Update version ...?

This post is long overdue. Did you miss me? :) We have been busy doing sewing projects and reorganizing the house and other little things that take up so much time. I wish I had paid more attention when my mother had wanted to teach me how to sew years ago. Maybe I wouldn't be having such a hard time now. But the dresses came out cute...minor things could be better, but... We invented a card holder to keep all the punch cards and loyalty cards out of my wallet, and I made fabric envelopes for my weekly cash purchases. I'm pretty happy with the outcome.

We are once again in another state with hubby. The "house sitters" have a full time job, with the amount of travel that we do. The weather here is warmer but the pollen is killing me!!! I think that pollen is topping my icky list right before heat. Even with rinses and such, I can't breath unless I am inside with the air on. But outside is so pretty. We are in a larger place this time with 3beds and 2 bath. Pretty nice for a "hotel."

My prayers go out for everyone at the Boston Marathon today. I know people who race and that is a scary thing. Seems like we aren't "safe" anywhere and that more than ever we should be grabbing every moment to love our children and friends and family. We never know when God will choose to affect us with a tragedy.

The children are growing so big. The eldest is studying high school biology and coming up with things that blow my mind. (Did I even learn this?) The big man is about to be seven and I just can't believe how happy he is to be doing math and inventing things or making things better. He really is his dad's mini me. The four year old is drama. She is going to make it big someday being a diva. Shoes matter. Hair matters. Accessories matter. Keep in mind that they might not match and/or look even remotely good... but it is a statement. Kinda like... I DID IT MYSELF! :) The youngest is two already. <sigh> talking up a storm and "me do it" is her favorite tag line. I love watching them every day and making memories. They are so comical.

Not a lick of continuity here but I really do switch gears like this, so... Have a blessed evening and I will post again... sometime. :P
