Compromise.

There is a lot going on in our world. Some of it, I am not at liberty to discuss right now, some of it, I cannot wait to show you!!

Autumn has been finding little places to hide and then popping out for peek a boo. It reminds me so much of my sister, Madeline. Madeline would stow away in some strange places and sometimes wait so long in them to be discovered, that she would fall asleep. It cracks me up when Autumn does this:

PEEK A BOO!!!

This afternoon Dylan came over to visit with Autumn. One of their favorite toys in the yard is the car. Both of them love it. Cindy and I were inside when I heard Autumn grunting. I said to Cindy, "Autumn must be going to the bathroom." A few minutes later, we hear Dylan grunting. We go outside to see what is happening and this is what we find.

Compromise
What is a boy to do when the girl won't give up the driver seat? I suppose this was their version of a compromise!! Dylan will handle the wheel, whilst Autumn takes care of the pedals!!! Got to love these two.

As for the rest that is going on. You will find out in due time.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
