I thought we trained up kids "in the way they should go", and they would never question. Now I'm learning that they train us in they way they want us to go and if we value our sanity we will step out of their way. : )
My children continue to "outshine" me. They are funnier, happier, more generous, skinnier, complain less, have more friends and are better at their jobs. They even have ADORABLE kids! How can a Mom keep up with such goodness? Part of me wants to be a full-time Mom again. Another part of me says I need to get a life. When I signed up to be a mother I didn't know I was also signing up to be a Mom of grown children. Now my joy comes from watching them live good and fruitful lives. They are teaching me.

7 Children and 36 years
This is my maiden voyage into blogdom - our youngest daughter gets credit for getting me set up this far.
I used to think that I could only write with paper and pen (black ink only). But modern life dictates using a faster means than scribbling and a postage stamp. If I am going to keep in touch with my family and the growing # of grand-"babies" then I need to board the tech train.
Stay tune but DO NOT hold your breath!
