I think the compassionate factor that comes standard in women skipped me. Actually, I know it did. And I expect too much of my children. A part of me wishes that I could experience a day in their brain. See how their thought processes work. So that when one of them comes up to them and just randomly smacks the other, I really do know what they were thinking. Jackson woke up one night screaming. My first instinct? Call me sleep nazi. Again, girl side of brain prevailed.

Friday, August 14, 2015. I am siting here staring down my calendar. 10 days left of Summer. I just cannot believe its almost over. I have never been much of a Summer person, but I have to admit, I am a little sad. I think it is because the last few months have been absolutely amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed every sleepy morning and every afternoon nap. Every sunny afternoon and every bite of summer fruit. Every moment of quality time spent. Every cartoon binge day in our jammies. I love you, Brad! .
