counting down

i just cut apart the dress i bought to alter into a pattern for my wedding dress. i will go cut the material now, i am feeling very guilty though because it is rachels birthday (my sister in law) and i totally forgot and we worked together all day. i am going to the theatre to get her some movie tickets so she can go on a date with douglas sometime. i am just terrible. it was jimees 18th birthday yesterday and i have been thinking about that. mikes birthday is saturday (the day we get married). one work day left (and dress sewing day). time just flies when you get old and have responscibility. i look at my kids how time is never ending with school and everything seems so long to them. it makes me giggle to look back and see now. school is going great so far for all of them. i am going to take care of being a bad sister in law now. and jovi, i have so many nice boy clothes for you i will send soon. i am putting together the things not worn out that jule has outgown or surpassed before ian outgrew. ian is a size slim, owen and jule are regulars so there are some things the other two have never worn. if zion can't use them then you can donate them to goodwill or whatever ya'll have back there. the box is still growing as the boys have been home only two days and i am going through their things for school.
