Heck on Wheels




Samantha is just growing before our eyes. I can't believe that she is riding a two wheeler at 4 years old. She loves to be riding about with her brothers and the other neighborhood boys, but those training wheels were just slowing her down.

Once I was comfortable with her ability to balance on the Razor, I thought it was time to take those wheels off. She was a little wobbly at first, but she has gotten the hang of it. She can even get herself started, if and only if, she's on an incline not unlike our driveway.

This is my baby. This is my little girl and I'm a little sad that she is growing up so fast......That's a lie. I'm so proud of her. I'm so excited for her excursions and becoming more independent each day. I love that we can have conversations and talk over making bracelets and necklaces with her beads. I love that she tried to read the book along with my at night time. She is truly an
amazing little person and one that I love bunches.

Checking In

Just wanted to let everyone know I'm still around. I have some pictures of the last day of school I've been wanting to blog about but haven't found the time.

I've started writing my Dad's biography. It is amazing to learn new things about my Dad that I have never known. He has some amazing stories to tell and some very funny things that have happened in his life. I'm starting to get re-acquainted with my "writers" side. I bet you didn't know that about me, huh?

So between keeping my kids' brains exercised, keeping my body exercised, keeping everyone fed, and writing, I have little energy left over for blogging. I'm trying to save Sunday afternoons for it, but as always, those get filled up rather quickly and unexpectedly.
