I get this question all the time..........

Now, I don't write this all out to complain or anything. I am just a mom, who loves her kids. Who enjoys watching her children learn and grow. This schedule (this is just all the stuff that has actual time allotted for these events) is probably close to every mother who enjoys what she does. And I know there are many who are more scheduled than I am. To them I say........ Way to go!!!!!!! I LOVE BEING A MOTHER!

I don't want to leave out the very important father in all of this. Dan is very supportive of us and, when he is able and not trying to support our family, he is right there "going and doing" right along with us.

So when I am not answering my phone, or screening my calls, or just plain not available this is why. Please don't take offense. I don't when you do it to me.
