2 Years Later

Wow -- So I knew it had been quite awhile since I updated my family blog. But let's just be honest: We all knew I'm a "fly by the seat of your pants" kind of girl and there's no tying me down. 😂

So, because I recently changed horses in the middle of the stream (loving the idioms today), I've decided to revive my blog and put some solid effort into updating you all on the happenings at the Booker house.

The reason I'm doing this is because I once again have a stack of cards sitting in my house waiting to be mailed to friends and family around the US that I have not managed to get out yet again . . . And this time, I started in September!! 😥

So, in order to minimalize my tasks, knowing full well I am trying to do too much, I have decide to cut my card list out of my life. I only left about 25 people on the list who I know don't have/don't use their FB accounts and to the rest of you: I love you, I truly, truly do, but this is your card!

This truly is the mini version of where we are from 2 years ago!

Sunday Morning

Yesterday, Callie came into my room while I was finishing up getting ready for church by putting on my jewelry. Callie: Mommy, you're very pretty. Me: Callie, that's very sweet. Thank you! Callie: You're welcome. Daddy's pretty too! Me: Oh Callie, you need to go tell him that . . . :)

Meanwhile, back at the Farm . . .

We're having some exciting happenings around the Booker Farm so I thought I'd write a little bit about what's going on with the kiddos. Callie Callie is so excited that we now have two dogs and three cats. Their names are (dogs) Belle and Ariel, (cats) Duchess, Dixie, and Thomas O'Malley -- Tom for short. She is very excited to be wrapping up another school year and looking forward to our travels this summer. She is taking on more responsibility around the house (which I love) and doing an excellent job for the most part in taking care of all the animals. I'm certainly enjoying watching her grow and blossom in so many ways, but this is especially significant to me. Philip and I are really striving to raise our children to be responsible, caring, and kind adults! I'm now teaching her on Wednesday Night Bible Class and I love observing her for the first time in a classroom setting as her teacher as well. She is a delight to have in class, if I may s...

Sometimes it's hard . . .

I feel like I've finally awoken from a long, chaotic dream. The past couple of weeks have gone so much more smoothly. The first 3 (or so) months with a new baby just throws my world upside down and inside out. While I'm in it, I find it hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel --  that time when we all adapt to each other and find our new routine. I'm not saying I don't love it, because I do. I just don't love all of it! So I'll do a quick little catch up, write Nolan's birth story in another post and we'll be back on track. For a little bit at least. I think I've said before that I love writing. I mean love it. But for some reason, I've never been good at keeping a journal. I really want to. There are so many moments I want to make sure I write down and remember and I want to be good at keeping track of everything. But over and over again I prove it's just not something that I'm consistent with. It irritates me to the point th...
