Lost!!

I lost Will in Walmart the other day. It was terrible. I lost Drake at Sea World, but that was only for like 1 min, and I found him going to the life guard to say he was lost as I was going to the life guard to say I lost him. That was a terrifing moment too, but losing Will was the longest 10 mins of my life....Here's the story, so Will sees a friend and wants to go say hi. I say no, stay with us. So we walk a little further, I turn a corner to look at something and turn around and Will is gone. He went to find his friend, and when he came back to where we were he started wondering in the opposite direction because he didn't know where we went. So I'm running up and down the aisle we turned off of (one of the main aisles) and calling him, and freaking out....I see a Walmart employee and tell them what has happened and they call Code Adam. I'm still freaking and running up and down the aisle. Then Taylor says mom, they're cancelling the Code Adam, and I'm freaking still... up and down pacing, when they come find me, and take me to Will (he was in the jewelry department) I can't say Thank you enough, I want to just hug all the Walmart people! But instead I'm bawling holding my bawling boy...He kept saying I thought you were going to leave without me. As we are finally walking/shopping again, he kept saying this. I stopped in the store and looked him in the eye and told him, I would camp out there before I ever left that store without you to make him understand. He got it.

I've been feeling lost lately. Lonely really. I don't get it. I guess it's the weather? I always wondered how someone could feel so lonely when so many people surround them. But now it happens to me more than it used to and well I really still don't get how I can feel so lonely/down when I have so many people surrounding me. I think it has to do with being liked and I feel really unliked right now. And left out. I know it's not true...But Max's sermons have really helped lately...I will get through this, it won't be easy, it won't be painless....and he brings me through these times for a reason...

Countdown

So Will lost his first tooth!! He's so excited. The tooth fairy left him a dollar and a dollar gold coin. He remembered that is 200 pennies so he keeps saying I have $200 dollars!!! Instead of cents. It's too cute.
So as fast as this year has started, I am already realizing Daphne is almost a year old!!!
In 7 weeks she will turn one.
In about 15 weeks I will have an first grader, second grader, and a SIXTH grader....oh my!!!
Life has started going at race car speed! I remember being 15 and wondering what it all would be like at this age. Then it felt like the years never ended. Now I wish they would slow down!! =)

Super Bowl Fun!!

We weren't planning on watching the Super Bowl. I had set the TIVO and we were just going to maybe start it late so we could fast forward though the game and just watch the commercials.  We aren't a big football family. Well, any sport really, but we do enjoy a good game. So Jeremy started cooking the chili and I was just going to watch a little bit and pause it, let some time run so I could click through the game to the next commercial set. Then Taylor started talking about how she was going to rout for the Patriots because PawPaw said they were favored to win. I wanted the Giants to win. Soo... Then we started betting, Jeremy joined in and that was that...we had to watch the game!! We started out with a $10 bet. Which turned into a clean the kitchen bet!! I'm so glad the Giants pulled back up there at the end!!! ;)
The halftime show was pretty awesome too!! Madonna's still got it!! A little slower and she lost her footing at one point, but she played it off very well. It was a fun halftime.
The commercials were great too. My favorites were M&M's, the yogurt one with John Stamos, Ferris Buller (Matthew Broderick playing hokey), the vampire party, Elton John Pepsi and The Voice with Betty White!
What were your favorites??
