Time keeps rolling along.....

Wow....How has some many days passed and I haven't had a moment to sit down and write my thoughts. As I sit here I am thinking about how quickly time passes. We just celebrated Tyler's 12th birthday last Thursday. It still doesn't seem possible that he could have turned 12. I am so silly sometimes. I didn't have the heart to take down all the decorations until today. I figured I needed to since Berkley's birthday is on the horizon. We need a least a week break before we do it all over again.

Vince's mother and her husband Don visited with us this weekend. It was a wonderful time in our house full of the excitement of having company. I think that Grandma and Don were exhausted after such a weekend. Grandma was taught how to play King Frog. I am sure she will never forget such an experience.

Berkley and Tyler also got to sign up to play Lacrosse! They are so excited and so are we. It will be much easier with them playing the same sport. Practices are on the same day and games are on the same day. This will be awesome cardio as we get geared up for swim season.

Madilyn is still my snuggle buddy. She woke up this morning with a bad cold and wasn't quit like herself. I am hoping she will sleep peacefully tonight. She is still recovering from her broken foot. Yep, that foot is still swollen. But, she is still smiling and as happy as ever.

Vince is back to morning football workouts. I have volunteered to drive the kids to school so they don't have to go so early with there dad. Do you know how many weeks it is until the 1st game of the next season? Well.....I am not sure either. I will have to ask Vince and get back to you.

Me, I am still plugging along. I did get a job with the newspaper. No, I am not writing for it....I am going to be delivering it. This is just a temporary thing just to help out with some of our overwhelming medical stuff. I might be a little fruity adjusting to the early morning hours. But, I am never one to not do something when it needs to be done. So, I accept this challenge and will smile because I am able to do it for my family. Nothing is more important to me than loving my family.

As you can see, our life is very full right now. The house is quiet and I should be headed off to bed. I will close this post. I will let this day end and I will retire with a grateful heart. Our life is full of challenges right now, but it is still a wonderful happy life. The sun is shining upon us even when the clouds just seem to want to linger.

That is true, time keeps rolling. How fun they are playing the same sport! We have all 4 boys signed up for baseball so at the end of Feb our life will be hectic but fun. Keep up the good work!
