I'm Baking my Blues away....

So today was a hot end of the summer kind of day. The Mr. & I did some housework around the house. I have been working alot lately, so I wanted to be prepared for the week. Also this morning, the Mr. made me coffee and a wonderful breakfast. Yup, Breakfast and coffee with a little bit of sarcasm under his breath. This weekend was so much fun, we went to a family reunion for the Mr.'s side of the family! I love hearing all the stories and looking at all there faces to see the resemblance. Everybody looked so happy! Not to mention the food. I'm going to have to start a recipe book. I have been looking through some old recipe books. I need to scan them and make a book. So after the family reunion the Mr. surprised me by taking me to Our beach. The one we got married at. We got there around 3 o'clock in the afternoon and it was beautiful. See it's always windy there and there was no breeze in sight. The beach had changed alot. The water was more inland and had washed the point away. The water was not cold at all. I love walking along the water looking for agates with the Mr.. See before I had meet the Mr., I had only gone to the beach as a little girl with my mom. As I had grown older small things like just going to the beach didn't fit into my life. I wish I could have taken B more to the beach when she was little. The Mr. has such good memories of his childhood at the beach. I'm kinda jealous. Well we are making Our own memories now, I guess. Back to this weekend, when we got home, the Outlaws were at the races. We fell asleep before they got home. It was nice. Today was good, until I spoke to R on the phone. See I love our conversations on the phone because I could just imagine every impression she has with every word that comes out of her mouth. Well, R just turned 14 in May and has decided she is responsible to have a boyfriend.  I do not agree with this at all. My heart just hurts thinking about this. She has informed me that Friday she kissed him 3 times. 3 Times!! I'm just besides myself. I can't help thinking about when I was 14 and all the mistakes I made. Wishing now that I had listened to my mother. B & R's father says I need to be thankful our kids our honest. The X and I have never seen eye to eye. So this evening I have been just feeling so disconnected from my girls. This feeling happens to me at least 3 times a day. This feeling consumes me. I needed something to get my mind off of the horrible news I just got, so I started baking! I'm baking "The OMg my 14yr old daughter kissed a boy 3 times Cupcakes (really just butter pecan mix, frosted with milk chocolate frosting). Some how it just makes it better. Tomorrow is another day.  But for right now another cupcake! Good night.
