So I have been feeling guilty lately. Not for "misbehaving" or "
naughtiness", but for not being able to be around as much for my kids. I feel like I have something or somewhere to go every night of the week. I am missing out on the little things, which at first wasn't so bad (aka dinner, putting them to bed,homework) but now I feel out of the loop with it all. I am the mom, I should have more control over these things. Alas work and church callings has put me into a little bit of an overload with afternoons and evenings. For the past month I have had one night during the week to actually be at home with the family, with nothing else to do but be together all night! I think the guilt comes in more when my kids ask if I have to go to work today, and when I reply yes, they get very very sad. I guess for
awhile there I didn't realize that I really was gone as much as I was. I was just reflecting on the past month, and the hectic mess I felt it has been. At least I have a fabulous husband who is the one who gets them while I am gone. Thank goodness for that, otherwise that would have opened a whole other can of worms!
Hopefully things will calm down, and I can spend a little more time at home and less away. I am working towards 2 nights during the week to actually be able to be all together as a family. At least I have a job in these crummy times, and the blessings will come in heaven for being gone every wed night for mutual! thanks for letting me vent that out!, it helps.
Nothing overly important about these photos, just thought they were cute.

Landon has become so strong! He can finally sit in his saucer without a blanket around him to hold him up! He can even move himself from side to side and grab at most of the toys....Some days I feel like he is so much older than a 4 month old.
