My how they have grown

I came across this picture the other day and it made me wonder where the time has gone. This is Wyatt, Natalie and Sam at the San Diego zoo when he was 3 years old. Christina their mom and I still are good friends but the kids it so much, they have grown up, go to different schools and are busy. The one thing they have in common still is they all are on their school robotics team. Next week Wyatt's team and the girls team will be sharing a coach bus up to San Jose for the regional competition up there. Christina an I are hoping to get a picture of them together again.
Wish us moms good luck.

Day to relax

Today was the first Sunday since October I did not have to do anything, it was so nice. After a pedicure I walked do to Swamis and snapped some fun photos. It was a nice relaxing day

Heaviness

I guess I hadn't noticed the weight of my giant tote purse, not until one of the students in the engineering lab had to pass it to me the other day and made a comment.
I am sure I hadn't noticed the weight because it's like your child, you begin carrying it around as a baby and by the time they are 40 pounds you don't notice because you have been carrying them around since thy were 7 pounds. After the heaviness of my purse was pointed out to me I noticed it, I mean really noticed it.
I decided three days later that I needed to go to coin start and empty the change that had made the bottom of my. At their home. I knew there was a lot and did not want to roll it. After scooping and picking all the change out of the bottom my bag I had $76.04 worth of change that I had been toting around.
My bag is so much lighter now.

4th times a charm

Late Sunday night it was announced. . . they won their 4th Chairman's Award. It was a lot of work and a lot of pressure. The Holy Cows were up against 19 other teams at the San Diego Regional, all their hard work all summer and before kick off paid off. Now moving on to Championships in St Louis the pressure is mounting! No 4 digit team and no west coast team has ever won Championship Chairman's Award. Between now an April 25th we have a lot I work ahead of us. I get to be the mean one again, they thought they were tired of practicing and working on their speech before just wait.
