Great place to visit

This is a new blog that portrays an excellent perspective from a girl transitioning from high school to college.  She has a beautiful way of expressing the struggles she had in high school.  Also, the struggles of striving to live in the world and not of the world.  Check it out.    http://gracetruthlife.blogspot.com

Still snowed in...

Today is the day after Christmas and the third day of being house bound due to a blizzard in the midwest.  We have watched more than 25 movies, baked cookies (as shown in the picture), eaten, napped, did laundry, napped, eaten, eaten, eaten. 

In between all this, in my attempt to get started on my daughter's scrap book, I starting going through pictures. Trying to decide what all to include.  Of course there are B.C. photos and A.D. photos. (Before computer and after digital photos).  I didn't get very far. It is a process, I know.

Daughter's high school scrapbook. One and a half yrs. and counting.

Two and a half years ago, my daughter was a freshman in high school. It was then that I decided to start making her own scrap book.  Well, she just finished her first semester of her junior year in high school and I have not one page done. 

I guess it is such an overwhelming task for me to think about.  Where do I begin? What all do I include? How many tears will I shed?

Now, I am thinking about all the other tasks that may be involved in preparing for her graduation, preparation for college, preparation for her leaving the nest.  I guess this is as good a time as any to start.  I still have time and if I blog about it, maybe it will help me stay on track.

Wish me luck....
