Oh Spring, where art thou?

Oh, how I yearn for the warm weather. I cannot wait to take all four kids onto the lake for the first time this spring. The lake is an opportunity to get away from it all, and just get out there and enjoy the beautiful weather and family. I miss it so much in the winter. It will be here soon enough I guess.....

The year has already passed by so quickly, that I cannot even believe that it is already the 3rd month of the year. Where does the time go? My grandmother is right when she says the older you get the faster the time passes. It seems that my kids are going to be young teenagers all too soon. The fact that my kids are spread over ten years really brings home how quickly the grow. My oldest daughter will be in middle school next year and will never attend the same school with her siblings again. (unless they end up at the same graduate school at the same time)

I am supposed to be blogging every week, we see how that has worked out. It has been almost a year and I haven't typed one syllable. :)

I need to come up with a clever name for a new blog. I wonder if the names I am coming up with are already taken. I guess I will find out! That's all for now.

First Blog

So people tell me that blogging is therapeutic. I will see about that. I am sitting here thinking about how peaceful the house is when the baby is sleeping and how that contrasts to when all of the kids are awake and active, how different it is!

Anyway the news if depressing, and life is hard, what is new?

I have been watching the reports about this abortion doctor being gunned down in his church and I am so torn about the justification for the shooting. I think it is poetic that he was shot in his church. How could someone who kills babies on a daily basis, be so "christian". I believe God has a plan. When these women come into his clinic many, many months pregnant and he kills their baby for them and calls it a medical necessity he is committing murder plain and simple. I have many thoughts about this, but I cannot put them all down right now.

My girls are gone for the week, and I will be picking them up this weekend. Counting the days.
