Beingness

"In life, you do not have to do anything,
It is all a question of what you are being."

Neale Donald Walsch.

I am trying to "be" the thing called "happiness", the thing called "peace" and the thing called "love".  I think I'm doing a pretty good job. =)  Being these things creates the experience of having them (since you can't be them and not have them).  The method works for me, that's for sure!

I am truly worn out.  After being in bed all weekend trying to get better (which worked by the way), I was back on Mummy duty as a volunteer at Scout Camp.  I promised Kaiden I would be there so my body had no choice but to cooperate with me and be there and functional.
I still can't get over how big he is, and I don't just mean physically.  He has always been a mature independent young man, but it seems from week to week he has drastic growth.
After this pic I finally convinced him to get a trim.
It is only  6pm and I think I am having an early evening.  Completed all my duties for the day (the ones that matter immediately at least), including making Johns, or one of Johns favorite dinners.
A little thank you for being patient and loving while nursing me back to heath all weekend.  Thank you. =)  Ill try and stop being a drain on the household in a few days.

Star Wars Birthday Party

It's that time of year for the boys double birthday party!! Since I... I mean they are so into star wars that was the obvious choice of a party theme. It was so cute at the end of the party after the boys opened all their gifts and John says, "Well, what did Mummy and I get you?"  They both shrugged.  I said, "We got you this beautiful party, and that is your gift." They both hugged us and said thank you without even complaining that we didn't buy them anything, such gracious boys! Then John brought out their bikes and they went crazy!! It was the cutest thing. Happy Birthday to our wonderful boys, Happy 7th and 9th Birthday Ethan and Kaiden!

And the Fun Begins

On Sunday, March 11th, we welcomed our newest family member.  Amalia Rachael Emily Benham. It all began Saturday morning.  I had signs of labor but we had the Pinewood Derby so I hoped she would wait.  And of course, she did. Contractions started coming in very slowly and Mummy and Binx came over.  We hung out, and hung out, and hung out and the contractions weren't getting stronger but slowly moving closer together.  We all finally took naps then we started hanging out again.  Finally at 12am we decided to go to the hospital. 3 cm dilated and I was admitted. Kindle, my bff of course came to the hospital as well.  All our biggest supporters were there. Waiting for Baby  Getting some well needed rest. Last moments before birth  My contractions never got  intense before the epidural kicked in, thank goodness.  Somehow my left side didn't kick in so I could feel it all on that side, but because I have back labor and I co...
