Don't Wake The Kids

I'm a Supermom and so are you!

Weekly Update

May22

I can’t believe I’ve been away from my blog for so long. We’ve been busy busy. First there was Mother’s Day. I got two naps that day, and a Flip camera. Now I can add video to my blog!

From then on, it was Teacher’s Appreciation Week, PTO meeting, Field Days, hiring a new employee at work, Summer Camp registration, and the dreaded stomach flu. Nothing can prepare you for the startling sound of your kid puking in his sheets. My poor washing machine.

On Jumpshot’s recommendation, I started reading the Percy Jackson and the Olympian’s series. It’s pretty good. In fact I can’t believe how much I got sucked in. Currently I’m reading The  7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens in preparation of the trials and tribulations of 6th grade. Maybe it’ll help me too. I have some habits I acquired as a teenager that I could change.

So summer’s officially begun. The temperatures are creeping in the mid-90’s, so the kids played in the water hoses all day. Our a/c hasn’t stopped all day.

In the spirit of catching you up on all my projects, here’s my inaugural video.

I made scrapbooks for our awesome Kindergarten teachers. The video is me flipping through the books for you. Enjoy!

    You’re so sweet.

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.
