I'm A 'No' Mom

Hello, hello!  First, I want to say Happy Birthday, Grandma Omi!

Yesterday as I was mowing the yard, I found a copperhead snake skin.  Cue...freak out!  I only had about 10 passes left when I came across it and those last 10 passes I was Nervous Nelly.  If I had my phone, I would have taken a picture.  One month left here and hopefully we won't have to worry about copperheads in our new yard 🙏

Xander is always wanting to use my phone to make slo-mo videos.  I would rather him not be on my phone because kids are careless and I don't want a broken phone.  So, I usually say 'no' when he asks. After some whining and complaining, he brought me this note.


This note was funny to me because he told me I could use the money to buy our new house.  If only, if only a house would cost $13 😂  I haven't agreed to his terms, just because I'm nervous what the next request would be and I'd have to say 'yes' to.  I try to have a random 'yes' day, but it hasn't been this year yet.  They loved it last year!  Maybe after we move I'll surprise them by saying 'yes' more often.

Nick has been in language training and he's been getting home around 5 (2-4 hours earlier than in the past).  I've been loving it, but I haven't been loving eating dinner so early.  He likes to eat right when he gets home because he's starving from a full day.  It's an adjustment, but it's worth having him home so early.

Have a great day!
