Hello, soccer...

Tonight was the girls' first soccer practice. Wouldn't you know the girls do not have practice the same nights. This means we'll only have Tuesday evenings free-so sad. Such is life with kids I suppose. See, I told you I didn't have time for this...

First day of School

Okay, some moms cry when their little ones go off to Kindergarten, right? For me- well, it was not exactly like that. Mine was more like tires screeching out of the parking lot. I will say I felt a little guily about not walking her in on the first day, but I knew her big sister would look out for her. I did feel better after talking to The Brains and he reassured me that letting her go in on her own was not considered neglect and that we wanted our children to be the independent type. Both girls were very happy this afternoon and I am glad things will soon be settling down. Oh but then there's the new puppy.......

On the advice of a friend, I am launching my blog! I totally do not know what I am doing so bear with me. Here's why I hesitated to get started...#1--I'm not all that computer literate so I have to call on my husband constantly when I am trying to do something. #2 I am not a great typist-writing a funny story could take me hours. #3 Who is gonna read it? #4 Where will I find the time to write or the energy to be amising?
Reasons why I'll do it anyway--#1--I love to read other peoples blogs. I was especially inspired by one mom who posts letters to her children on their birthdays and I'd like to try that. #2-- I am keeping up with an old friend by reading her blog, so maybe I can find long lost friends to correspond with. #3 I was voted wittiest girl in 8th grade. #4 I love funny stories about kids.

I hope someone, somewhere will enjoy this as much as I know I will!!!
