I never spend time doing much during the day besides taking care of my kids and catching a few moments of peace on the computer or with a good book. Today, though, I figured out on the computer how to make a picture movie of the kids. So, I spent all of naptime today working on a lovely video. I spent hours people. HOURS! I found some of my favorite pictures, and found the perfect song (that i had to find on the internet, download it to my computer, and save it to my video) and got all the timing just perfect. It was a perfectly lovely project that looked just right. It would bring a tear to my eye to watch it all the way through....such cute sweet children in all the photos!! Then, after all that work.....one of those cute sweet children from the pictures clicked something on the computer....and it all disappeared. :( I could have pinched her head off!!! Anyway, I did make a new one. I just put the pictures in the second time in no particular order. It was still fun and I look forward to doing another one when my kids are grown!! haha It's sort of cheesy, but i like it just the same. :)

What a perfect song! - Dixie Chicks? When I see your family together I wish that our lives lined up better so that our children could be friends. It makes me so excited to have a family one day!!
ok seriously you didn't WARN us that it was a tear jerker! i literally have tears streaming down my face! that was quite possibly the most beautiful, moving thing i've ever seen...a true illustration of what it means to be a mother...and it totally shows how increadibly much you LOVE your kids! teach me how to do that--i have a great song in mind for a video for zander!
thanks girls. it was fun, but next time i will do it when they are NOT home! By the time I got it done I was pulling my hair out!! :) I now have something to watch when they are making me crazy...to remind me why i do what i do!
