Life is a whirlwind...or something rather like it!

I don't know where this week went.
Really...

If it gets any faster...what will I do?
It seems like I hold on to a very thin thread,
often.

And all is good, just hectic.
What happened to the good ole days,
when I hung out in my PJ's with my kids?

I hope summer comes soon.
I need a break!

The month of Lurve...

Wow.
February already?
Can I start my new year resolutions now?

As of today, I started coaching a boot camp style workout.
And started reading the Lightening Thief series.
Now if I could just tackle the pile of laundry...*sigh*

We have just been plain busy.  
Kids with school, piano, ballet and sewing lessons.
Sam with college papers, reports and the daily grind.
Moi, with voice lessons, yoga, bootcamp and pilates.
Not to mention my fabulous taxi service...(LOL)
(and maid service as well...*smirk*)

All in all.  We are happy.  Good.  And so far, healthy.
Hope it is the same for you!!!
XOXOXOXO

My crazy life...

I am grateful for it...although it is a little hectic.
Today the sun came out.  After the grey inversion grossness...
It was wonderful to behold.

Blue sky...sunshine and a beautiful winter day.
We are all doing well.
The kids are all doing great in school!
Both girls had ALL A's on their report cards...

As a treat, Ellie got her ears pierced.
She is one tough cookie.
She didn't even flinch!!!
And she looks so adorable...

Katie wants to go skiing.
*YAY*

Hope all is well for all of you...
{{{HUGS}}}
From the Henstra Clan to yours!!!
XOXOXO

We have been waiting for snow...
for weeks.  Since Christmas!

Today there are some flurries, but nothing
FABULOUS...

We are celebrating the MLK holiday by:
cleaning, being grateful for our home, playing
putting together puzzles, and Ry and I are gonna
paint a wall in his room!

Hope your day 'off ' has been a good one.
And take a moment to thank the Lord above for the land we live in.
Freedom is never free...

I am resolute...

It is understood that a new year brings resolutions.
So, what to do if one is already resolute?

Sure, there are things I would love to change.
To do differently.

However, my life is so good.
Why would I change it?

I have problems, heart aches and concerns.
Just like you.

I also have the Savior beside me.
To hold my hand, to lead me.
To save me.

What more could I ask for?
I am content.  I am in love.  I am loved.
