Craziness

So life has been whirling by - is that a word? I think that's the way of the Spring & Summer. There's so much going on in Spring - you want to get out, enjoy the weather, the kids are getting ready for the end of the school, summer plans are in the works. And then of course, Summer itself hits and before you know it it's almost Labor Day again. Whew! As the oh-so-wise Dr. Seuss once said "How did it get so late so soon? It's night before it's afternoon. December is here before it's June. My goodness how the time has flewn." Which makes me think of a little sidebar here (this is how my mind has been of late) children's authors are just the best for stating the obvious and insightful.

Anyway, back to my point, although I'm not sure I really had one, just a guilt for not keeping up with original blogging intentions. We are well into our summer even though we've just past July 4th. Andee has returned from her first field hockey camp of the season. Tara (and Adam) are both looking for new (but used) cars in preparation for college in the fall, Brittany is busily working on her summer courses, and Andy & I are getting ready for our vacation to Pennsylvania in a couple of weeks. Which reminds me I have to figure out an Anniversary gift. Cotton or China. Gee- towels or place settings. There HAS to be something better!!!

Although when I think about it I can't put my finger on what exactly has made me feel so completely busy, but yet I seem to have. Hopefully I at least have a lot accomplished to show for it. Still I'm resolving myself to be better about documenting all these days as they so quickly pass us by. I should be taking more photos, writing more down, following my own proclamation of remembering the little things. Otherwise, I will continue to forget.

And on a final note, a nice photo of Andee, Tara, and I taken after Tara's graduation on June 18th. (YEA!!!! SHE DID IT!!!) Usually when I take a photo with the girls I always love the way they look and hate the way I look. I'm definitely a behind the lens kind of gal. But this one came out really nice. And goes to show how far we've come in only a year. Life is good.
