Don't Wake The Kids

I'm a Supermom and so are you!

Weekly Update

April24

The last two weeks have left me with whiplash from all its ups and downs.

First, let’s get the downs out of the way. I lost two beloved family members, my Great-Aunt Tootie and my Uncle Norman. They were both lovely people, and they will be surely missed.

We celebrated some milestones as well. Manchild has learned to spell his name, and I learned he can recognize a lot of letters. Diva is reading on her own, and I think we’re turning a corner on those pesky phonograms that seem to give her trouble.

055 Finally, Jumpshot went on a retreat with his class. It was the longest he’s ever been from home. He did get homesick, but he did enjoy himself. It was like a little hole in our family while he was away. Manchild kept asking for him. Reunited, Diva immediately began irritating him, and Manchild ran up to hug him. Then the wrestling commenced. You’d thought they were a pack of wild puppies so happy to see each other.

I’ve got a lot of projects in the works. The PTO fundraiser is going great. Teacher’s Appreciation Week and Mother’s Day are right around the corner. And we’re spending some quality time with the family today.

Have a great weekend!

Don’t Wake the Kids is a blog featuring Sally and sometimes James, a husband and wife team, talking about their life – the good, the bad, and the ugly.  Together, they will put their life on display, imperfections and all, with the hope that you will find it uplifting, entertaining, and amusing.

About Sally

For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be a mother. God blessed me with three wonderful children, who keep me going. My husband and I have been married for 12 years, and he’s my best friend.

I work full-time outside of the home and try to volunteer as much as I can at my children’s school. I love to bake and accidentally found out about cakepops, and I can’t stop making them. I love to scrapbook, when I find the time. I also like to crochet, but I’ve only made scarves. I use it to pass the time while waiting at the doctor’s office or practice or for meetings to start.

I try to have it all, and I hope my blog lends support to other moms who mess up, want to pull out their hair, but who wouldn’t want to trade their lives for anything – just like me.

People ask me how do I do it all. I am always flattered by this, and my answer is always the same – I don’t sleep. I only get a lot done after everyone falls asleep. James came up with the name of our blog Don’t Wake The Kids because of my nocturnal nature.
