first post on new blog

Today's Monday and I am trying to get things on track for the week after a busy weekend. The computer room is such a mess- a big catch-all, so I'm going to spend some time tackling that. Everything gets thrown back here when we don't know what to do with it! Dunc is builiding additions onto the bedrooms one room at a time, so I am determined to put back much less in each room than we took out!
I find that I can think better when I compress the clutter and keep the house neat. The kids seem to be in better moods and learn better too. We didn't do much formal schooling today, just some reading and educational games, and a tea party which became a lesson in manners and self control! Well, we will hit the books tomorrow!

I just wrote what I thought to be a pretty good comment before my computer ate it, so here I go again this time not as good ... I as Duncan so love a good snow storm. I believe it is the closet I have ever felt to God, the snow drifts down so softly and in such stillness that it is breath taking to me and my soul, and yet it is as if someone turned on a light in the night. How can anyone experience a snow storm and not feel close to God? Your home is getting BIG and is beautiful! How excited you must be Mar and what a terrific hubby you have to give this to you. The children needless to say are getting so BIG, the boys are so handsome and my niece is a beauty! I am so lucky to be Auntie Ali to such a great crew!!! I am so appreciative to be able to come and share your life on your family blog, thank you so much Mar and Duncan. God Bless all of you until I sign in again ...
