i have played more catch in the past two months then i did my whole year of college, and that was playing on the softball team…
D=”Detention” something nick is going to learn is not ACCEPTABLE!!!
E=”Expecting” that nine month period that you can use to mentally prepare to bring a child into the world…the nine month period that i missed out on!
F=”Family”as odd as the situation is, we are a family
G=”G@#$^&$#@#$%^%&(*%!” phrases that are causing bleeding tounges when its homework time.
H=”Hawiian Bathroom Spray” which apperently is more fun to just spray in excess then to use for what its intended to be used for…
I= “Individual” no more
J= “Just Jen” my response to anything, i am not great i am just jen!
K=”Kitchen” all of a sudden i spend more time in this room that has been so foreign for so long, and my deep dark secret is i kinda like it!
L= “Love” something all children need unconditionally
M=”Mind Boggling” that an 11 year old can repeat stats on any athlete that was discussed on ESPN yet hates math?
N=”Numb” my mind after hearing the ESPN stats
O=”Open” i am open for any suggestions to dealing with ADHD
P=”Peacefull” the feeling i get inside when i get a genuine hug and a show of gratitude from any of the boys
Q= “Quiet” dont remember what that sounds like…
R=”Rest” something from my distant past
S=”Saithood” something all parents should be nominated for…well not all parents, at least the ones who make an effort or well at least mine because i know i wasnt easy!
T=”Tag” a great way to start a blog
U=”Unbelivable” the amount of work a family takes! not that i am complaining!
V=”Very Cool” to see someones self confidence grow
W=”Wish” only the best for my little family
X=”X-tra Credit” something all teachers should offer!
Y=”Youth” something that i am loosing but gaining all at the same time
Z=”Zorse” i had to explain what one of those was!
What’s a Zorse??
LOL at your boy knowing player stats but hates maths. Selective learning perhaps?? Maybe there’s a way to make math more fun for him.
Thanks for visiting my blog. Job search is coming along.
Take Care

I loving having a house full of boys. When you add them one at a time, you don’t notice the testosterone quite so much…maybe it is a little bit like slowly boiling that frog? 😉
I’m glad I read this =) I feel like I “know,” you a bit better now.
