where did 6 years go?

I found my old blog trying to sign up for google which I didn't even know I had an account. It's fun to read my first blog though I find them all pretty miserable and I surely hope they are never read. We now live in North Idaho again and loving it. If for no other reason, maybe this blog can become my new "journal" to the kids that I started when we first found out we were pregnant with our first but by the third, the journal got forgotten somewhere in the bed stand. Kathryn is 10, Luke, you are 7.5 and Rachel, my Rachel you are 4. Kathryn dearest, we started our first quilt this weekend after quilt group from the quilting bee came with 9 ladies in it. I picked you up a sewing desk at St. Vinny's "make an offer" deal today. You are growing up. You seem older lately. You were showing dad how to do something on his Fire and you seemed so grown up. your legs seem longer and grown upish. You seem to enjoy school. There is a boy in your class that you've noticed. I don't want to draw too much attention to it but you do light up at the thought. his name is consonant vowel consonant consonant vowel consonant with the two middle consonants matching like tanner or conner, etc. but you won't tell me what it is. You pick the bumps on your arms and your nails. I know you wish you didn't but it is a stress reliever. you giggle when your dad tickles you and gives you attention. You enjoy reading and currently are very in to duct tape projects. I love you. I love that we've been in to reading the bible together in the evenings when everyone else is down. We started this when you came home from the hospital from your asthma scare. We've about finished 1 and 2 Samuel. We sang the "Matthews Begats for Church on Christmas eve service. God is good. It went wonderfully. As for now, i should do my price comparisons before bed.
