My Kourtney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today marks two years since Kourtney left her home on earth and returned to her Heavenly
Father. I love her lots and lots and I miss her. She is a very special Angel and is in a very special place. I am happy that I day I get to be with her again:)
The doctors told me that she would probably not live through the birth and I prayed that she would get to spend a little while with her family. After she was born I was told that we might get one day with her. We got eight months - at times it was trying on us, but I will always be grateful:) I love her so much!

Jaxon was told that because his little sister had died he was not a big brother anymore - that really upset him. I told him that even though Kourtney now lives in heaven and not on earth he would always be her big brother. She will always be part of all of us.

Yay for Dan!

Dan recently got a promotion at work and moved from the Harrisville Walmart to the one that is not yet open near 20th street (by the river.) The store does not open until May but he started working there this week. He is a support Manager. He has been working some long hours this week. He says he feels like he basically lives there and just comes home to sleep for a few hours between shifts:) I know it is hard on him and I am really happy that he so willing to work so hard for us:) He is THE BEST.

The park.

The last day of spring break it decided to not rain or snow so Kadrey, Jaxon, and Aunt Kali venture out into the cool weather and played at the park. Dan and I met up with them and I was able to get some fun pictures of them. There was still snow on the ground but they did not care:) they loved it.

Mom, I can fix it - see!

Yesterday Jaxon "accidentally" ripped the little puff ball off the top of Kadrey's hat. She was upset and Jaxon was sad because he is very tender hearted and often regrets his bad decisions almost instantly :). After his time - out and her crying he came up to me with her hat, puff ball, and piece of tape and said "Mom, I can fix it - see"

spring/winter break:(

Last year we enjoyed our spring break withwinter temperatures and snow on the ground - this year is a lot of the same :( We had big plans for this extra long weekend - we had to postpone most of them! We have kept busy going to krispy kreme donuts, playing with cousins, going to soccer games, window shopping and going to the Air Force Base Museum - so
I guess that kind of makes up for the yucky weather.



Today was Jaxons last indoor soccer game of the season! They did pretty good. Jaxon had a lot of fun with his team. - The little goalie got kicked in the face right before the game was over.

Soccer Saturdays!

THEY'RE BACK!

Soccer Saturday's that is!!!!!! Now I know that by the end of the season I am tired and worn out from getting up early and then sitting through the kids games - but I really do enjoy soccer time:) Watching Kadrey and Jaxon play is a trill.
OK sometimes I get upset with them and turn into one of those parents that are yelling from the sidelines (but really there are worse - I am not so bad:)

Kadrey has a real talent for the game and it is so fun watching her play, sometimes I forget she is only 8 and I expect too much from her (whoopsy). Lucky for all involved Dan is there to remind me to chill:) Jaxon has his
glory moments and has a real passion for the game, he gets better with every game (I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that he loves to play the video games, they help him understand the game better).
I love watching them thrive at something they really both love.

5K - oh boy:)

We did it! We ran/walked (mostely walked) the 5k last weekend. Kadrey finished the race with her teacher Miss Hill @:46 and Jax and I finished @ :49. We had a lot of fun - Dan was upset that I did not register him to go with us (whoops) but will go with us next year. - Its not like I could ditch the kids and just take off because I do believe that I would have gotten a better time - stupid conscience:) all well, it was fun and for a good cause (the school)
