From the apron pocket...

Just a quick tidbit I wanted to share.  When everything seems crazy, and your completely exhausted and there are a million more things to do just remember, these encouraging words I heard the other day.
"The days are long but the years are short"  so lets try to "Enjoy the Journey"

Todays Apron...

Tornado cleanup day!  Today must be a short quick note, for I have put on my apron.... My tornado clean up apron. Obviously while we were away a massive tornado swept through this house at full speed, strewing laundry all over the bathroom, floor, the bedroom floors, and yes there is even some in the kitchen floor. It flooded the sink with dishes,  and covered the floor in what appears to be crumbs(no idea where they came from) It is truly a disaster! So for now I must go.  What will tomorrows apron be?.......

Todays Apron...

Today's Apron, is one of inspiration.  I have been wanting to start my blogging journey for quite some time, but as always a moms work is never done. I recently gave birth to princess number 3. The older girls, Charity(7) & Lilly (4) had a daddy day today, spending the day outside with dad, which left little Aubree Joy and I the day to ourselves. At this point in her life Aubree doesn't require much of me.  As long as I am here to feed her, change her, and rock her, she is as happy as a clam.  So whats a mom to do with all this free time,( in between nursing sessions, and pooping marathons)  Well I put on my apron. I did some laundry,blahh. Then I made some lunch,   then swept the floor. (I am a very messy cook.)   As I was wearing my apron around I started thinking about all the different things that I use my apron for. It's been a cooking apron, baking apron, gardening apron. It's been used for craft projects and sewing, laundry and everything in between. Yeah I could have a separate one for each occasion, but I am perfectly contented with my special little apron.  It's like us moms, it too must take on different roles at different times to meet the needs of our families.  It's somewhat magical... So today as I was wearing mine, It became an inspiration apron, and led me to finally accomplishing this goal.  So, here it is the beging of a new journey. What will tomorrows apron be...
