What a mixed up kinda day..

Today has been one of those days...filled with all kinds of emotions!

I wonder how much one person's mind can take in..in just a days time?

I wish that I could take pain away from my loved ones ~ I wish I could take away the fear that life may change ~ I wish that some how, some way the good things in life, would always just stay the way that they are ~ I wish that each and every day would fill us with hope, for better things to come.

I have always believed that changes in ones life are absolutely necessary for growth...but I also know (because I am a human) that "we" humans DO NOT like change! Especially the kind that takes us out of our comfort zone. The kind that makes us think about deeper things, than just "what will I cook for dinner tonight?"

The feelings I have felt today are happy, sad, mad, glad feelings!! That is the only way to describe today! Sleeping on these feelings will most likely make everything seem better and not so big and gloomy. I am sure of it!!

Baby SHOWer!!

Maki and Ally made this adorable banner.

My sister Carrie, made this adorable diaper cake!

Cute cousins!

Best food ever!

I could not figure out IF they wanted their picture taken or not .. lol

Tons of cute, cute presents!

The look on Jenna's face says it all!

It has been quite a few years since we have had a baby close by that we can spoil rotten! My brother Paul and his wife Christina have sweet babies all the time...lol...but not close enough for me to hold. I am so super excited for Baby Reidhead to be born! We have no clue what her name is...because her Momma is being stingy!! Which is okay...cause it is her baby, right? We had a fun shower for the baby last weekend! It was so much fun to have an "all girls" party!

Usually the boys are around and eat all the food! 

The baby should be born on April the 1st...IF the plans stick.

It's a LUCKy Day!!

I really love all holidays...each day just gives me an excuse to celebrate and be happy! 

It seems like the years slip by too quickly not to enjoy every

day to the fullest! 

St' Patrick's Day brings "green stuff"...

candy, socks, hair barrettes, food and just plain fun!

We have had a leprechaun named Virgil that has lived at our house for years. 

He gets blamed for alot of things. 

**Tying those pesky knots in hair, while little girls sleep, 

making brushing out the hair impossible!! 

**He steals binkies and bottles from unsuspecting toddlers,

to never be seen again! 

**He occasionally dirties clean bedrooms, that the girls swear "It wasn't me!" 

**He leaves little green trinkets on St. Patrick's Day morning! 

**Once in a great while he will get rid of a favorite shirt that suddenly becomes too tight for the wearer, or never actually did fit! 

All in all Virgil is one of those "catch all" Leprchauns, 

that really doesn't even mind being blamed for all the chaos

that goes on in the Workman household. Happy St. Patrick's Day Virgil...thanks for taking the blame when we don't want too!!

Warmer days...chilly nights

This time of year has always fascinated me...the days are getting warmer and the nights seem to stay chilly. It is at this time, that I always catch the worst cold of the year...not only the weather, but my body can't figure out if its cold or hot! I love how the sun wakes me in the morning, gently getting brighter and brighter. Nothing makes me more anxious than waking up to the dark! I have never liked that feeling. But now, just as I am getting used to my early morning wakening (with beautiful sunshine)....it will be dark again. Time to change the clocks once again. It is so confusing to my body and takes such a long time to get used too. I do love having the sun set later in the day though! Yeah for long walks in the evening sun! and yeah for the days that seem to be warmer and warmer :)
