Tornados and other- yucky stuff.

Since my last my post, the Midwestern United States (where I reside) was hit with a line of tornadoes. My little roos and I were blessed enough that the tornado just missed us and stayed south. However our neighboring cities and states were hit and tragedy struck when even a few of the towns were completely "gone".

I did my best to report it throughout social networks, in hopes that I would inspire others to help volunteer in any way they could- as that could have been us as well.  Unfortunately many passed in the dangerous weather and it gave me a new appreciation for my time with my little kiddos. Life is far too precious to take a second for granted (do much needed naps count with this? ;).

In the meantime, we've been working hard on our daily lives.  Which yes, include the occasional "don't say those yucky words or you're going to time out" phrases.  My three year old son is currently working on breaking the habit of talking about bodily functions and thinking it's hilarious.  My six year old doesn't help much by spelling the words to him to get him to say them.  (I must say though, she is one smart cookie!)

As for me, I am surviving the terrific three's for yet another round and doing well with my writing. I am finishing up the editing for Violet; Irresistible and  am working on publishing three children's books. Overall, I will just be happy if by the end of the week, I won't hear "p-o-o-p" come out of either of the little children's mouth's. Heh, wishful thinking never hurt anyone. :)
