Treasure

I haven't posted on this blog forever, but wanted to start using this to capture the "funnisms" of my kids, knowing this time is fleating and will be gone soon. 
Here is Avery's latest comment this morning:
As we were looking at a trail map of Draper hikes, the cursor hovering over the map had a "+" sign on it.  Avery came over and as she looked from her angle at the side, her eyes got wide and she suddenly said, "Why does it have an "x" on it?  Does that mean there's a treasure?!!"  Loved it!  Who doesn't love the innocence and believing heart of a child? 
She also was my one who couldn't get enough of avocadoes.  One morning she excitedly saw one on the counter and brought it to me.  "Mom, what are these called again?"  "Avocadoes," I said.  "Oh yes, can I have an avocado for breakfast?" she asked energetically.  What a sweet girl.  My big Kindergartener this year!  I will miss these spontaneous moments as she's gone through the day.  Sigh.  How lucky we are as moms!  We need to also TREASURE these moments. :)

A post in 2013? What?!

Soooo, it has been WAY too long since I have even logged onto my own, depressing/discouraging blog....pretty sure it was 2010 the last time I was on this thing!  Then, I decided although I didn't keep up a blog on my family and kids much, and rarely even sign on to FB, and embarrassingly enough only pretend to have an InstaGram account because my girls set one up for me and even post photos for me, maybe I still COULD do a blog on being a positive force for good in life.  (Don't hold your breath!) 

If you do want to see if this will actually get done, you are welcome to check out a blog I started today called: See Good, Be Good.  (seegoodbegood.blogspot.com)

Maybe it will inspire me to actually post family photos and stuff on this blog as well!  Who knows?  In the meantime, I think I can actually keep up something consistently, but intermittently, on that one.  Here goes!
