Shamo you need to call me!!!

Do you remember when we got to see eachother everyday?
Do you Remember when we dressed up together for Halloween and won the costume contest??
ok that didnt happen.

I havent talked to you for 24 hours! I have talked to your Mother in law 4 times today!
I miss you! Is this how it is going to be when I move to Oregon?
I sure hope not.

Shamo, you too can make a difference!

Miss

My Mom's the BEST!

I love my Mom so very much. For any of you who know me very well know already what a wonderful Mom I have! She always finds just the right way to say something to brighten my day! I got a letter in the mail yesterday (BTW I usually get 3-4 letters a week from my Mom, I know she is the best right!) I opened the letter and $10 fell into my lap not a 10 dollar bill but a 5 & 5 ones, it's like she opened her purse and said "hmmm what can I put in Marisa's letter!!"

I hope that Gracie & I have the same type of relationship with eachother as I have with my Mom!

Repeater

So it's amazing how quickly kid's can pick things up! I went and had dinner with my Sister in law, Kacee last night. She has a beautiful baby girl, Saige (2 months) & a Handsome little boy, Jaxson (2 years). We went back to their house after dinner. I went over to Jaxson to tell him goodnight & I said "Jaxson, whose your favorite Auntie?" His response melted my heart, "Miss is my favorite Auntie!" OK yes I did drill him with this for a little while but I really think he meant it when he said it! Oh How I am going to miss him & of course his Sister and Mommy & Daddy! :(

On another note it is also so amazing how kids pick things up when you don't want them to!
So my daughter Gracie (who I recently discovered has Bionic ears) had a sleep over at her cousins house last weekend. It was brought to my attention when I picked her up the following day that I have a "repeater on my hands!" Gracie's Aunt Audra proceeded to tell me a story...
She had taken Gracie & her Cousins to lunch and evidently Hunter (Gracie's cousin who is 4) was being a little rambunctious and Gracie turned to her Aunt and said "Audra is Hunter Hyper all day, everyday all of the time?" Audra said "Well Yes Gracie he is, why?" (How I wished Audra wouldn't have asked why!!!) Gracie's response not heart warming but gut wrenching " Do you know they have medication for that!"
All I have to say is she didn't pick that up from me... Also All I have to say is I am so grateful Audra thought it was funny!

Hands

I know cute huh...

So since Chad is over 600 miles away I thought it would be cute to make him a cookie and send it to his phone so he would be reminded how much he is loved right?

Instead of the ohh how cute baby, I love you so much! Are you ready... I got "Are those my Mom's fingers? "No they are not silly, I made the cookie for you" was my response! To dig himself even deeper he says " I know my Mom's hands when I see them, They are my Moms!" IS HE KIDDING ME?

I thought about how could I get him back! He makes it sound like it would be out of the norm for me to do something "cute"! So my response I think was classic... In an every so loving manner I typed "Shows you how long it has been since you held my hand"!!!

Relocating

It's about to be a new beginning. A New Moon for our Woolsey Family. My Husband, Chad has been living in Bend, Oregon since August and it has been a long 6 months to say the least! We have been waiting.. and waiting for our house to sell. It reminds me of a song I would like to sing to you.. I of course am going to change the words a little...

"Here we sit like birds in the wilderness, birds in the wilderness, birds in the wilderness. Here we sit like birds in the wilderness waiting for someone to buy our house!"

Ok after re-reading the above song I have decided it sounds like nothing I had imagined.. Sorry about that!

We have decided the long distance is to much to bare at this point. My daughter and I will be joining Chad in Oregon in February. The next few weeks are going to fly by I am sure. I hope with the interest rates dropping and the nice weather hopefully soon to follow our house will sale by spring.

I buried a picture of St. Joseph in my backyard. ( I know it is supposed to be a statue but I didn't have a statue available) My Mom says St.Joseph is probably pissed at me and he is freezing his A@@ off and that is why the house hasn't sold. If there wasn't so much snow in my back yard I would go bury him back up and bring him inside where it is warm, but truth be told I can't remember what area of the back yard he is in.. I can't afford to dig 50 small holes in my backyard to find him. Hopefully he understands. I hope St. Joseph keeps in mind my devout Catholic Parents who by the way named their eldest son after him. That has got to count for something! (BTW if you have no clue what I am talking about just ask & I will fill you in.. Also BTW The whole St. Joseph thing was my Mother's idea! :)
