welcome, 2008

wow!  that is about all I can say about 2007 ... nothing monumental happened ... we ate, we breathed, we grew and we slept.  Because this is my first post of the New Year I will leave out that we fought, we pouted, we complained and we realized that we don't currently make enough money to cover all of the kids extra-curricular activities.  BUT, all in all, it was a great year and one that I am certainly thankful for.

While I have spent a lot of time in the past few days being reflective, pensive and basically "psycho in my head" I have given lots of time and thought to the three following categories which  I will discuss shortly...

1. money, money money money!

2. we just have way too much crap in the house ... no wonder 5 minutes after everyone comes home from school it appears that a whirlwind has struck the house

3. parenting, discipline, "liking your kids", etc.

Chew on those for a while and I will be back to discuss later!
