Wow.....it's been like 3 months since my last post

Wow. I guess that I have been pretty busy. It's been 3 months since I've written anything on my blog. And to be honest....I don't really have much to say. So maybe I'll just tell you a few things that I have learned in the last few months. These things come from various places and people, school and work, kids and friends. They are random and are listed in the order that they come into my head. So here goes:

1. Don't complain about something if you aren't willing to roll your sleeves up and help work on a solution.

2. If you aren't willing to try something, you will never know how great it could be.

3. Don't just show up to show up.

4. Take a seat at the table. Nobody listens to you if you aren't sitting at the table.

5. Sometimes you have to let others do things so that they can discover that they can do it.

6. Kids are listening. No matter what you think, they hear you.

7. And they are like sponges. The really good kind. They soak up everything.

8. Sometimes you have to be like that sponge and just soak it all in.

9. It's okay for you to let others know that you know you are awesome. Just don't rub it in.

10. Life passes by so quickly. Kids grow up, friends grow apart, and things will keep moving whether you want them to or not. It's a crazy ride, so hold on tight.

There. Blog post complete. Hopefully next time I will have more to say.
