Hello, All! Remember me? The keeper of this blog?!
I really hadn’t intended on being absent for so long. My computer died and I was using Len’s for a while. Every time I used Len’s computer…there wasn’t really time for blogging. So it took a back seat…
There is so much to write. There is so much I had wished I could blog about. Life has REALLY changed. I will spare you from every detail, and just tell of some of what God has done in our lives.
Our summer was fruitful in both the garden and our lives! It was amazing. We grew closer as a family. Len and I both to each other and to our children.
This past summer/fall I spent most any spare minute that I had in organizing our home. I don’t believe our home has ever actually been organized. I would have one room, maybe two rooms organized at a shot, but never the entire home. Organizing took several trips to the local consignment shop as well as to the thrift store and dumpster. I think perhaps the kids’ closets need organizing once again, but I can honestly say that I know what we have and where it is. LOL! This makes our lives SOOOOOOO much easier.
We also switched our house all around to include Len’s office to be downstairs, out of our bedroom, and into the dining room. We switched the living room and dining room and moved the TV upstairs. The kids still watch videos here and there upstairs, but no more being glued to the television. We LOVE it that way. They are so much more creative and their imaginations have simply flourished!!
Monday-Thursday I have started watching three boys, ages 5, 3, and 8 months. I watch them for 3 hours and make a bit of money to help out. I think God rewarded me for getting my house in order. Because of this I was able to buy a new laptop…nothing big and special just a simple netbook, which makes me even more organized when it comes to youth group and church stuff. My iPod is wonderful, but I get a little cross eyed reading everything on that sometimes.
So…this is our life. I will update more and here and there on the children and our doings.
God is good and I thank Him for this wonderful life He gives me!!!
So we went outside today to enjoy it! This was the first time since she can walk that Moriah has been outside to play!! The snow was so high and it was so cold around here that it wasn’t wise to take her out before today! She LOVED it! She’s a little daredevil though and I quickly found the swing and put her in it so she didn’t get hurt on the ice! She giggled loudly with each swoosh of the swing. It was very amusing!!
He also enjoyed his slide! He has a small little tikes slide inside this winter, but nothing beats a “big” slide!! He can climb it all by himself now without scaring mommy and he LOVED it! He screamed WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Mommy couldn’t help but smile at them! They’re just so darn cute!
So until all of this melts out of the yard and fields…
We are THRILLED with 49 degrees!!!
