2. Ted went to Chile to visit his parents and I lost my mind after being alone with three kids for a week.
3. I gave up sugar a month ago and can't find anything happy to write about since then. Our St. Patty's Day rainbow cake was my farewell to dessert. I don't miss fruity sweets, but I feel like I lost a dear friend when I think about the chocolate that I'm missing in my life. I must admit I made one exception when eating the homemade chocolate chip cookies a student made me for Teacher's Appreciation Day. I felt like it was part of my job as her teacher to eat them...
4. I'm potty training Madeline--if this is something that is going smoothly in your house, I'd be happy to trade you toddlers. I feel like my life revolves around washing laundry and cleaning carpets. Thank goodness girls go to the bathroom in pairs so I don't have to always be the one to drag her to the potty.
5. I'm getting my picture fix with the 13 scrapbooks I'm scrambling to complete for my pre-K class. I can't believe they're on their way to kindergarten--the year has flown by!

Glad you're back! Looks like you've benn busy. keep up the good work. Or slow down and take it easy, which ever sounds better to you:)
Ever since you told me you were on a sugarfree diet, I've entered a state of mourning and eaten more chocolate than ever in your behalf. Just think of chocolate as as antioxidant, and how much more healthy you'll be as a result of eating a bit now and then!
The photo of the two girls is worth a million dollars--the things kids to do bond!
And I love the picture of you and your little class. We so often talk about them over the phone, but to see you with them is wonderful. Makes me realize that I really need to take more pictures of me and my students together. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you're back in the blogging world! Good for you giving up sugar. I've gone through phases where I've tried to reduce (notice I did NOT say eliminate--that's never happened) the amount of sugar I eat, and it's always been torture at first, but then my body gets used to it and almost feels sick when I do eat sugar. That's why I've decided to maintain consistently high levels of sugar intake so that I won't have to face that difficult transition back to the sugar-loving world. Good luck! I'm sure you can do it.
Potty training isn't going well at our house either. Good luck to you.
Hmm. Giving up sugar. That would be the sure way to get me to eat sugar. Hope it works for you!

I loved reading about your family especially the potty training bit. Don't you think the girls will love having that picture of them on the potty at their wedding? Becky's daughter got pretty creative with her diaper contents such as taking out items and putting them down the vents, putting the vent lids back on, and putting her diaper back on. They couldn't figure out why the room was so stinky. Good luck!
