The blog continues:

I don't know why I say I will...because I won't, but I try. Mostly, the last thing I want to do is blog, I want the stories and the photos, I just don't want to do it myself.

I am a lucky girl. That is the truth. I tell myself this often, I have struggles-things that seem Mt. Everest in the moment but really are just the facts of life in the long run. But really, life is good to me.



Our spring break was pretty peaceful. We had a zoo trip with friends and did some cleaning, and I had an alone trip to the dinosaur museum with Abram and Rosemary. My favorite part of the museum is the mammoth screen, I don't go to the theater often, but when I do, it is to the mammoth screen to learn about rocks!











Norah has a fun teacher who has the children put on some sort of presentation quite often. I haven't done my best to document this but here are a few:



Norah and Neptune. At least I think it was Neptune, I can't remember.





Norah as Josephina, her favorite character from a book.



Norah at her Christmas pageant.

Speaking of Norah, she was one of 90 children who tried out for the school talent show, about 20 were chosen and Norah was one. I am not a delusional parent, I can admit when my child wasn't great, but Norah was awesome. Seriously, one of the best. Brad had practiced with her for quite a while and she sang beautifully, played the tambourine perfectly, and kicked A on the harmonica. And when I figure out how to get it off of her video camera, I will post it on here.

I'm always so glad when you update. I wish I were better at staying connected (I'm a hermit, really) but I love you and think of you often.
