So it has been forever since I last blogged, and I really want to be more consistent with it!! For me, too often,Want and Follow- through are on two different sides of the world, practical strangers. If I could some how make them bosom buddies in my world of productivity, I would be... THE most incredible woman you've ever met!
Anyway, one of me besties (Monica Gresh...her last name is Rodriguez now cause she got married, like 5 years ago) just posted her top 10 highlights of 2010 which motivated me to also list 2010 happenings for which I am thankful. For now, just making a quasi-list will be my consolation for not being Mrs. Incredible.
I'm not putting them in any order because that would take too much time, and I would have to decide which event meant more to me and so forth, and I am waaaay too analytical about things like that, SO in order to save myself from such mind-chaos, I am going to just jot things that happened that meant a lot to me...I am also forgetful and already thinking to myself that I am going to leave something or someone out (I'm sure the 5 people that read my posts will be so offended), but here it goes anyway:
*Moving to Baltimore , Maryland
*Moving to Kansas City, Missouri
*Moving to Kent Island, Maryland and settling there :)
* Opening our Chick-fil-A on September 23rd... family and friends came to celebrate with us :)
*Paul turning one. Paul learning how to walk and saying a few things(especially, "I love you" and watching him dance when he hears music.
*Josh turning two. Josh singing his ABCs and other songs and recognizing letters, shapes, and numbers and watching Josh absolutely engrossed in building castles, buildings or towers (though the building does not change that much, he does call them different names) with Lego blocks.
*Welcoming my two nieces, Sophia and Hannah to the world this year (Congrats to Matt and Diana and Chad and Christina). Also welcoming Presley, Mia and Kate, our dear friends baby girls (Congrats to Christian and Ashley, Mark and Mallory and Matt and Brooke). Also, finding out another niece or nephew is on the way (Another Congrats to Matt and Diana) .
*Having family and friends together on Thanksgiving
*Getting a blue tooth (Robo mom is way more productive with free hands)
*Being with tried and true friends
*Making new memories with my best friend, Chris
*Learning more and more that His Grace is sufficient
*Visiting Great Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles in New York and Ohio
*Chris becoming a hunter
*reading good books, The Excellent Wife, Shepherding a Child's Heart , The Celebration of Discipline, Treasure Principle, currently, From Rebellion to Redemption and of course tons of Dr. Seuss :)
That'll do...Paul is up. gotta go
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
yours truly,
Mrs. Incredibly Inconsistent
