Yep, I did it again.  I waited too long to write and forgot my password AGAIN.  If I could just have one password for everything then maybe I'd remember.  More brain exercises I guess.
Tobin has started feeling empathy, it's sad and cute at the same time.  He was watching Toy Story 2 and was so upset when Wheezy the penguin gets put in the box.  He cried and sobbed until I convinced him that Woody would rescue the penguin.  The next day at daycare he was listening to the story The Big Hungry Bear and the Red Ripe Strawberry.  His teacher said he cried and cried at the end when the bear didn't get any of the strawberry.  I hope he is always this concerned about people as he gets older.

Does anyone else hate passwords?  I just spent a half hour trying to get into this blog.  I thought I remembered my password but it turns out I was wrong.  After jumping through 25 thousand hoops I FINALLY got to the "change my password" option, only to find out ALL the passwords that I would remember, I had already "used".  Grrrrr.  I probably won't remember this one which means I may take forever to write on the blog again. 

On a lighter note, Riley had a total God moment today!  She couldn't find her Valleyfair pass last night and was pretty upset.  She called me this morning to say she found it and how she found it.  She said she prayed before she went to sleep last night and then had a dream about where it was.  I LOOKED in the place where she said she found it and I tell you IT WASN'T THERE LAST NIGHT!  I sure love that God cares about us so much that even Valleyfair matters to Him! 

Well, life has proceeded faster than the fastest rollercoaster at Valleyfair.  Summer is over and school is upon us.  That means school supplies, early mornings, two middle schoolers (one will also become an official teenager), a toddler, clutter and no time for much of anything.  Wow!

After working a full day at work, coming home to make dinner, going back for a 2 1/2 hour staff meeting, coming home to do dishes and try to get my toddler back to bed, I'm ready for a glass of whine/wine and a good book.  Too bad I still have cupcakes to make and therefore more dishes to do before that can happen.  Oh well, one day I'll look back on these days with fondness.....right?

Good morning!  Today the sun is shining, my coffee is hot and the house is peaceful.  Soon the coffee will be gone, the children will wake and there will be no more peace....and that's ok.  I am blessed to have 3 healthy children, a husband with a job, a roof over my head and friends & family who love me.  Mostly I am thankful to my Lord and Savior Jesus whom I don't thank enough.
I've changed my blog title to "Tracy's Blue Corner" because "Coffee at Tracy's house at 2:00 on Saturday's" was too long of a title and "Tracy's Corner" was already taken.  Plus it works since we live on a corner and our house is blue.  Hopefully I don't lose any followers.  I wasn't sure how to do it right.
I don't have a plan for the blog so far.  I figured I'd wing it.  I feel like I ought to do another challenge or give great wisdom (ha!) but for now let's just fill up a cup of coffee and chat!  Here's to changes, sunny days and coffee!
