So, needless to say, it's been a little while since my last blog. Way too long. So I will give you a quick chance to catch up with what all has been happening with us.
Josh is into video games. He's turning 5 next month and asking for plants vs. zombies for his birthday. It's amazing to me to sit back and see this sweet boy having his own opinions forming and whatnot. He's growing up!!! It's so crazy, it's happened so fast.
Hannah is growing up too. She's so much smarter than I would have ever dreamed up, and the concepts she grasped are just way beyond what your average 1st or 2nd grader should understand.
Jonah's just a little troublemaker. Hubs says he just gets bored and then go and misbehaves because he 1)doesn't know any better at all, and 2)he doesn't have anything better to do. If he is constantly having a change of pace, then in very short bursts, he does alot better. But he's got a short attention span unless he is being naughty!
We've started school already. The kids are doing really well, and I'm really actually loving having 2 kids in school vs. having just Hannah. It's been wonderful being able to interact with them and teach them one on one. We are doing some curriculum and some unit studies-specifically we are doing Unit studies on Social Studies.
I am writing again. You guys may not know this, but I've actually been writing things for years, but they've never seen the light of day for the most part. I've got several half finished projects, and things that I just stopped for one reason or another. It's kind of ironic because my grammar/punctuation/etc has become extremely lazy because of the internet, text, typing, and the like. BUT, I've got something right now I'm working on that I am really very excited about. I am more passionate than ever about trying to figure out where this project is going and what needs to be done, and it's become fresh and new to me again. I have a few things still on the back burner that it just wasn't the right time for, but what I'm working on now, is thrilling to me. It's new, it's a challenge, it's exhilarating, and I'm constantly (for the first time ever, and perhaps that's the difference) working at trying to make it better. I'm researching how to be a more effective storyteller, and using my writing as a vehicle to do something. So, I'm not sure if that makes any sense, but it feels good to say it (or write it) on here for someone, anyone really, to read.
Not that anyone reads this blog anymore, now that I had to make it private, but still. For those of you still hanging on, that's what I've been doing!!
