Welcome to the wild, discontinuous, and virtually unwatched ramblings of a mother of five.

It has been FOREVER.

I am here and still going. Things are so busy recently with all the clowns home everyday. We have been on a mission to keep things fun and busy, thus little time for the ringmaster on the computer. I have been sewing in what little free time I have and yet again, little time for the ringmaster to play on the computer.

Here are our updates.

Freckles... graduated from Kindergarten and will be going on to first grade this fall. Her teacher says that she is brilliant. I knew that, but it is always nice to have a teacher reinforce those thoughts. She has slowly been getting used to the water. We have a close family friend with a pool so she has been getting more and more 'carefree' in the pool. Not so scared.

Jane will be a Kindergartner this fall. She has just started to read and should be ahead of the game when she gets to school as well. She loves to be outside and if we could ever get it to stop raining here she would get her wish. Jane will have to be covered in bug spray because otherwise she will be picked up and carried to the giant mosquito layer and eaten. She is like candy to mosquitoes.

Buzzy... oh Buzzy. He is getting funnier by the day. Always so sweet. Under that sweet, funny exterior there is trouble a brewing. You can see the wheels-a-turning. Buzzy is completely day trained now. So potty training was a success. WOO HOO score one for the ringmaster. Now if we could just get him nap and night trained it would be a complete success.

Blinker is getting so big, so fast. She is starting to pull up on everything and is crawling everywhere and getting into everything. She has 4 teeth and a smile that will light up a room. She is so easy going and content to just play by herself.

So there is the update... and I hope to have some more for everyone as the summer goes on, but with vacation, VBS, holidays, and more birthdays this whole summer thing just goes by too fast. Too soon we will be back to school.
