To Blog or not to Blog

I don't know how to blog and I feel embarrassed to be a blogger. I hate to sound like Andy Rooney but "blogging" seems obscene to me. Really, in our entire language we couldn't come up with a better term for keeping a personal web log than a blog? How about a webichle (web + chronicle)? or a wost (web + post)? OK, these aren't that great either but it seems like there must be something better out there than "BLOGGING". Even still, I have decided its time, as the scriptures say, "to keep a record of this people" and so I will blog! Despite the ickiness of the term, I hope you enjoy it!

Another Great Day!

I love Saturdays – who doesn’t really? I love that there’s no hurry to get up or be anywhere and it’s the only day I can get up and dilly-dally before getting stuff done. Yesterday was Saturday. Ryan and I were awake but just chitchatting before getting up. Pace had slept in but we heard him get up and come walking toward our room. When he came in, he stopped and announced, “GOOD MORNING, it’s another great day here on Earth!” As usual, his contagious enthusiasm caught us and we all felt like jumping out of bed to tackle the day! I hope he remembers this feeling when school starts again! :)
