Let's get this blog rolling!

So I am starting up the blog again! I am going to try to quit FB...Maybe...Probably not. But that is the goal. It is taking too much time away from what is important. I enjoy catching up with a lot of people that I never see anymore, but really if I were that interested, wouldn't I see them? So I am hoping that this will be a better use of my time. At least here, I am recording our family history. Well, telling stories about my crazy lilfe, but isn't that the same thing?
So my husband, who coincidentally is sitting across the room on his laptop. I have no idea what he is doing, nor he me. (Is that gramatically correct?)  Anyway, we have been sitting here in silence; each working on his/her laptop. A little scary, at least it would be if this were the norm.  It's not. We're usually talking, laughing, playing, joking (he thinks he has jokes) with each other and with the kids. We have two of those. They're pretty cute. Anyway, Brent is awesome. I can't downplay this at all, because he is. It's as simple as that! He loves me and he let's me know it. He respects me and he wants to make me happy. These things, and the fact that he is, simply put, a good man, make him an amazing husband. The fact that he is a great husband makes him a wonderful father. He is an excellent example for our girls. They will one day be looking for someone like him, whether they realize it or not and I am so thankful for the example he is providing them of what to look for in a spouse.
Katelyn is 3 and Sarah is 7 months. They are both cuties. Katelyn is a thinker and analyzer. You can just see the wheels turning in her head as she works out a problem. She thinks outside the box, definitely. She has some great sayings. I know one deay I will regret not writing them down. Maybe I can record some of them here. Sarah is a little spitfire and a second child to the core. She is feisty and grabby, but I'll be darned if that child does not smile in her sleep! She is the smilingest little thing! It is such a sweet, big, whole face smile too. I love seeing it. She is determined too. When she sees something she wants to proceeds with dogged determination until she has it. Both of these girls are sweethearts.
Enough for now. I am going to hug my husband.
