I know, I know, it’s
been FOR—EVER since I last posted. Life
seems to do that to ya. I cannot believe that we are in MAY already.
Where has 2013 gone???? I don’t
know for sure but I feel like I have been crazy busy since New Years.
Life in a military family
is ALWAYS busy! But then you add “normal”
everyday stuff on top of that- WOW! Some
days, I am just trying to keep my head ABOVE water!
Well, let me catch
up since New Years. “Not that is too long, let me sum up” (name the movie) I am
a BAD mom and missed blogging about my 2 oldest girls turning ANOTHER year
older! My oldest daughter turned 15! And my
second daughter turned 13!
Seriously, I am NOT
ready for these teenage years. HOLY COW!
They are both totally “into” 1 Direction *the music group* Sydney (the 13 yr
old) LOVES to draw, paint and read.
Haylee (the 15 yr old) loves to listen to music. And that is about it. Of
course she IS a teenager! I am REALLY glad they aren't boy crazy.... YET!
Shortly before
Spring Break, Sydney was accepted to Endeavor Charter Academy (the charter
school Kelsee – my 9 yr old- goes to) so Sydney switched schools. The transition was a little hard. She felt
VERY behind but has done amazing!
Kelsee, has gotten
HIGH Honor Roll for 3 quarters so far and it looks like she will be getting it
AGAIN for the last quarter J She has worked so hard this year and her teacher is AMAZING!
Haylee has REALLY
struggled with HomeSchool this year. She
was actually DROPPED from the 1st semester due to her grades. She promised she would do better and bring
all her grades up. So after a lot of
heart to heart talks and prayer, I kept her in the K12 program. It isn’t
looking too good for her this semester either.
I think the only class she is passing is Spanish (weird)
My “baby girl” was
accepted to Young 5’s (it’s basically Kindergarten for the younger 5 year
olds) she will start in the fall. She is pretty excited about it.
Well, School is just
about over… Last day is June 12th. The girls can’t wait. (and neither can I….. I am looking forward to
NOT waking up at 5:30am)
So my marine left
AGAIN to go to ANOTHER course…. Not quite sure what the name of this one
is. I just know it’s the last “check in
the box” for promotion. He has been gone
since this past Sunday. He will be in Quantico
until almost the end of June. I talked to him today. He said the school is
going good. They are in smalls groups of
about 8 1st Sgts. Funny thing is, in all the class the 1 guy that is
also a member of the church, is in his group. He also works at the I and I
station in Las Vegas, and is part of the “saints and sinners” battalion from
Vegas/ Salt Lake.
So, by the time my
marine gets back from Quantico, the girls and I will be out in California for
the summer. We are all so looking
forward to getting OUT of Michigan and having a change of scenery. My marine actually said Saturday before he
left, he is afraid we won’t come back. He said he thinks we’ll find a house in
Utah when we go out there. Who knows???? Maybe we will. Lol
So now that I have
jumped all around….. I think I will end this post. I have said before that I
will try to be better at posting and that hasn’t happened. So I won’t say that
again. I will just say, until next time!
