Summer!!!

It's summer and BOY IS IT HOT!!!

Still dieting and have lost 1 pound! I figure losing only one is better than gaining any! Also, it is becoming easier to decide what I would rather waste my calories on. I am not giving up anything completely. For example, I LOVE potato chips. Therefore, when I want some, I eat a few! Ice Cream, I let that be a treat at the end of the week. By not completely eliminating foods, it is easier. I also drank a Mello Yello yesterday! It was worth all 6 points!!! It was a treat. HEHE!

Anyway, this past week, Anna Dove and I went to my parents to help shuck, silk, cut, and freeze corn. Now when I say this, I mean we had between 35 and 40 DOZEN ears of corn to take care of! Wow! My parents don't do things small! Anna Dove had a great time. I have a picture of her shucking an ear of corn. But more than that, she enjoyed sitting in a foot tub full of COLD water! It was so hot outside that my dad filled up the tub and let her get in! It was really cute!

This week has not been too interesting! I am missing my girls from work, but not bad enough to be ready to go back to work.

I have also been reminded while spending time with Anna Dove, how blessed I am to have a healthy child. Sometimes in day to day life you forget what a true blessing your child's health is until you see or hear of a child that is not well. I am so very thankful that I was chosen to be the parent of this wonderful, healthy, vibrant, and LOUD little monkey!


Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;Therefore my heart greatly rejoices,And with my song I will praise Him.
