we are busy.
crazy busy, really.
so is everyone else though.
i don't like to just march along in the way of the world very often.
i like the beat of our drum better.
sometimes the way of the world gets to me though ... i mean,
lacrosse, dance, golf league, soccer, baseball, oh my!
we also work, go to school and do our homework, try really hard to eat dinner as a family (even if it's picnic style at the soccer field like it was tonight), play with friends, take a lot of pictures, go to the store to keep this house full of food, try to clean and straighten up and keep the laundry moving.
it's feeling like, too much right now.
i take on a full load, then i back off, then i balance and lose my balance.
it keeps life exciting!!
one of the reasons i started this blog is so that i will remember "how i did it!"
i'm not sure how i do it, really ... i put one foot in front of the other.
somedays are much better than others.
i'm very thankful the slate gets wiped clean with sleep every night!
well, our busy-ness does slow down a little bit sometimes.
like when i got the chance to have four extra kiddos for a sleepover.
we got to hang close to home, and everybody had a friend.
our home was bursting with energy and lots of loud fun!!
sydney even spent five minutes modeling for me.
syd, you are so cute, fun, and helpful! i'm grateful i get to watch you grow into a beautiful young woman. i love you.
