Preschool Graduation

Our fabulous first born boy graduated from preschool today. They had a really nice afternoon for them. After singing a few songs for the parents they were given their certificates and the teachers appreciated each child individually.


Caden's was "Caden!.... What a lot of energy and excitement you bring to the classroom! We always had an awesome time when you were here - your stories, acting, show and tell and construction projects all tell about the great ideas you have. And your imagination is so neat - whether you were being a super hero, a dragon, or another type of animal. Thank you for being a good listener and a good example to the boys and girls around you. You are a kind friend and include others. "



Then the kids told what they wanted to be when they grew up. While his classmates listed being moms, a dad, a teacher and a swimming teacher, Caden said he wanted to be a firefighter spaceman' - LOVE it!


He appeared to have endeared himself to alot of the girls in his class as well!


We were treated with a slide show of the years activities set to the usual sappy song. This year the first was "let them be little". Why do they do this to parents? It was a wonderful sappy time for this mom and most importantly a proud and happy moment for Caden as he heads to the first of his many school days.


I'm proud of our little guy and overjoyed to be living this life with my big beautiful family!

Embrace this moment - before you know it, you'll be faced with the request to bring back the library books, because Kindergarden is coming to an end. Yeesh!

Want a Little Freedom?

Stay in your lane. Don't look at other people's papers. Those couple of lines jumped out at me as I read Maria Goff's book " Love Lives Here" It reminded me that we can't all live the same life. Comparisons hold us back and discourage us like nothing else. We have fears of being different when we are SUPPOSED to be different. I grew up trying to fit in and not doing a very good job at it. When I was in my teens I thought I'd try a new approach so I started trying to be the opposite of what I was because I thought that is what everyone else wanted me to be. I am chatty and energetic and I tried to be dainty and quiet. I didn't do a very good job of that either. Yikes. Trying to be someone we're not is exhausting and it doesn't work. We seldom fool anyone or achieve the goal we thought we wanted. What we all really want I think, is to connect with one another and to matter. As an adult I have had goals and held them up against other p...

They are here. They are really really here!!!

It was a cool day. Almost too cold. The kind of cold that makes you rethink your very existence.... Boy. I am waaaay to tired for that. So I will give you the un-dramatic version. So, we are getting bombarded with requests for an update and pictures. So I will oblige and provide you with all the gory details. Actually, there are no gory details. In what can only be described as an amazing answer to many prayers, the new Mooney babies were brought into this world with no problems what so ever. We entered the hospital at 10:00 in the morning and were taken to the surgery room around 12:00 noon. At exactly 12:38, the first baby, Dylan Michael was born weighing in at 6 pounds even. Then, also at 12:38, Evan Timothy also charged into the world weighing in at 5.2 pounds. Then, at 12:39 Liam David was born weighing 4.8 pounds. For those of you good at math, that is a whopping 16 pounds worth of babies. 16 POUNDS!!! And even though them just being born at 36 weeks and 5 days isn...

Am I really having triplets?

What does a person blog about the day before they have triplets? I mean - there are a million things going through my head but I can hardly sort them out, let alone write them down. It's all just very amazing, surreal, scary, exhilarating and on and on and on. I think there is just too much so I'll just ask that you pray for all of us and we'll try to post news as soon as we can. I likely won't be at the computer til the end of the week (if ever again :) ) but Justin will check it and try to update everyone.
