Whew, how long since I've written? But there's alot to write about but really nothing. I spend my time:
1. caring for grandmunchkins
2. reading: my Bible, a new book by Max Lucado, emails, blogs, ravelry when I'm not doing number 1
3. trying to keep up on laundry, cooking, other house chores that get behind due to number 1
4. trying to keep my husband from thinking he's an afterthought due to number 1
5. editing the pictures I take of number 1 and even printing a few but forget the scrapbooking
6. enjoying a cup of coffee two times a day in between feeding #1
7. still working on those quilts
8. walking everyday and started stomach exercises to help my aching back due to number 1
But oh the rewards of number 1: smiles, laughs, reading Good Night Moon for the umpteenth time, hearing about kindergarten from one who's livin' it, peaceful sleeping babies, the howling during "tummy time".....I'll get back to the knitting and scrapbooking someday when the pictures are great memories. Right now I'll live with the present.
I sure do envy you. Lately, I have been wanting to go back to being a homemaker. After nursing school and working 1 1/2 yrs, I took an 11 yr break to raise my kids. I went back to work and now that all kids are adults, I am wishing how nice it would be to do what your doing...this time with the grand kids or rather my one granddaughter. I am constantly struggling and asking God to show me what he wants me to do.
