The end of an era
I have to admit that my neglect of my little blog isn't going to end.
I keep trying to record thoughts and memories here, but I have realized that my work (2 nights a week), my learning to cook homemade whole food, my 4 active kiddos, bible study, our extended family, and homeschool seem to keep me too busy to have commitments here.
My online blogging comes AFTER my in-real-life living.
Which means that a weekly commitment to my blog carnival: Tiny Talk Tuesday has to be let go. As much has that has been a household "name" here for so long, I can no longer commit to hosting it. My Monday nights are filled EVERY week. I work Monday nights and have done so for years, but now I regular commitments after work as well.
There have been too many Tuesdays that I wake up and realized I never "got to" Tiny Talk. And there have now been too many Tuesdays that I don't even have time to fix that.
So I hope to keep recording my Tiny Talk when I can, but I can't commit to it.
Maybe there is someone out there who would like to commit to hosting the Tiny Talk Tuesday carnival? If so, shoot me an email. If there happens to be more than one person interested, then I'll see how that works out.
But for now, I will not be hosting it anymore, only participating as I can.
Thanks for understanding.

Wordless Wednesday: School Year Portraits by Mom
Tuesday, January 17, 2012
Tiny Talk Tuesday helps parents focus on one of the many joys of parenting - the funny things that our little ones (and sometimes big ones) have to say.
Join in the fun and record the Tiny Talk overheard in your house! Publish a post on your blog and link us to the laughs. Then be sure to link to the blog carnival on this post so more bloggers can join in the fun.
The guidelines can be found here if you need them.

So, my nine year old was cracking me up this week...
K (age 9): Today feels like the longest week ever! _____________________________________________________
We were talking about compliments and how they make people feel good.
K added, "Decompliments make people feel bad."

Hosting Advent Dinner
Many years ago, my parents began the tradition of weekly dinners during the Advent Season.
This year, my parents were out of town, so Eric and I hosted the first dinner. It was Thanksgiving weekend and we invited my Grandmother and Uncle as well as some good friends over for dinner.
It was such a fun night! We really enjoyed hosting one of the dinners, and so did our children.
It was a great night and a fun way to begin the Advent Season in our home.
