I know it's been awhile

I need to apologize for that. I've had some things happen lately that have taken up more time than I thought. Plus nothing new has really been happening. It's just the same old things every month. But it's still fun.

School is almost out for the summer here which means that I'll have both of my boys home during the day. Devin will be going on to third grade next year. It's amazing how much he's grown lately. He and Marcus both. I look at him sometimes and can't help but wonder, where has my baby gone? I realize he's still my baby, but he doesn't like to be called that. He told me that the other day. I had to explain to him that just because I called him baby, doesn't mean that I think of him as one, it's just that no matter how big he gets, he'll always be "my baby"! I think he understands it more now. When I call Marcus baby, he'll look me straight in the eyes and say "I'm not a baby!!" When this happened the other day, I heard Devin trying to explain it to him about why I say that. It was sooo cute to here my own words coming out of his mouth. At least I know he was paying attention to me when I explained it to him. Why do kids have to grow up so quick? It seems like only yesterday, I was bringing them home from the hospital. Time sure does fly!!!

I'm going to go for now. I just wanted to let you know that I'm still alive and kicking, just not as high as I used to.

God's blessings to you and your family.
