This is a photo a day journal of the trials and tribulations and all around craziness of trying to raise three boys. It is not always happy go lucky because this is real life, but an honest account of what daily life is like for my family as we maneuver through life.

Tears and More Tears
Not for any good reason mind you - just because. I was supposed to be working on a wedding album for a gift for Victor for Valentine's Day that I never finished. Yes, I am aware that Valentine's has come and gone. Yes, I am aware that my husband went all out to show his love for me.
"Schmuck, table for one?" Yes, I know. No excuses.
So anyway, I was going to spend the day working on it when I made the fatal mistake of turning on the TV. I was sucked in. There was a movie on called Walk to Remember. It has Mandy Moore in it. She is a high school misfit, her dad is the town preacher, she is very faithful and falls in love with the most popular boy in school. This would be your typical movie, except that she is dying from leukemia. It is really sad - so of course I had to watch it and get a good cry going.
So after the movie, I noticed that I had not watched Grey's Anatomy or Private Practice. Why not? So I settle in. Well guess what? Both of these are tear-jerkers too. There is death in one and a funeral in another. So basically, I spent my Friday morning on the couch crying while watching sad TV.
Around 1:30 I peeled myself off the couch to wipe the tears away and open the door for the young man who would be spending the weekend with us. We went and picked up the kids and then treated ourselves to McDonald's. Did I mention that I was too busy crying to eat? Honestly, I was fine after I turned the TV off and removed myself from depressing shows. I guess I just needed a good cry. Its a girl thing right ladies? Any ladies? Anyone?
Anyway, here we are at MCD so I can finally eat.
Notice that dark hand? That is Victor who got off work early and met us. He took William with him to get a hair cut.
