Truth Time

I guess it's time to come out with the truth. Here goes: I have been lame about not writing in my blog, because I don't feel blog literate. However, this entry is an effort to prove myself wrong & to begin the difficult process of learning a new "skill." My next task will be figuring out how to put pictures from my digital camera on the blog. Just be patient with me. I am trying.
So, as most of you know, hopefully, our family has moved to San Antonio, the Stone Oak area. I love it here. It's so beautiful! I do know that thinking San Antonio is beautiful is a controversial statement, but I do come from Dallas, so it's all relative. There are actually hills here, and the beautiful LDS temple that can be seen from my front door.
I have made some new friends that are so fun. Although I must say that I've left some friends that I dearly miss. I love running outside here. I had to get used to the hills, but I think what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
The kiddos are settling in nicely. Sterling begins Kindergarten on 8/25. He says he's ready, but I don't claim to be. Remi is on a waiting list for Mother's Day Out but will otherwise be hanging out with me. I am excited about the one-on-one time we'll be able to spend together. Johnathon is working hard at his new job, but I see great things for him around the corner. All of his hard work will pay off! His birthday is tomorrow- he'll be 36! Wow - time flies!
I do miss my family, but have made it back to Dallas a couple of times since May. They've made an effort to visit us as well. One thing I've learned is to use babysitters liberally. There are no strings attached , and the kiddos seem to enjoy playing with them.
Okay, I think that's enough for today. More to come, or Shari has promised to post a picture of me in a bathing suit - that's what prompted this entry - blackmail!
