I was visiting a blog that has a link to my blog on it. I clicked on it and could not believe that it has been just over a whole year since I have posted.
Wow.
A whole year of stuff that is over. I can't believe it!
I don't even know what to post about anymore. I have thought about the blog here and there. I have felt guilty....having a blog for about 5 years with our life...my life documented and then a year with nothing.
We'll see. I'd like to get back to it. I would like to start a new one...about my job as a kindergarten teacher. But, I don't know.
I guess I could do a bullet point post. I have done them in the past. It sort of updates us?
Kellyn:
- is 18.
- is a senior...but only for a short time longer.
- is figuring out which college she will go to. She applied to 5. Got into 3. Did not get into 1. And has not heard from one yet.
- She knows where she wants to go though.
- she works at a grocery store.
- she is so mature and grown up.
- A friend of mine had a conversation with Kellyn last week and described her as an "asolute gem" among other things. When sharing this, so many agreed. And I received more adjectives about her.
- I had lunch with Kellyn on Thursday and it was really nice. She is changing and growing up.
Katie:
- is 15 3/4.
- a sophomore.
- stopped dancing for a while. When I saw that my last post was from a performance of hers, my heart became sad. It is such a long story and one I won't share here.....not that anyone reads this anymore....but it's been a difficult 6 months for my dancing girl...
- She just transferred to a new school. It is tiny. It is perfect for her right now. I am praying it was the right thing to do but feel strongly that it was. It feels like I am homeschooling withouth homeschooling....sort of.
- has done a smidge of driving..we need to take her out more and she will take drivers ed and hopefully, she will have her license before summer is over. Wow.
Johnny:
- is 8.
- is in 2nd grade.
- is still my sweet little dude. my buddy. my God send.
- but he has his days ;)
- is playing piano. He just finished learning "the Enterainer" and is now learning "Tonights gonna be a good night".
- is so independent. :(
- did DI again this year...I see him in the pictures from last year....sigh.....he had his competition 2 weeks ago, although he is in the "non-competitive" age group still.
- still in Cub Scouts. We just came from the "Blue and Gold" ceremony. He likes Scouts.
- finished basketball and baseball starts soon.
John:
- is so busy.
- Doing what? Here goes: Chiropractic. He is working alone in the office.....so the workload is huge. He is still a call firefighter in Bedford. Still loving it. Is now involved with the Association. Is the chair of the NH STate board of chiropractic examiners. Lots of work. Den leader. Coach. Played basketball again. Still a huge UNC Tarheels fan :)
Me:
- started the year as a Kindergarten teacher at the school I have been teaching pre-school at.
- love my job. Only 9 kids in my class....perfect way to start!
- Mom.
- I have not scrapped in over a year. I miss it but I don't have time. So sad.
- I hardly ever take pictures anymore......so sad.
- I don't read nearly as often as I'd like to or as I used to. So sad.
- I fail at keeping in touch with friends.
- I am so consumed by Facebook.....it's crazy.
- I miss life as it was 5 years ago.....but, life goes on. Changes happen and whether we like it or not, we all grow. Kids grow but so do we.
- I am incredibly blessed in this life and I pray that I never forget it. I pray I will remain humble and gracious.
And that is a quick summary. Except!!! WE moved! I forgot....sheesh. We moved a street away last June. It's my parents' house (they moved) and we love it.
I don't know when or if I will continue the blog....
