Ode to Carmen...or such...


Over the weekend our good friends Carmen and family (you can check her and her wonderful online mag at http://freshwind08.blogspot.com/ ) came over because the hubbies had a meeting and bible school. So we got to share some much needed girly time! It's always nice when they come-we always seem to have much to chat about-even though we talk almost every day!

Well, as we were chatting, Carmen discovered my 2008 FLM STAFF CHAMPION award. At which time, she exclaimed "You didn't tell me you won an award! Every mother needs to talk about that!". I guess I didn't think it such a big deal-it wasn't for being a mom-it was for an all out staff olympics-but crazy of sorts.

There was huge tricycles, hula-hoops, relay races and all the good stuff. We worked as a team (of only 6 of us-against much greater numbers) and came out on top!! Well, the funny thing was that every other team (the red team mostly-love u kasie) ran their mouths and said they would win-but we showed them-we won with even the baby in tow-haha!

Anyway...this is my ode to Carmen....because she told me I needed to show off my medal.....so here it is...
Maybe one day I will recieve a medal for all these kiddos...until then, I am accepting the "drooly kisses award" the "roll my eyes, yet I still love you" award.... and last but not least "I love you, Mommy!" Will do me just fine!!!

Red team got cheated! You guys showed everyone what was up though! That tug of war was ridiculous!
