Random, because I really have no time for it to make any sense.

I should not be blogging at 11:00 at night when I'm super tired but I need to post something!

I miss my friend. She is one of the best friends I've ever had. And we never talk anymore. She lives in Sylvan Lake and I'm sure she has a million new friends, because she's like that (and I am just not) but I miss her and it's making me cry. Sometimes you can have people all around and still feel lonely.

(Here's a super old one of us with Nick. The only picture of us I could find, actually!)

Life is good. Not that there's anything special about it. It's just that everything that meets my eyes in a day makes me feel happy and fulfilled. I don't feel like I could ask for anything more. Have you ever heard this song? You should listen to it. It reminds me of my family.

I'm just falling more in love every day with this little girl:

 Because of things like this:

See the little pony and the zu-zu pet? A place for everyone at the picnic. She no longer wants to be a princess. Nope-nope. She is either Ninja-girl, Supergirl or Marion (from Indiana Jones). Princesses are "scared". It's okay, I never really liked Disney princesses either. Thank goodness she still loves to watch ballet and when I show her Swan Lake on youtube she's mesmerized. I think you can probably guess the source of this change. I caught an example on video:

 I'm so busy with these three. I mean seriously, I'm going going going alllllll the time. It's good for me. Most days I get in: three square meals, a shower, a workout, an outing, scriptures and prayer and a bit of housework. I also read to the kids before bed and try to play at least a little every day.

Gosh I am lucky. I say lucky because, uhm, I mean it. That's all I'm going to say.

And I've basically lost my husband to snowboarding. It makes him happy and that makes me happy.

Now I'm stressing out because I have SOOOOO much to do tomorrow! And it's 11:30! And I have to be up by 5:30 or it's not going to happen!
