Not so bad

Things have been BUSY! I must say that they're running a lot more smoother than I thought they would. Norm has taken to his new home quite well and I hope that he falls more and more in love with it here. I actually sit here writing without anyone in my house. That's right ~ PEACE AND QUIET! I sent Gino and Jayden off to the movies and Ella off with my Grandma so I could actually get some work done. I LOVE IT!!!

My sister Britney ~ the one who's moving here, sent me a text and asked if she could have a part in my children's lives. She said that she really would love to get to know them, and that kinda put a smile on my face. I liked that she asked and I'm starting to realize that while we may be different, we have similar situations. She doesn't know me and she's probably just as reserved as I am.

I'm going to follow my dear friend Sam's advice of starting out with a friendship and not a sister relationship. I'm taking a deep breath and hoping it all goes well.
