So far this summer

Ava's sleep over, thinking about it still puts a smile on my face.  I heard more "this is the best day ever" a hundred times.  There were little girls running around with freshly painted nails, crazy hairdos and drawn on tattoos (best idea ever!).  We were surrounded by barbies and littlest petshops.  It was a late night and really early morning of giggling as Soots the cat woke everyone up before the sun.  I can't wait to do it again!

Our summer has been busy like most years, but Ant has been away so far :(
His new job has him training in Miami Florida. Which is nice for him, but he is desperately miss these crazy kids of ours and I don't blame him. 

I was however able to go for a little visit, and did I ever need it.  When ever I get away for a bit I realize just how much of me goes to my kids.  This is great and I feel like a great mom, I do however miss me sometimes.  The free and incredibly lofty Jen.  The things I can not afford to be while I'm needed so much of the time. So when I got to kick off my shoes and look into the sun, walk for miles on a rain stormy beach and spend time just watching the world around me I totally soaked it up.

I will be glad when I have my man back, so we can have some more fun with the kids this summer :)
