My second Mother's Day was pretty spectacular. We spent a very low-key morning together, going for a wagon ride and just soaking in the beautiful day. I was able to catch a nice nap, play with my horse and was treated to a FABULOUS movie, followed up with a home-cooked BBQ. Doesn't get much better than that!
Stylin' in his new shades:
His current favourite toy(yes I mean the box, though the hat is a close second):
Where's Your Tummy? (He even pushes it out for better effect.)
Better than a Lazy-Boy!
And just for giggles, a mother's day ride:
Every time I open the internet my homepage is this blog. I would like to write more often, but find myself in too much of a fog. I stumble through my days, booking enjoyable things like work, horse time, friend time, etc. Yet I still find myself struggling to FEEL my days... Little indicators of stress are popping up on my physical self like psoriasis, which I haven't seen since I left my prior ill-fitting career. I step over house clutter that would never have even been allowed a foothold. Craziest yet - I allow the poor hubby to do things that I would NOT have let out of my specific hands-on control. He's certainly messing up laundry out of desperation and I can't be bothered to care. This is going to be the year of over-hauling my health. I AM going to re-establish the sharp clarity my type-A self thrives on. I AM going to wake up...
You and Scotch look great together! I'm glad I stumbled upon your blog and that your little man is doing well. Stay strong, Dorie
ReplyDeleteHey stepping over clutter can be considered exercise and that is healthy. We did it until the kids left home. Then he told me to get a cleaning lady. OK twist my arm. It doesn't hurt a husband to throw in a load of laundry either. Even if it isn't perfect remember to tell him thanks for doing it. This phase of your lives will fly by and you will look back and wonder how it happened so quickly.
ReplyDeleteLove Ya,

Hailie, we're always thinking of you guys.
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing the pics of Kaleb playing 'fetch' with the dawg! Enjoy the busyness of life, and hold no guilt in the dusty bits left behind.
I strongly second Garoleen's laundry suggestion!
Love

Understandable about Scotch, you gotta have a horse that's a perfect fit for you and your family. Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate it. I'm sure you'll find him a great home and a perfect new horse. I'm so glad your little guy is on the mend.
