Thoughts

It's been a long while since I last posted anything. Life has been hectic and crazy, more than usual. I'm just trying to keep up with it all.

Todd and Kayden just returned from a trip to Utah. It was just the two of them and Todd's mother, so Bryce and I sported some quality time together. Since my mother in law was gone - who watches the kids during the day - Bryce stayed with a friend during the day and she was FABULOUS!! It's the 1st time I have EVER had to leave one of my kids with someone other than family. I was nervous, and not because of who I left him with, but because I didn't know how Bryce would do, if he would cause too much trouble, or make it difficult for her to get things done, if we were imposing, etc. Well, it went great. I felt so confident in her abilities that I didn't have to worry throughout the day and when I went to pick him up at the end of the day, he was all smiles and happy as a clam.

It's strange, Kayden and Todd were only gone 4 days, but I have noticed that Kayden is a little different (aside from the fact that Todd buzzed his hair without saying anything/asking me). I think it's moreso how Kayden speaks more than anything, I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's something different about him. And it all happened in a short 4 days! Whatever it may be, I'm sure glad to have my boys back! Life just isn't the same without them and it's all better when we're all together as a family. It may be chaotic and hectic, but that's how we function and it works for us. It makes us all happy to be together and that's what's most important.
