It has been far too long since I last blogged, the urge to write is getting pretty strong.  I've been spending a lot of time helping my friend whose husband died and that has been good, but emotionally exhausting.  It's okay, though, it is a privilege to help her through this difficult time.

Illness has also visited.  We've had colds and quite possibly, mono.  My dear friend was so sick with it last week, I spent quite a bit of time helping her with the kids.  In the last couple of days, I started reading aloud to them and it made me realize how much I miss that aspect of homeschooling my kids.  I'm hoping we can make it a more routine thing, we all enjoyed it!

Spring has finally sprung here and with it the wonderful news that we're going to be grandparents!  Our daughter is expecting her first baby!  We are thrilled! 

Other than that, I've been reading a lot (love my NOOK!) and knitting a lot!  Lots of babies and weddings this summer, so much to do!
