Sounds I love most!

My sister did this assignment about her favorite 10 sounds she hears. Since I found it very interesting to hear hers I decided to write my own favorite 10 sounds. Here we go.

1- My children and husband laughing together.
2- Sound of water crashing, like a waterfall or waves or the gentle crashing against my boat.
3- Nature at night-time. Crickets, frogs, all that comes along with it.
4- Crackling of a campfire.
5- The voices of my siblings and parents gathered together reminising over childhood memories.
6- A newborn babies coos and squeakes.
7- Baby animal sounds, especially baby goats.
8- Birds chirping in the springtime, unless it is extremely early and I am not ready to get up for the day then it is not so pleasent to me. But that is a rare occasion.
9- A pop can being opened don't ask me why but, I have always felt a strange sense of stress release when I hear that sound.
10- My children squeezing me and saying "I love you".

That one really makes you think. Try it on your blog I would love to hear your sounds.

Kindergarten Registration


Is this really possible? Could my children really be growing up before my own eyes? Today I took Treg down to our Shelley Elementarty to register him for Kindergarten in the fall. I can't believe my baby will take his first big step into independance in just 7 short months. I am trying to live in the moment and enjoy all the time I have with him. But it is hard not to look at the big picture and see how fast these years are slipping away. Terry is no help he just tells me to "enjoy the vacation while you are on it and stop thinking about when it is over and you have to go back to work." I know this advice in my head I tell myself the same thing day in and day out. But that doesn't take the sting away from the wound, it still hurts. I guess this day had to come and here it is. I have loved my long days with the kids home with me, and I will miss every minute they are away from me. Love you kiddos!
