LOng TiME, NO Post:) & we have a winner!

TRISH- you win! Will you please email me your addy?thanks everybody for playing! I am getting so close to getting my scrap studio {design} finished! & The cool thing is....you will get to see my ScrapStudio from start to finish in the next couple of months;)

This quote was posted on Ali's blog..it is by Anna Quindlen...and since I read it, I can't stop thinking about it.  Am I living in the moment or am I trying to be one step ahead? (or behind some days?)

"...but the biggest mistake I made is the one that most of us make while doing this. I did not live in the moment enough. This is particularly clear now that the moment is gone, captured only in photographs. There is one picture of the three on them sitting in the grass on a quilt in the shadow of the swing set on a summer day, ages 6, 4, and 1. And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in a hurry to get on to the next things: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less."

Have BLESSED MONTH! (cause that seems to be how often I post...no comments from the peanut gallery, ie. my sil:)

Hey....can I help it that I like to see what's going on in your lives on at least a WEEKLY basis???? I miss you guys terribly and can't wait to see you! I am so excited about the possibility of you coming here for my baby shower. That would make my day. Plus, Zoey misses her FAK.

Love you all!
SIL

BTW-I went to the P.O. today to mail the kiddies' presents. Be on the lookout for a large box. xoxo
