I'm a wife to my husband, Ted, of 18 years, and a mother to our four children: Sam (14), Abby (12), Ben (7) and Mary (almost 6). I've returned to work two years ago, after staying home full time with my kids for 7 years. I'm now working part time for a non-profit agency and thoroughly enjoying it! But life is crazy! I hope to share with you lessons learned, daily joys and frustrations, and reflections of faith.

I have bangs and not too many people have bangs. And I'm lucky to have a Dad that works for Charter.

Because sometimes he brings home some cool stuff and now we can do Charter On Demand.
Mom, can you please stop asking me questions because I really want to watch the movie.

Very cool idea! I love their answers - true to kid form - so honest! :) Let me know when you'd like some more blog info. It's been a crazy few weeks, and now still tryin' to get over this cold (I've had it two weeks now! Hopefully it's finally on it's way out) but I can send you a few ideas. I think I've figured out a way to send you HTML code without the e-mail displaying it... does that make sense? LOL Probably not. ;) Anyway, sorry to babble, have a great week!
