How did that happen?? It's amazing how things just fly by. The older I get and the older my children get, the faster things seem to go. I went shopping with our lovely 10 year old last night and boy oh boy is she becoming quite the young lady...she went from loathing shopping trips and not really caring about hair, clothes or accessories, to picking out green skinny jeans, purple high tops and seriously loving belts right now. The discussions we have been having in the past little bit made reality hit me square in the face - she is embarking upon those lovely teen years which we all cherished (bwahahahaha!!!) Obviously it's only natural to get all mushy and nostalgic about when she was a tiny baby and all of her firsts but I'm actually quite excited about it...not the crazy mood swings, the bad hair days and the "my world is ending" part of what is coming up for her, but the anticipation of the next phase of our lives...
We are DONE here in the Ferguson household when it comes to all things BABY, so it's onto the next part...by the time fall rolls around ALL 3 of our beauties will be in some sort of schooling...yes, that's right! C will be in pre-school, R will be in Grade 1 and T in Grade 5 (Middle School!!!!!!!)
Over the past few weeks we have been working our little butts off getting rid of clutter in our cozy little abode hoping to list it in the near future so we can find a house where we AREN'T all living on top of eachother...sorting through all of this stuff is actually quite ridiculous! I can't believe how much STUFF we have been hanging onto for years! Well, tis the year to PURGE and it feels GREAT!! I used to be the Queen of holding onto everything (just in case) but throwing stuff out, bagging things for donations and doing dump runs feels fantastic! Almost like a new start...
Happy February everyone...
