O.K. , I'm not sure the world is ready for this but yes, I did it. Not only am I back into my blog but I acually got a picture on it to. (thanks Jillian-she gave me a mini lesson in putting pic's on)
Yesterday was Landon's 18th Birthday and I have to admit I spent some of the day wondering how this could be! I spent time remembering how I never thought there would be peace and quiet in the house and now I'm not sure what to do with it. (but I'm working at it!) I spent time remembering the sleepless nights in the rocking chair, going from bed to bed with sick kids, going through a whole loaf of bread at lunch time, tents in the living room, marching bands around the house, dancing with everyone-even friends in the neighborhood and so, so much more. If I have any advice to give to any mother it would most certainly be: Hold your kids close to you long and tight, you'll be surprised at how one day you will long for that feeling. Don't sweat the small stuff-that will be the things you miss the most. When you are up late or up all night with cranky or sick kids-be kind. All to soon you will be thinking "I would give anything to be up holding my kids". When people say this is the best time of your life. Well, on that one I would say, "Learn to live in the moment and every time can be the best time.
O.K., O.K. so I got carried away. Just remember I love you all. Mom, Grandma, Nants
