We Live in a Beautiful World

We've been enjoying the Spring weather. It's really been beautiful. And it was just as beautiful today as it was two years ago when I married my sweet love. I got BEAUTIFUL tulips today and a card that sings Queen's "My Best Friend". Perfect!!!! I took some photos today of the trees and flowers, just because I can't get enough of the flowering trees... even if everyone else does! They just make me happy! Now the pines on the other hand... not so much. Stupid pollen. I think my kid is getting affected by it too.Ben's THIS close (imagine me putting my fingers REALLY close together in measurement) to walking. He's taken a few steps here and there, but is still not totally confident and still has some balance issues. But I know as soon as he gets it, he'll be running- not walking.
It was my mom's 72nd birthday Saturday. We as siblings got together an iChat conference with out her knowing and we all sang Happy Birthday to her. She was tickled! I'm like 100% sure it made her day. I am so grateful to have a wonderful mommy, even though I'm oh so far away from her- she helps me and supports me so much and I appreciate it. I can't wait to see them. Hopefully it will be soon. I am very homesick. Stupid economy.
Last year when my parents came out to visit, my dad and Ryan planted a Purple Leaf Plum tree for Ben. We call it "the Ben tree". It bloomed this year and the leaves are now starting to come out. I think it's quite lovely and I hope we have years to enjoy watching both our Benny and the tree grow!
I am so tired. I don't ever feel like I can catch up. No, I'm not pregnant. I think being a full time working mommy and wife starts to wear on you after a while. I need a vacation! Have I mentioned how excited I am that Andrea is coming next month???? Cuz I am. YAY! Okay, I'm going to finish watching Biggest Loser and go to sleep.
