Having 4 kids can be really draining . especially when you've worked a long day and your trying to get dinner ready and they all want a piece of you . I try to remind myself that these crazy days wont last forever and I know that when they are over and they've moved out and gotten on with thier lives  my heart will be broken . Being a mom is what Ive waited forever for .

     Today I was lucky to have the day off from work , my husband was chaperoning a field trip for our daughter to a Zoo . My oldest son was at school all day and I was home with our two youngest ages 3 and 2 . This evening I threw myself down on the couch exhausted after my long day . My 3 year old curled up next to me and said " Thank you mommy , for playing outside with me today " Its the  Little things like that is what makes my entire day :)

We're lucky to live in such a beautiful state . The other day we went to one our favorite swimming places and had a BBQ with family and friends . My husband and I also got married there . http://www.vtstateparks.com/htm/killkare.htm

I apologize for the fact that I have been away so long .Im back with some new ideas for the blog , i'd like to share my other passion which is plants and gardening . Recently my family started really getting into vegetable gardening . My daughter Lily loves helping and I thought it might be fun for her to do garden updates . so here is our first video update . Enjoy :)
