I Have Wonderful Kids Awareness Month

With papers to write for school, midterms approaching, laundry to fold, meals to make, and dishes to scrub, I don't take enough time to get to know my kids. Mike and I get so many compliments about them from family, friends, and teachers. Everyone just loves a good dose of Job and Belle. They really are spectacular. I don't tell them nearly enough how wonderful they are. So, I'm declaring the month of October I Have Wonderful Kids Awareness Month.
