So this post will make more sense if you read my previous post. The post about how just the other day, two men made comments where they assumed Cambria was our biological child (one of the men even made a comment about how we could "just adopt" another girl down the road!)
So today while my oldest two sons were at guitar lessons, my youngest son and Cambria and I went to the store to get a few things...specifically a few more things to go with a baby shower present for a friend. So we're at the register checking out, and the male cashier who looked like he was in his early-mid 30's said that Cambria's eyes are so beautiful. (Which is very true~ girlfriend has got THEE best blue eyes!) He then goes on to say that I did a good job with giving her those beautiful blue eyes.
Unfortunately, I cannot take credit for those baby blues! I just said thank you and left. Was it necessary to tell him she's adopted so I had nothing to do with her eyes?
Anyways, Jacob has a project on Albert Einstein due this week, so I'm busy printing off resource material for that.
Can I please tell anybody that will listen to me whine that I am so darn sick of all of these projects that my oldest two sons have to do this school year, along with a ridiculous amount of homework. I don't have a lot of time to write on this blog, because I'm too busy helping my middle son write on his class blog every week! They both have daily homework (and I do mean daily) math and spelling worksheets, plus book reports and presentations on these book reports and the blog I mentioned, then once a week writing assignments in a journal to be done at home, then project after project after project and both kids seem to have these things due at the same time. Sorry, I am just over it. And I can't wait to see how this all plays out when baseball season starts in March (insert sarcastic tone here). With three kids playing baseball and they are all in different age groups, we are at the baseball field 5 nights a week (and sometimes on Saturdays too). I hope my sons can keep up their straight A's that they've both gotten all year. My 6th grader has homework every weekend too. Can't he get a day off?
BTW, did you know that Albert Einstein is credited with a bunch of really good quotes?
My favorite one, that I say all the time, is:
What is the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results.
I have to go get lab tests done in the morning~ and I haven't studied for them yet! Ha ha ha! No seriously, my hair has been breaking.....like it's snapping off. It looks like I have layers, only really bad layers that are all uneven all over my head. VERY attractive! HA! I love my hair (sorry if that seems shallow- especially coming from the girl that doesn't own makeup other than pink lipgloss and chapstick!), and I hope that there isn't something seriously wrong internally that is causing this. Plus I have to have my cholesterol levels checked.....becuase it's time, actually I am way overdue. Tsk tsk on this doctor! I am hoping I don't get any surprises like "you have diabetes!" or that my thyroid is seriously out of whack. More on this later, after I get my results.
Goodnight! Time to study! lol :)
