I tried to write, I really did....

I have spent the last several mintues sitting here writing. I keep starting a blog, then stopping. I think I have four new drafts, that I will eventually delete. There is so much to write about, and yet nothing seems to be coming out right. I think for now I will just post some cute pics of our summer so far and leave it at that. I can't believe we are halfway through the summer already. Not cool....it's gone by so fast I can't hardly believe it. I swear we are still sitting around waiting for our tenth baby to be born, and yet here she is almost a year old. It goes by so fast. Yesterday on our way to church I watched my older kids walk ahead of me. I am so still involved with my little kids, diapers, bottles and potty training, that it seems this time in my life will never end. But I know it will because after trying to push the stroller while Skyler pitched a fit next to it, I glanced up to see four of my older daughters walking up ahead. They are so tall, so grown up. Kenna will be twenty this year, Megan is fifteen, Abby is twelve and Lacie eleveen. I can hardly believe it as I write it. They were once so tiny, so little. I remember when Lacie was born and I thought how old Kenna was at the time. She was a whopping 9 years old. What did I know? Time has flown by, and continues to do so. My kids are growing up fast, and summer is half way done. Soon it will be cool enough for jackets in the mornings, as my kids scrounge around for backpacks, lunch money and homework. Soon I will have 8 of my 10 kids in school all day, and one of those 8 will be on her second year of college. Wow!
