So much to say, not enough words.

I can't believe that life goes by so fast. I can't believe that i have a daughter who is 8 1/2. Just seems like yesterday she was just born - i wonder if you always remember the day each of your children were born as if it just happened that day. My Madeline is going to 1st grade! Are you KIDDING me? The twins just turned 2 1/2 last weekend, June 13th. Didn't we just bring them home from the hospital, Sarah 7 days later than Samantha? They are talking, potty trained, becoming very independent. How sad, but how exciting to see them all grow up and learn the ways of the world. And finally my husband... together for 11 years, married for 7, next month. What a great family and how lucky we all are. Yes, we have our rough patches, but at the end of the day, we know what is important and we hold on to that and get through the days. I wouldn't change any of it - the good or the bad. It shapes us into who we are and makes us stronger.
Today, an old friend and her family are coming over for a picnic! My kids(and me) are so excited! Let's pray that the rain holds out so we can swim and have a great time!
