Trial by Error




So, I've considered creating another blog....one that is public and doesn't really talk about my kids but more about all the projects I am "attempting" (sewing, baking, decorating). The problem is that I don't do the best job updating this blog...so should I do another? Maybe if I did that one, then this one would be more about our family, ministry, and personal random thoughts.

If I do another blog, the name I have thought of is "Trial by Error" because that's what life often feels like. So, what do you think of the name? I want a title that can incorporate whatever I end up talking about. I'm open to suggestions!

What have we been up to? School's back in session so the last few weeks have been a little crazy to say the least. I've transitioned back to the roll of the stay at home mom for the majority of the time, and it's been mostly good. I do miss being on campus and have had to check my heart and apologize (sometimes after I've become jealous or angry at Chris because HE gets to be on campus...can't you hear me whining *cringe*), but I realize I really love being with my kids. If I were on campus all the time and couldn't be with Rachel & Logan I'd be sad, so it goes to show that the grass is always greener on the other side.

I bought a book called "Five Aspects of Woman: a Biblical Theology of Femininity" that I'm excited to read & study. I'll let you know what I think of it. Hopefully it will help give me an eternal perspective as I think about my role as a woman, wife, mom, etc.

Logan (2 years 9 months) & Rachel (6 months) are a lot of fun to be around (for the most part, but I guess that's assumed). Rachel is rolling all over the place, saying dada, baba, smiling, screaming for joy, wanting more and more attention, and laughing (mostly at Logan). Logan is running, jumping, wrestling, pretending, and playing itty bitty sports at the YMCA. Itty Bitty sports is for 3-5 year olds, but they let him play and it's a lot of fun to watch. So far they have learned some soccer skills, and this week they'll have a scrimmage (it will be entertaining to say the least). Logan is a really great big brother most of the time, and I think these two are going to be great friends!

Okay, I'm sure I could write more, but this is a blog not a diary!

I definitely think we need to see more posts, whether on this blog or the new one. Kiddos, projects, food, random thoughts, whatever... we want more. FB just doesn't quite give us enough. Also, do update us about the book, it sounds really good. Rachel & Logan are growing so fast and are simply adorable. You are a wonderful mama!
