Do Not Disturb

Bekah made me a "do not disturb" sign. Yesterday, she had a friend over from school and they were playing puppies. They made their own "do not disturb" signs so that they could take a "puppy nap". I remarked that I needed one of those. I guess she heard me because tonight she made me my very own sign to hang around my neck. I don't know if any of my children understand the concept of "do not...

RESOLUTION!

So, the whole reason I started this blogging thing was so that I could not feel guilty about not writing in a journal every day. However, I haven't blogged since October! I feel guilty. Anyway, I decided to make a resolution (OK, I know New Year's was like 6 weeks ago, but I have been busy!) to blog every day. Even if it is just a sentence. So that at the end of the year, I can get it printed...

Funny quote

"Masquerading as a normal person day after day is exhausting!" Just read this on a website and I just had to laugh, because it is so true! Maybe I am the only one who feels this way, but since I am not normal, how would I know? ...
