Big heart!

I always knew Jaden was special and had such an amazing heart but this week he proved it to me more than I can explain. I am walking the Avon Breast Cancer walk and I have talked about it a lot latley with him and sometimes on the phone (but he listens to everything). He knows I have to raise money and he said to me "I am going to help you" one afternoon. I thanked him and he went on to play wii and do kid stuff. He went to a birthday party this weekend and his dad gave him $10 just in case he wanted something from the snack bar (even though the party had food. haha). He came home from the party and I asked him how it went and he said "mom it was great but I have something for you". I was waiting for some craft to be handed to me from the party or another birthday invitation to another kids party when he handed me the $10 bill. He said "Dad gave this to me for food but I didn't want to get anything because I wanted to give it to you for your walk". My heart melted right then. He then went on to ask all the things he could do to help. He wanted to sell lemonade and even said he would stand on the corner with a sign. hahahahahaha He made a jar with the words BREAST CANCER FUND on it and started collecting all the coins around our house. He even rounded up his brother and sister to help him collect money from their piggy banks. In a few short days of collecting change and his $10, we now have almost $20. I am proud to say I have one of the kindest kids in the world. His heart amazes me and now he is teaching his brother and sister. I love my kids

I know, I know, I know

I know I suck at keeping up to date with my blog. So here goes my update

Me: I started back to school. I am only taking one class for my sanity. Work is going great, just busy. I am training for a half marathon, which is next month. I ran in a 10k last weekend (it has been a while since I ran in a race). Other then that.........I can't think of

Before race (tired face)

and after (red face)

Ok lets move onto kids.......

Jaden-He is doing great in school. He is so smart! He is starting baseball again and his team is the Pirates. This is the first year that his dad or papa is not coaching him. I think it will be good for him! He still loves to work with grandpa Ron.

Alec-Alec is starting real baseball this year too. He loves to tell everyone he is playing "pee wee", which basically means no tee. He is learning more and more everyday and is starting to learn to put words together. He is proud of the fact he can spell CAT, BAT, SAT etc.

Sienna-Sienna is still dancing every Saturday and is learning her recital dance now. I still don't think she will actually do it but we shall see. She has mastered her letters and what each letter sounds is (thank you leap frog). She is growing up so fast!

A few new pics of the kiddos
