I know what I'm supposed to be posting about today as it's the last Thursday of the month, but I am seriously just not feeling it. My morning started out with Caleb waking up at stupid o'clock and then waking his brothers up as well. He pushed and pushed until he got a privilege taken away and then proceeded to try to hurt his brothers in a fit of rage. Definitely not my best morning and my evening wasn't much better due to personal struggles. I went for a walk just so I could break down crying.
I don't feel like I have anything to say that anyone would want to hear about. Maybe I'm just writing this all out because writing it out helps make me feel the tiniest bit better, I'm not sure. Or maybe it's because I promised myself when I made my blog public again that I'd never feel bad about posting the truth about things and being real and human.
I am considering moving next year. Not sure where to, just somewhere that we could get a fresh start. We'll see what happens...
I need to start making things for Caleb's Harry Potter party. I need to look at my ideas and make a few final decisions. He also wants it to be a dress up party, but I haven't decided on that one yet.
The goings on of our geeky little family and the musings and soapbox moments of the lone female in the group.

Goings On And What Not
I've been a horrible blogger lately and haven't been posting much about anything. I'm still loving my calling as the Beehive adviser and am super excited to go to camp in a couple of months. Tomorrow will by the last day of my last personal progress experience, so I will be done it as of Thursday morning :) It's been an amazing experience and I'm so glad that I decided to do it.
I am currently entered for a giveaway from Geekling Designs, which I have completely fallen in love with. I think I may end up spending a fortune on their stuff whenever we get pregnant next time.
My friends and I are currently planning a Harry Potter party, which I am LOVING! Caleb has also chosen Harry Potter as the theme for his birthday this year, so I'll be able to double up on decorations. Ty chose Angry Birds for his birthday.
Bretts had his eye surgery 2 weeks ago and his eyes are majorly improved. He goes for his follow up with his opthalmologist this afternoon. He had his hearing test last Thursday and he has normal hearing. That day he learned to say "hello", which is so adorable. He also started climbing the stairs that evening. It was quite the day for him. Yesterday he was saying "three" because John was counting to 3 while doing something with him. I love seeing him progress like this and catch up to where he should be.
We are setting things up right now for Caleb to start taking piano lessons in the fall. He is VERY excited about it.
Yesterday we had a BBQ with some friends which we really enjoyed. Life is going pretty good at the Bly house.

The People Who Make This Day Special For Me
A post for the people who have made me a mother!
There are 4 people I live with who have made me a mother. My husband, who has been oh so patient over the past 6 1/2 years (and is currently frying up bacon for me). He has stood by me through thick and thin and I'm so blessed to be his eternal companion. This week will be 7 years since we first met.
Caleb, my wonderful little boy. He has stood by me through a lot as well and has often brightened my day with his smiles and hugs. Caleb is growing into an amazing young man and I'm so happy with him.
Tyrell, who constantly keeps me on my toes and is trying to single handedly to finally teach me patience. He can be the most adorable little dude ever when he gives his crooked little grin.
Brettley, who made me feel like a first time mother all over again. He and I had such a tough haul, but he is the cutest little chicken ever and such a trooper through all of his trials.
Also, just a mention about some other women who have helped make me a mother.
My grandma, who is currently going through horrible health issues that she will never recover from in this life.
C, who is so super amazing and loves L so much. I love you guys so much!
Finally, my mum, who sacrificed so much to do her very best as a mother. She was and still is an amazing example of a selfless mother who loves her divine role.
Happy mothers day to all who are a mother in any way, shape and/or form.
