Well, I guess it's about time I dusted off this here old blog! I can't believe my last post was on October 21st. Almost 4 months ago! Well, really, I can believe it. Life has been one big ride on the crazy train around here since then. I looked at that post from October 21st and took a deep breath and sighed as I remembered the simpler times. Since October 21st I have had some health issues and a pretty major church calling that have been taking up every spare minute of my time and then some. Not to mention all the holiday fun that was mixed in. But today I said ENOUGH! MY blog is important to me and to my family (they have been asking if I'm ever going to blog again) as a way of recording our family history. So I'm back. I think. We shall see....
So this morning, just a few minutes ago (it's before 11am so it's still considered morning, right?) my girls and I (2 of them are on a legal holiday from school, the other somehow cashed in on her sisters day off) were eating blueberry pancakes in the kitchen. Emily had her iPod playing and I was singing along. Then I realized what decade it was and what decade the song I was singing along to came out, and then I did the math in my head. Which, if you have ever seen me do math, you know what a big task that is, in my head or otherwise. And even though I've learned to doubt my math skills, I still knew something wasn't adding up.
Hello, Hello, Hal-low, Haaal-low
I asked Emily why she was listening to that. She asked me why I was singing along. I asked her if she even knew the name of the band. She did. Nirvana. What? And what really surprised me was when Aubrey started singing along with her own words to the song...Here we are now, in containers, avocados, in containers...
So we ate our delicious blueberry pancakes. After we finished eating, Emily started singing, "Carry on my wayward son, there'll be peace when you are done..."
What can I say? They get their diverse musical taste from me.
