More of our last week and last blog post for a while....

It is Friday night and though I should be doing some last minute clean ups before the big move tomorrow I decided to procrastinate instead. I figure it will at least be a month before I get another blog post in so better make this a good one.
This week has been full of goodbyes and lots of packing. I took Stephen to his school for a last goodbye to his teacher and friends. I feel bad taking him out early and that he is going to miss his own preschool gradution which he has been learning songs for. (It is really cute he can sing "you raise me up" and "I believe I can fly") But he tells me he is very excited to move.




Jack wanted to sneak into a few of the pictures also!
After getting through the goodbyes at Stephens school I hosted one last goodbye playdate with some ladies in the ward. I reserved the movie theater at our complex (which is pretty cool and free of charge). The kids watched Walle and we got to chat until it was time to say goodbye. I REALLY HATE GOODBYES!!

The saddness does not end there...
Jack and I were at a baseball game of Stephen's and while I was watching Stephen playing Jack climbed to the top of the bleachers and fell off onto the pavement. I heard the thud and my heart leapt out of my chest. Luckily he only landed on his side and his head did not hit, but he did get a nasty bruise and scared me to death. Everyone around though was so helpful and got me ice packs and everything. Stephen's coach after the game even volunteered to take Stephen for a while in case I needed to take Jack to the doctor. I thought that was an awesome gesture. He knew Matt was out of town and just wanted to help. So I didn't earn the award for Mommy of the Week this week.
After it all happened I called up my sister to tell her about it and to seek some comforting advice. Instead she told me this horror story about a friend whose kid fell off the stage in a church and she didn't take him to the emergency room and the kid ended up dying in his sleep. Then she went on further telling me that the mom was sent to Jail for it!
I was not comforted by this at all!! Thanks anyway Janil!!:)
Well I think that I have procrastinated long enough and better get busy or it is going to be a very late night.

I love that Stephen learned "You Lift Me Up" and "I believe I can fly" for his graduation. I hope Jack is feeling better also! I hope the move went well and good luck unpacking! We'll need to get together sometime this summer.
