January

So, no pictures.  Just an update on us.  Life is busy again.  Christmas definitely went too fast and life is it's usual craziness.  I started the nursing program and wow am I in for it.  Love it but don't sleep much anymore.  I have to hand it to mom's who have gone back to school.  I haven't figured out the juggling thing very well, yet.  I think Bentley thinks Ellie is his new mom and I am more of a fly on the wall watching my kids grow up while my nose is stuck in a book.  Oh well, it could be stuck in worse places, right?  The kids have been busy themselves.  Scottie has been playing basketball, Josie working on a science project, and Ellie a president report.  Bentley stays busy building space ship things and finally riding his bike.  Scott is the husband of the year and does the dishes every day and cooks dinner every night and packs lunches besides working like crazy.  I'm trying to convince him he wants to do the laundry and pay the bills, too.  But that hasn't happened yet.  He is the reason our family is somewhat functioning at the time being.  Life is good, though, and we are all happy.  One month down and only 17 more to go.
