hmmm...well, um...that's life, right??

it is so funny that i set out writing this blog to keep a record of our life & all that we do, for both our family & friends, as well as for ourselves.

as you might imagine, being the mother to four little ones keeps life moving at a much faster pace that i might otherwise choose...and the boys are ALWAYS going as well. they don't realize how much we all accomplish throughout our days as well. why?? well, they have INSANE amounts of energy for one thing! :) but as we are a homeschooling family everything is integrated with everything else...we do have 'school days' but it is all different from the life of a public school/working family. we don't have set hours that we need to scurry around & get out the door, you know?? or set times that we are once again a family, at home...our days all meld together.

most days this is a blessing...

i love that i know already that the boys are all going to be amazing papas. they all help out with the younger simblings, aydin is especially taken with little ones (as i have mentioned before). orin is more of the disciplinarian, aydin more of the mothering type & ehren i think has a good mix of both.

but i digress...i have been slacking on my correspondence duties...and am sorry.

from this day forward i vow to be more addament about my posting...:)

but until then here are a few random shots of, well, life...cheers!
