Busted...

Complicated

That's what everything seems to be these days - complicated.  From major household purchases, to getting the lawn mower going for the year to starting the FET process for our final transfer...nothing has been easy or gone even remotely smoothly this year.  I am bit throwing a pity party, for I know that there are people with true troubles that take more than patience and persistence to fix...but it doesn't make it any less frustrating.

On a more positive note, Lincoln has decided that he loves to pass out hugs and kisses.  He is so stinking cute when he gives hugs-he "pats" your back while he's hugging you.  I suppose because that's what people do to him.  Precious.  I ha a late meeting after school yesterday and didn't get home until around 7:30...he must have missed me because I got LOTS of hugs and kisses last night. And I cherished every single one.

Feeling Emotional

For whatever reason, I've been super emotional the last few days.  I've teared up more times than I can count and J thought I'd lost my mind when I choked back what I could (and carefully wiped away what escaped) when we witnessed the local Child Advocacy Center's "Teddy Bear Run" while running errands today.  (It's a motorcycle ride where all of the riders carry a teddy bear.  The bears are later donated to be distributed to children who have been victims of abuse.). I guess just thinking about the sick, cruel people who could ever harm a child just got to me.  

Yesterday, I was watching Lincoln play and just burst into tears.  Not sure why...u just know I haven't felt this out-of-control of my emotions since we had to leave Jax at home the summer I was pregnant with Lincoln.  (No, I'm not pregnant.) I've gotta get a grip!
