Jun. 13, 2008 - Just touching base
Well, I wish I had something wonderfully exciting or inspiring to write about, but truthfully I do not. I have been feeling unusually quiet these days. There is alot going on that I *could* ramble about, but honestly I just don't have any desire to do so. Weird, huh? I'm verbally lazy. I have been lurking a bit catching up on bloggy friends, but I haven't even been leaving many comments! I've noticed that many others have also taken a break from blogging. Just feeling quiet.... reflective..... thoughtful.... I guess.
I had hoped that the summer would be relaxing and care free which has not panned out so far. We have had a bazillion doctor, ortho, and dentist appointments... URG!!! We have started taking piano lessons again (which is working out great...praise the Lord!) and Davis is preparing for his trip to Europe (in 16 days!!!) So, they have not been the lazy days of summer I had envisioned, but it's all good stuff. Maybe now that all the appointments are out of the way we can relax by the pool.
So, just thought I'd touch base and say "Hi". I'll be back when I'm chatty again. Happy summer! 
*edit 5 minutes later* Wow, I'm feeling chattier already!!! 
Maybe I just needed to get going!? Okay, a neat thing happened today! The kiddos and I have been doing a mini-unit study on the government and the election process, which has been very fun, and today we were discussing the three branches of government and what the functions are of each branch. So, right after discussing the Legislative Branch (Senate and Congress), who do you think came a 'knockin' at the door? Representative Stacey Campfield that's who! The kids were very excited...and I think he's a very handsome Irish looking fellow. I also liked his flyer...I agree with many of his positions on issues like preventing eminent domain abuse, opposing tolls roads, and protecting human life (at any stage). I think I'll vote for him! Lily asked me to vote once for her, too, since she's not old enough to vote for herself! So there you have it!
