Fly by February and Manic March

I have so much to catch up on. February was so busy that I did not get the opportunity to blog and March has started out even worse. Now I have intense catching up to do. We started the month with Kim's birthday. Then BriAnna's birthday. I went back on track to getting ready for our fifth grade program and learning and administering a new reading leveling test. All this to be prepared for Parent teacher conferences the first week of March.

Once again I was late with the birthday presents for the ones in Massachusetts and Nevada. Alexis and Ava both had birthdays in February and Raquel & Eric celebrated their fifth anniversary. Then Dresden decided to come a little early on the 23rd of the month. I had hoped that we would be able to come down this weekend to visit for a little bit...but that was not to be either-for February ended with a vengence.

Grams got a phone call that Aunt Doris was fading fast and she should come if she was going to. Grams left on Tuesday and Aunt Doris passed away on Thursday. So, my plans for the next few days changed drastically. We celebrated Chacity's birthday on Friday (it wasn't until Sunday along with Kadin's). I flew out on Saturday to have the privilege of arranging flowers for her casket, saying goodbye while dressing her, singing for her one more time at her funeral, visiting with family for a few hours and flying back early Tuesday morning so I would be able to get ready for parent conferences Wednesday and Thursday.


I have hope that March will mellow out a bit but I don't think so. I just hope I will not be late with birthdays again.
