tired

I want to be so excited about living that I don't have time to be tired.

That's what Sarah wrote on her blog today and ME TOO. That's what I think when I read that. I've been saying I'm tired a lot this week. Tired in like a real way and a way I can't figure out because I have been sleeping enough. So I shouldn't be tired.

I'm talking to Katelyn right now because Ella is talking in sentences. She says "You wanna be like me mommy?" which I just think is hilarious. But I cannot believe that the sweet baby girl I knew is old enough to talk in sentences. And laugh at herself.

My mom tells me all the time that she can't believe I'm old enough to graduate college. I can't believe that my girls are going to be seniors in high school next year. I can't believe that January is almost over and I only have three months left of school FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

Life happens so fast. That's what I'm thinking right now. I don't want to spend another minute being too tired to enjoy it. I don't really pay attention to being too tired and I have always said to Michelle that I for sure am too tired to stay up all night to study but I'm never too tired to stay up all night to talk. I want to stop saying in my head though that I'm too tired. I want to love every minute and soak it all in and cherish this moment. Right at this very moment, Sarah is on the phone next door talking to Molly and Susan and she is laughing and giving advice and being a good friend. This is a sweet moment and how I always want to remember Sarah. Just an hour ago we were at WyldLife club and while we were there, I was thinking how cool it was that middle schoolers get to do something so awesome on a Thursday night. One kid as we were leaving said "That was a really great club!" This is cool. This is a life worth living. I want to soak it all in.


I love this moment at the Jake concert last night when it was just candlelights and he sang Kentucky Moon.


I love this moment because I wanted to take a picture with these boys to send to Caitlin. We all worked at the Ranch together and for all my thoughts about the Ranch, I love the memories that I have there. I love that it can be a year and a half and we can get together and have tons of fun hanging out. I love that today I skyped with Caitlin because the bond we have isn't breakable by distance.

I don't want to miss this. I don't want to be too tired.
