No Words to Explain This One...


I have arrived at a point in my life where I do not have words to describe where I am. I looked around today and soaked in my blessings. In the face of tragedy (of several friends), I am left to remember how blessed I am. Why do we forget our blessings? My kids are so amazing and yet, I forget that sometimes. My husband is completely wonderful and I don't remind him enough. I am lucky that I was given the opportunity this week to remember God's Grace and his amazing work in my life. W is in the third grade and is doing great. He loves his teacher and his maturing (until he gets home and then he lets it all out!). J adores his Kindergarten teacher and is in seventh heaven when he gets to go to school. He is excited to try his hand at wrestling this winter. C is learning how to survive without her binky and diaper this month. She is so very proud of herself. These are such small, yet important parts of our life. I need to write more and remember more.

An Adventure Just Around the Corner.


Well, we are surviving the cold and enjoying good health. Funny how you don't appreciate good health until it is gone. We live our day moving forward with great speed until we are down for the count. In the month of January, Dan and I had strep, then Claire, then Claire got a virus for a few days, then stitches for James, and Will was sick with a bug. Let's hope January is behind us and a healthy February will ring in!




We sold our Lakeside condo and I am sad but, keeping my hopes up that new adventures await. We are ready for a different type of adventure. It appears that our new adventure will be a large pull behind camper with all kinds of goodies to take us around the U.S. of A. More family time to be had.
