I am sitting in the backyard watching the three oldest play on their playscape. I wish I could mentally/physically record these moments and revisit them when they are older. Not in the normal memory sense, but in being able to actually live the moments...all five senses. To hold onto these moments as if they were brand new everytime... seeing pictures and watching videos just doesn't capture enough.
Their giggles warm my soul. All three covered in dirt and mudd. Playing so well together. Either sliding down the slide, or pushing one another down the slope in the wagon. This is peace.
Conrad is asleep... enjoying his afternoon nap. Although he loves being outside in his jumper.
This our little family. Our adventures. Our treasures, and we are ever so proud!
(yes we do realize we are not really a small family... by numbers or size)
side note:
I realize I haven't blogged in a long time. Have had the intentions to, but just haven't made the time too. Or, in some way didn't really want to. Honesty time. Just because one can view the blog and have a sense of what is taking place in our life does not mean they are a part of our life. It makes me sad sometimes that with the more technology improves the more relationships decline. People can poke around your facebook and blogs, so why make a real effort to have that person in your life. Yes we are guilty of the same thing, and that is probably why we dislike it so much.
That being said... if you are one of those that just pokes around this and gets your Schroeder fill, you are more than welcome to continue... just wanted to give a dose of honesty...
