Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are…
Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect Tomorrow.
One day I shall dig my nails into the earth,
or bury my face in my pillow,
or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky
and want, more than all the world, your return.

October 4 Meal Plan

Big week around here! Or not. We'll see.

You see, Julianna's scheduled to get her braces and palate expander on Tuesday. Should I say brace? Right now she only has 1 permanent tooth on top to work with, but they felt they needed to get started as soon as possible. Unfortunately, she has 2 very large canker sores in her mouth and I'm not sure if we're going to go ahead or wait until they're gone. Julianna gets lots of canker sores. Ouch! Anyone have experience with this? I can't figure out why she gets them. She doesn't eat a lot of citrus, I truly have no idea why she gets them. Anyway, if we go ahead with the braces food for the first few days will need to be nice and soft.

Finally, at the end of the week, Rebekah will be home for the first time since early September. I.can't.wait! It will be wonderful to be with her again.

So, here's the plan for the week:

Sunday dinner: Brats, German Potato Salad, applesauce Chicken nuggets & noodles for J&J
Monday (kid's presentation, dance): Chicken Cacciatore, pasta, salad, bread
Tuesday (piano, dance): Chicken & noodles, wheat rolls, pumpkin bars
Wednesday (brownies):
Thursday (dance & cubs): Crockpot Shredded chicken sandwiches, broccoli rice casserole , canned green beans
Friday (Rebekah!!!!): Pork Roast, potato pancakes & applesauce, brussels sprouts (unless she wants to pick something else, which is completely fine. )

Sunday is my meal plan day. I map it all out, go to the grocery store while all the kids nap.

A full fridge with a plan....refreshing!

This is random, but a friend of mind got a lot of canker sores from artificial sweetener found in things like sugar free gum and diet soda.

Ah, ortho work for the kids. We're still dealing with our 18 year in braces.

It absolutely amazes me how much money it costs for orthodontists these days. Oh my!

And a palate extenderer? I wore one for 9 months when I was her age too!
