Yard Stuff

I am SOOO Tired. We have spent all day in the yard but it is really starting to come together. We tore out a bunch of old stuff that was probably planted when this house was built, 1959, and we are getting ready to replace that area with grass! Yay, a bigger yard for Maya to play in. Nick is still outside working and it's after 8 PM, I think he made a contraption out of chicken wire and wood so he could separate all the yucky stuff from the dirt. It was beautiful out here in MI today so all of our neighbors, like us, came out of hibernation to visit and do yard work. I even got some color on my arms!!!

Maya is going to drive me crazy! She used to do so great with going to bed after I fed her at night and now when I put her in her crib she starts crying. Tonight I finally had it and just kissed her and let her cry, she only cried for about 10 minutes but I feel so bad. Last night was the worst though! She went to bed at 8:00, woke up at 10:30, then stayed up for an hour, up again at 4:30, then again at 5:30 and she was ready for the day!!!!! Oh crap, she is up again. I am so frustrated, I can't even stand it. What is up with her??

I got a new calling. I was Secretary in the Young Women but I was released and called as 2nd counselor in the Primary. Yikes, I have only served as a substitute teacher and I never went as a kid so I don't really know what to expect and I must admit, I'm a little nervous. Missy, do you have any tips? When I am in charge of Sharing Time, how much should I prepare?

Until next time!!!
