Bringing in the New Year...
Christmas has come and gone! The month of December always seems to fly by... does time really fly when you're having fun? I think the saying should go as follows: "Time flies when you've got two boys!"... :) I'm never really sad to see Christmas go - even though I love the season. It's just that I actually enjoy cleaning my house and getting things back to normal (whatever 'normal' is!). Call me crazy, but I just like staying organized... you guys all know that! Ha ha!
December was a great month! Hectic, but great. The boys enjoyed Christmas so much, and I enjoyed watching them so much! Landen is into Santa and how it all works this year... it was fun watching the wheels turn as he asked questions like, "How does he get in if we don't have a fireplace?" and after coming out of his room Christmas morning, he took one look at his presents, put his hands on his hips and exclaimed: "HOW DID HE DO THAT?". Too funny!
The boys continue to grow and make life fun! Daily they do something or say something to make me laugh. Graden got stuck under an end table just last week! Oh, it was priceless. I just don't remember what I laughed at before I had kids. Friends, maybe? :) Ha!
Speaking of friends... I'm still so excited that I got to catch up with so many of my old, dear friends! What fun it was to tell old stories and laughed until it hurt!
Phil is thriving! He loves substitute teaching... he has one week left of a long term assignment after the break. He hopes to land another long term, but said he'll be ok with floating around and meeting new teachers at other schools if he can only sub. It's nice to see him accomplish such a major goal. The boys and I are so proud of him! :)
I'm thinking of taking a class at IPFW next semester... Just a writing (of course) class online. Not sure though. (I know, I know - nothing like waiting until the last minute!) :)
I'll keep you posted. :)
I hope the holidays were as cheerful for you as they were for us. We have a lot to be thankful for... and we continue to pray for those who are not as fortunate, and for our friends who are struggling with their children's health.
Love to all!
