The Flake Family

A good friend told me a little while ago that I need to take more pictures of my kids. I had to laugh and tell her that I do take pictures....she just doesn't see them. This has made me think: just because I didn't blog it doesn't mean it didn't happen. I think some of us might get stuck with the mentality that we have to blog EVERYTHING in some effort to preserve our lives and our families life. Often this very act of preservation is taking away valuable time from the very thing we are trying to preserve.


But, today, I am bloggging. (gasp) I haven't felt like doing this....(sitting at the computer and typing about my lif)e in a long time. We haven't had a computer and we haven't had internet and it's amazing how you can survive and thrive without the two! I have realized how much time I wasted looking at this screen...looking up facts that really didn't improve my life. (There's so much information on the internet!) and looking at blogs...(peoples lives written mostly from an idealistic point of view). I love you all but really....my life has been richly blessed by not peeking in on peoples blogs every day! In fact....now that I am sitting here typing this, I am not really sure if I want to blog anymore or not. I have realized that the people whose influence greatly enrich my life have kept in touch with me and I have been just that...greatly enriched by them these past months.

Anyhow!

Our kids are growing and changing......(sometimes with the help of scotch tape...try it! You are sure to laugh!)

 

Connor has 4 teeth with 2 that have been trying to come in for a few weeks. He is as adorale as ever, if not more!

Weston is hitting that stage where you can tell he is trying to develop his critical thinking skills. He comes up with some humorous observations and definately provides us with plenty of comedy relief!

 
Anyhow....I just thought I'd post a couple thoughts and pictures! :)
