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.

I’m Drowning

In homework, that is. I am up to my ears in it. My poor blog has been neglected. We are having vacation Bible school this week at church, as well, so I have more going on than I have hours in the day to do them. If I can get past my next few assignments in my computer class and past the midterm in my algebra class…well, I might just have time to breathe again.

Don’t give up on my blog. I promise some interesting posts soon. If anyone would like three small children that may or may not be potty-trained and may or may not cry incessantly…well, I can hook you up.

Quick Chris update: He is in the field right now, so I haven’t really heard much from him since Monday. He’s doing good, though, minus a bad sunburn.

I appreciate everyone’s prayers. I’ll be back soon…I promise…with a good post.

Wish I were close by to help. The only baby crying I hear around here is one of the games my twins play on the computer! LOL! I told them they needed to turn the volume off - that was the nice thing about a computer baby. To which Darby replied, “Mom! I can’t turn it down. The baby just needs to be fed.” What type of games it that?!

Praying for you!

Nope, can’t help ya in the ‘taking the crying, non-potty trained kids’ department. I have my own four to contend with! I can’t even imagine having homework, along with no husband, on top of it all! Crazy…. Hang in there… and I always check your blog. Don’t worry. I won’t give up on it. =)

Thanks for the support, guys.

And…doesn’t anybody want my kids? I’ll mail them to you.

Disclaimer: I love my kids. They are precious. I don’t actually lock them in closets while I do homework. I promise. I also feed them and change them regularly.

I’ve been praying for you with your hubbie gone!

You ARE ARMY STRONG! Rock on! (Oops. I’m not supposed to say that last part.)

Really - I’m very proud of you.
