New Goal: Weekly Post

For some reason Gwen loves to put her hands in our mouths. Because she is our first and because I believe in letting her explore whatever she wants (as long as it doesn't harm her)... I get little fingers in my mouth almost daily now.... maybe too much info?



Turtles. We often walk along a nature trail across from our house. There is a pond there that is home to more than 25 turtles.



I hesitate to publicly acknowledge my new goal of posting weekly. I have little confidence that I will actually follow through and if I don't --- well, consider yourself forewarned.

Some people have a fear of heights or spiders or snakes...

I have a fear of writing.

It has plagued me for as long as I can remember. The only thing that got me through school was to bribe myself with chocolate chip cookies. With each assignment I'd sit down with a nice treat and write. I would procrastinate assignments until the very last minute. I mean very last minute... like printing the paper and running to class, last minute. Why? Because it was SO painful. I hated everything that came out on paper and I couldn't bear the thought of anyone reading it. It was only when the pain of getting a poor grade on the assignment was worse that I had enough courage sit and write.

No treats this time --- So-- we'll see how well I do blogging. =)
