help a girl out.

ok - so i thought i could do this. a blog. it's simple. but as you can tell from my 9 month hiatus my blogging skills - not so much.

now i have to dig deep and find the motivation to keep this up to date at least once a week for the next 16 weeks... if i've lost you - i have to blog once a week about a children's book (which we love at our house!) in order to weazel my way a little closer to that cap and gown. so humor me - give me some feed back. my grade depends on it! and as emily love to remind me every chance she gets - my crazy perfectionist personality would not be okay with a "B"!

so - help me!

the family - fantastic. logan is already loving 2nd grade and jaxson is busting at the seams to start preschool. angie is taking on an extra "load" at work which i think she secretly loves and i am just plugging along with school and getting ready to start working from home. seriously - that's a good job right!

we just recently got a new car - which we love - and for the first time in the 4 years that we've been together sat down and mapped out a plan. we are both famous for having big crazy plans that we swear we are going to stick to - they typically don't last through the day - but this one is sticking.

we are on the five year plan. graduation for meg, debt paid off with the exception of student loans and house, logan's head fixed, graduate program for angie, relocation to teach in the morgantown area or some where south (um - this is not part of angie's plan but absolutely mine).... we'll see how we grow...

anyway, at some point this weekend i will post my first entry for children's lit. i'm sure it won't be profound but whatever gets me through the class. i suppose i shouldn't use jaxson's favorite book series - Walter the Farting Dog! :) funny every single time! definately my child!

looking forward to a nice, long, holiday weekend!

I am looking forward to your blogs the closer you get to Thanksgiving and Christmas as those are your favorite times of the year. I know that you love Childerns books so this class will be just fine.
