I am grateful to many people who helped to make yesterday not only manageable but fun. Thank you especially to Carol and Kellie... without you both... I would have been crazier than normal!!!
All the kids had fun dying their eggs and it was nice to not feel totally responsible for it all... It was nice to have help, Kellie-Thank you!
What made the day was Mackenzie going to have "Easter" with her friends.... I am sorry I missed it, but am so grateful to you all for giving her a little bit of normal, Urbans- Thank you!!!
This morning tho she was still very tired and shy (not really cooperative) I am really torn as a parent as to how to handle this... She is being asked to sing a solo on Easter Sunday and it's a song she knows pretty well. She went to practice "singing into the microphone" today.. and lets just say.... well watch for yourself..lol.... I had to bribe her to even sing it... I felt bad... the music director asked her to do this, rode her bike in the yucky weather (she said this to Mackenzie to try to get her to sing) and I had to make it earlier so I could get stuff done before having to be at work... She finally sang it... but then when we got in the car.. she REALLY sang it... seriously. I know if she does not do it.. it will be an issue with her.. and if she does.. we never know what we will get... she could sing it really awesome... or we could get this Mackenzie...
When I look at my child(ren) acting like this.. I think what would my mom say or do if she were here? Would I be a better mom if she were around? I know-what's the point of thinking like this...? I will stop and be grateful for where my life is... Really I am grateful- Thanks Be to God!!!!
