In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Eight Days to Go!

Filed under: General — Rachel at 9:23 pm on Saturday, June 17, 2006

We had Kyra’s party this afternoon, and it was a lot of fun. It was much less stressful on me having it at the park. We’ve always had their parties at home before. Park parties are the way to go. I didn’t have to clean for it! Kyra got lots of presents that were all right up her alley. Lots of princess stuff. She is all about the princesses. She’s playing with her princess Barbies right now, while wearing her princess gown. They had fun playing on the playground, and it turned out to not feel too awfully hot. Click here for some party pictures.

That takes care of all of my big obligations between now and Baby Day. We have church tomorrow, and I usually end up napping between services. During the week, I need to get the house cleaned up really well. Chris will be home until Thursday evening, when he goes back to work, so I’m hoping to get him to help me out with some of the household chore type stuff. Hopefully, this coming week will go by as quickly as this week has. I had a lot to do, so it really did pass pretty quickly. I’m just so excited to have this baby.

Rachel,
I happened upon your blog a couple of months ago and can really relate. I was like you 3 months ago. I too, have an almost 4 year old daughter, a 2 year old son, and a 3 month old daughter, along with an 11 year old son. You have such a beautiful family. I wish you well with the upcoming arrival. Hope I don’t sound like some kind of stalker….Best of luck to you.
