What a week.......



Yeah!!!! It's Friday!!!!
It has been a fun, snowy, exhausting, and good week.  School projects are slowly coming together, my goal of having home-cooked meals at the table (not the counter) every night is going pretty good.  We only had one pizza delivery night (still eaten at the table ) when I started getting a migraine.  It has been a good thing.  We have had more enjoyable evenings and have had more good conversations.  Nicholas has been the entertaining one this week.  Sunday night I was trying to have a spiritual conversation about a story we heard in Stake Conference about a mothers prayers being answered.  So I re-told them the first part of the story and was getting rather emotional, and asked then what mom's do for their kids when they need help.  Prayer was the aswer I was looking for, but Nicholas (without missing a beat) pipes up and says ," They cry." I said no, and he says, "You cry all the time and you're crying now."  Needless to say, I couldn't change his mind.  Then the next day it was Nicholas's turn to say the morning family prayer, so he starts by asking for Greg to be safe and have a good day at work, then he asked for him and Nathan and Noah to have a good and safe day at school, he then says, "And please bless mom......... (long pause).... uh, mom - what DO you do all day?"  After the laughter stopped (not mine) he said to bless me to DO SOMETHING today.  *sigh*
Oh well.  Someday when he is on his mission, he will know what it is I do all day and wish I was there to do it for him.

New Year - New Blog!

So I was checking out my last blog - and it has been almost 2 years since my last post. Well, that's how it goes. So I have decided to try it again. Only this time I am trying a simpler format and service. The last one was meant for a computer literate genius - which my husband who set it up for me IS, I however am not. So here we go again! Yeah me!!!
