Not because of any problems or complications, but because I am bigger and older. I feel like all I do is complain. Luckily I have a very nice husband who takes good care of me.

Holy cow, I feel super old. I have no idea where the time has gone. As I look at our wedding photos (which by the way are so old, they are not digital!) I can see how much we have aged in 11 years. It is a little bit scary. I don't feel 11 years older, I don't feel 11 years wiser, it is a strange feeling to know that physically I am aging. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">As I look back at this 11 years I have a lot of emotion. Many things have happened. </div><div style="text-align: left;">* I married a great guy.</div><div style="text-align: left;">* I moved out of my parents house.</div><div style="text-align: left;">* I went to Nursing school, and became a nurse.</div><div style="text-align: left;">* We've traveled to: the Dominican Republic, Hawaii, California, Nevada, Idaho, Texas, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, New York, Vermont, Connecticut, New Jersey, Arizona, Massachusetts, & Maine.</div><div style="text-align: left;">* We've lived in three states: Utah, Arizona, and Massachusetts.</div><div style="text-align: left;">* Len attended Medical School and graduated!</div><div style="text-align: left;">* We've had two, almost three children in three different states.</div><div style="text-align: left;">* Lived in 5 different dwellings.</div><div style="text-align: left;">* Been in more fights than I can count.</div><div style="text-align: left;">* Laughed a lot, and cried too.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">It has been a long 11 year, that has gone by quicker than I ever thought possible. I would say that I can't wait for the next 11 years, but that would be a lie. I am just excited to be in the here and now. In 11 years I am going to be well into my 40's and I am not ready for that just yet!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I love you Len, thanks for putting up with me for the last 11 years!</div>Amber Jensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05677305640874587122noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1968745402415398528.post-91368634561705237642011-04-25T05:56:00.000-07:002011-04-25T06:18:09.125-07:00<div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#CC33CC;">happy easter!</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#CC33CC;"><br /></span></span></div><div>I got home from my trip just in time for easter.

Abbie just couldn't sit and watch. She kept running out onto the field to "tell the boys something". She was driving me crazy. I thought for sure she was going to get hit with a ball or a bat! Owen seemed to really enjoy it, and he even got a hit! We look forward to the rest of the season!

I was going to be the perfect Mom. I read all the books, and I was set. Little did I know, that my children had a different plan. They couldn't just let me be the perfect mom. They had to teach me some much needed lessons. Becoming a Mother has been the most humbling experience I have ever had. I have had to carry a kicking and screaming child out of many a store while others watched. I have had my shirt pulled down, and up in public. I have chased my children through more stores than I can count. I have had to pay for countless treats my children have opened and eaten before I could stop them. I have been humiliated more times than I can count. Luckily for me, with each experience I have become a little more patient. I have learned to laugh at myself. I have also learned to really appreciate my Mother. This job isn't for just anyone. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8vjAJ7hZqw42KwOWMgIA6U3GhYM6U5WY7GDxOb2yfvireHUhMP_Fc92UpvqxzO82DPeRBR-aLKkbm8JykC252jm7moHXJLOlekd638lwR-x0Zly1qJtbL7yXSsuP0JpQ983hiWFy483bw/s1600/DSC06071.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8vjAJ7hZqw42KwOWMgIA6U3GhYM6U5WY7GDxOb2yfvireHUhMP_Fc92UpvqxzO82DPeRBR-aLKkbm8JykC252jm7moHXJLOlekd638lwR-x0Zly1qJtbL7yXSsuP0JpQ983hiWFy483bw/s400/DSC06071.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5471121216715552546" /></a>I have also learned that not all moments in life have to be precious.

On our way home I happened to see an old, ugly dresser on the side of the road. It had a sign saying: {Take Me!} So that is just what I did. I brought it home and cleaned it off. I power sanded it for what seemed like years. Then I stained it, and varnished it. I was so excited to see it after all my hard work. When it dried, it didn't look very good. The varnish had soaked into the wood. Feeling a little annoyed, I put another two coats on, and I waited. But what I found when I returned, was an even uglier piece of furniture. I was not happy. So, Len had a great idea. He thought we should paint it. So I picked out some paint, and he got to work. He painted like a mad man. It has 7 coats in all (primer, paint, glaze and varnish). </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">*I am so happy with the results. </div><div style="text-align: center;">We put it in the dinning room.

It snowed around four inches that day. After picking Owen up from school I noticed a few driveways on our street that needed to be shoveled. We have quite a few retired people living on our street. I bundled up the kids and handed them each a shovel and informed them that we would be shoveling two of our neighbors driveways. Owen was less than thrilled with the idea, having just gotten home from school. After telling him he had no choice we began our service. About two minutes into it he was having so much fun! He loved it! In fact, he wanted to shovel some more driveways. I explained to him that when we help others it makes us happy. Our reward for helping others is the way it makes us feel. </div><div><br /></div><div>Now fast forward to the present time. As I unloaded the troops after school the other day, my neighbor came running over with gifts in hand. She told both Owen and Abbie how thankful she was for all the hard work they did, and how much she appreciated it. She then handed them each a gift! </div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFazsjFT5IW8r1AQv0zjf8ZUPHc2QpxaXQBYS4xpUGpUrt6cfo9w1Y6RAiodWBIeGK1Aatclir9lVJMNCfdn4CzIzf5CFdwUkP7uwJVY78I_-3yVxAIgiZ3_8D9TCQMvqQTT5jypxZ21tA/s1600-h/DSC05955.JPG"><br /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFazsjFT5IW8r1AQv0zjf8ZUPHc2QpxaXQBYS4xpUGpUrt6cfo9w1Y6RAiodWBIeGK1Aatclir9lVJMNCfdn4CzIzf5CFdwUkP7uwJVY78I_-3yVxAIgiZ3_8D9TCQMvqQTT5jypxZ21tA/s400/DSC05955.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447856684109614354" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">*Owen can't wait to help someone else!*</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-decoration: underline;"><br /></span></span></div>Amber Jensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05677305640874587122noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1968745402415398528.post-28488292873631871822010-02-25T15:13:00.000-08:002010-02-25T15:42:13.899-08:00<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FF0000;">sloppy </span></span><span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FF0000;">Joe's</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I am officially a working girl! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I just started my new job.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"> The pay is nothing to write home about, and it has no benefits, unless you count yelling at children a benefit.
