TGIF!!!

TGIF!!! Well to a certain extent... I do work tomorrow but I'm still glad that it's the weekend!!! This week has been filled with non-stop to-do lists, practices and appointments for Noah and myself... So needless to say I'm tired!!! So glad to be done with this week... At least the weather is finally breaking and cooling down a bit.. We really got through some scorchers at 112 degrees!!! Way hot...That's Vegas hot.... If I don't get to hang out at a cool casino, then it can't be that hot around here!!! hahahaha!!

Work has been getting busier.. and that is a great thing... The end of summer is always a slow season for surgery... All the kids are going back to school, parents are stressed, gotta spend money on clothes and supplies...Who wants to add surgery to that list??? It's always a little scary when you look at the OR schedule and only see a few cases on there... And as much fun as it is to hang out on the computer, go out to loooong lunches and watch movies at work...it's always better to have job security in the means of surgeries to do and people to help...

Noah has been practicing his Tae Kwon Do religiously and I expect he will get his third stripe on his yellow belt this coming Monday! Next will be his belt test (which I think will be in the beginning of October) Then he will advance as a camouflage belt..and begin to spar!!! I can't wait for this!!! His class dates might even change to Tues. and Thurs. I am so happy my little man loves this! It has really made his personality and attitude change in the most positive way.

The other day when I was dropping him off at Kinder Care. I walked in the door and started signing him in...(as usual) He walked back to the door and opened it because he saw another mommy carrying her two babies and having a hard time getting in carrying everything she had.... She told him he was such a gentleman and how he had great manners!!!! I had such a proud mommy moment!!! I just looked at him and gave him a great big hug... and told him I was so proud of him!!!! Moments like these make me so grateful...and proud of myself too..That I had something to do with teaching someone else to be kind and caring to others!

Just positive reinforcement that Mark and I are doing the right things for our boy! He always helps my mom with errands and chores around her house, but this time it was for someone he didn't even know.... I love my little guy!!!!

Now, it's time for me to get some dinner ready and hang out with my boys for the rest of the night!!!! Tomorrow-work and Sunday-Glen Ivy!!!! woohooo!!!! Life is great!!! Have a great weekend everyone and be safe!!!!
