Busy weekend...

Hey Blog Readers! Here we are at another Sunday afternoon and I am pooped! Weekends are supposed to be for catching up on sleep and being lazy so that you are ready for the week ahead...not so much this weekend. Kate and I cleaned the cabin on Saturday and got it all ready for summer! Bring on the 80's!

When I got home from the cabin Brent asked if I had been to the garden yet--because OUR LETTUCE SPROUTED!!!!! Wheeehooooo!! It only took the lettuce 5 days to grow! That was exciting news.

Sunday I had a bridal shower for Jill (see funny picture from previous entry with 2 girls from many years ago--the girl dressed as a guy is Jill :) ) then we finished up the afternoon at our nephew Caleb's 3rd birthday party. I can't believe he's three already! Time goes by so fast!

Happy Birthday Caleb!!

Why Do I blog?

Welcome. Why do I blog? I blog for my two little girls so that when I am long gone, soaking up guilt-free sun rays, laying on a big fluffy cloud up in Heaven, they can remember. They can remember the simple things. The little things. Those things that are small to everyone else, but mighty to this mommy's heart. I want my children to know that not only the major milestones were remembered, but also the little milestones. Her first bike ride, her first bee sting, the first time she planted seeds in the garden. They will both know, not only were they loved deeply, but also the magnitude of that depth. Why not just journal? Because part of me hopes that in my day to day writing, someone out there in this mighty World can relate. Can relate to one little thing that runs through all of us--the desire to remember the times that made us laugh, smile, cry and most importantly, treasure our loved ones.
