Life's too short

It's been a long time. So much has happened over the past year. (Most of which will be shared later...probably much later.) Time goes too quickly and in light of what some friends of mine are going thru...the loss of one of their children last night, I am vowing to enjoy the time I have with my children more. We are away from each other all day thru daycare or work - our homes away from home. It seems everything is done in such a rush. Between doing errands, housework, cooking, caring for the family and work, do you really get to enjoy your family? Or are we just going throught the motions to get things done. I want to enjoy my children. I want to enjoy life.

North Dakota for spring break

I have been behind on blogging and am catching up today with so many posts. We have been sidetracked with our family and friends going through the flood in North Dakota. We visited them the week before it all hit Fargo and got to see a lot of snow then. (Second week of March) They received a couple more feet after we saw them, during the sandbagging and trying to hold the flood back. Many of our family and friends had to evacuate. We received good news today though, businesses in Valley City could open again!
