Too long...

Boy, does time fly! We have just been non-stop and, then, with a baby that is up every hour-and-a-half to two hours at night. I just can't handle lack of sleep like I used to...aaah, to be a college student again. Actually, one time was enough. I had a lot of fun, mostly bad-for-me-fun, and now I just love having good fun with the kids. Hence, the busy. Not to mention, keeping up with our house, the rentals, the laundromat and, now, the thrift store. Did I say thrift store? YUP! Ron & I, along with the endless dedication from his mom and the wonderful friends that God has blessed us with, are opening The Junk Drawer Thrift Store on Friday! We are excited to start another business and hope that we will be able to give back to the community through it. How we are going to manage ANOTHER time zapper, I am not sure. As if 5 kids are not enough with all of their interests....Which leads me to...Kira. She auditioned for The Muny, which is a place in St Louis that does plays. About 500 kids auditioned that day, and she made it! I couldn't believe it! And when they called to let her know that they had chosen her, she jumped up and down, screamed, and burst into tears...and kept doing that for the next hour or so. It was so cool. The problem now is that her play "Beauty and The Beast" (we don't know what she is going to be doing yet) runs through June 30 and we have to be in CA for a family reunion on July 3rd! And we are driving! Ron will NOT fly. Sooo, that should be fun. Well, all the kids are finally down for the count, even the hubby, and I am going to follow. Hope you enjoyed my little blabbering session....God bless!
