 Tim and Teagan having some bonding time.

I am so tired.  I guess blogging at 11 pm is not the wisest thing to do.  Regardless, I need to update the world on the happenings with the Fisher household.  Saturday was so busy.  It started with McCabe’s soccer game and then tae kwon do testing.  On our way home, the Andersons were pulling out trees and needed some help so Tim got the chainsaw and went to work.  I chatted with Megan as the boys worked and the kids played.  After that we went to a birthday party for Hayden Nippert in Riverton and then left early to make it back for stake conference.  My feet were hurting by the end of the day.  I just wanted to sleep.  Teagan was good for the most part.  I had to get up a few times during the night to feed him but overall it was not bad.  Sunday morning came too soon.  I was so tired but got up anyways and went to stake conference.  The kids were good.  They moved around a lot but were quiet.  We brought crayons and paper along with gummy worms to keep them quiet and it worked.
Last Sunday was Mother’s Day.  Mother’s Day was……normal would be the best word to describe it.  Tim had the kids fix breakfast.  We had donuts, coffee cake, and fruit.  Church was nice because I learned about Christ and got some chocolates for being a mother.  Nothing out of the ordinary really happened that day and that is the way I like it.  Tim and I are a very low key couple.  I am happy with going out to dinner or getting flowers.  You don’t need to surprise me with expensive gifts to make me smile.  I prefer making memories rather than standing in the spotlight.
School is coming to an end.  McCabe had his preschool graduation.  I know he will miss his teacher Miss Stacie.  Her teaching abilities are amazing.  McCabe wants to spell words.  He will sit at the table and ask how to spell words like “vampire” or “bats.”  I will tell him the letters and he will write them.  It makes me so happy to see he knows his alphabet. 
Jacinda is getting stronger at reading.  She still struggles but I plan to visit the library on a weekly basis during the summer to help refine her skills.  I hope she develops a love for reading.  I am currently reading about the Gerson Diet Therapy.  I find it fascinating because it uses food as medicine to cure ailments.  I wish I had found this book 10 years ago.  I would have loved to use its concepts on my mom to help her battle cancer.

 Happy Teagan.
