so, blogging is work...


life is always busy, isn't it? The time just flies by and all of a sudden I look at the calendar and it is July 18, 2007! What the?

So, new for me - a job!! Woohoo! Working from home! (Bigger woohoo) but not enough hours - I'm glad its slow right now with summer vacation and the kids being home all the time, but I hope it picks up soon.

My 12 year old, Nicolas has Down Syndrome. He's in the midst of all his summer camps right now. He had a lose the training wheels camp in June (see the cool story here: http://www.storybridge.tv/chronicles/011) and just returned from the Wisconsin Lions Camp.
I'm so grateful for places like these that let my little guy feel just like everyone else.
We went to the Dells in June with my good friend Michele and her daughter - and of course I burned to a crisp! We hit the Faith Hill/Tim McGraw concert in Chicago on the 13th and it was such a blast to go to a concert with my kids. Man, I wish my parents had been that cool!
Today we got a new member of our family - Rhianna was born at 2:52 pm to my niece Alyssa... amazing to me, since I remember the day Alyssa was born 20 years ago.
Man, time flies! Love your people - hug them lots and enjoy the ride!!
