But by the grace of God, I am what I am. Monday, March 26, 2012. I have been in extreme avoidance of this here blog. And now I remember why.

This blog is kind of my hiding place. apparently more hidden than I even remember.

They have a play area out front and train rides. Here is Mari and her class lining up to head inside for a story and to see how they make donuts and cider.

Tuesday, September 4, 2012. I am continually amazed at how different our two boys are, not just in size but in personality! Their size is one thing, Ethan always being very big for his age while Levi is a little below average. Ethan has always been very cautious, but very loud and outgoing.

Saturday, September 2, 2017. Billy and I have had a few days to reflect on how all of this has affected us, and we have decided that we have come out ahead. If you measure our experience in losses an gains, it is clearly evident. Everything else we own at our Spring home. We talked it over and thought it would show better full of our furniture and our things.
