Top 5 List

I feel absolutely uninspired about what to write about, but the longer I put it off, the more I feel like I need to say something grand. So, just to get back into the world of blogging, a list:

1. Sometimes getting away is worthwhile just for the welcome home.

2. After washing all the glass globes from the ceiling fans, I'm appreciating my mother's sage advice: "you don't have to dust recessed lighting".

3. Kids would rather do schoolwork than clean.

4. I'm about 95% sure Sam is going to be an engineer. While shopping the other day, he asked me if the conveyor belt carrying our groceries was a big circle. He then proceeded to tell me that there were wheels in there that turned and made it go around. I asked him who told him that and he said, "Just myself. I just can look at things and know how they work."

5. Even if you have 6 kids, you'll still miss the one that's gone.

Hope to be more regular in my blogging now that we're getting back to a more structured school schedule.
