I'm gonna do it this time!

I've tried blogging before. I failed.  Tried again. Failed again. This time I'm gonna do it! Why? Because of my mom and a friend from José's gymnastic class. Every time Jose does something, and he's ALWAYS doing something) I ask my mom, did I do that? Well, with four kids and the struggles she's been through, she doesn't really remember. She remembers things like when I cut the cats whiskers, pushed my sister off a roof, left her in a tree for 3 hours in the Oklahoma sun...THOSE things.  Well, Jenny was telling me about her blog and how it was a way for her to remember her life with all of her 6 (yes SIX) children. Each as funny and unique as the other.  So, after giving it much thought, I can do this.  As an English teacher I want to write deeply, and profoundly. As a mommy (and a "step" mommy) I only need to write the truth, because kids make life funnier and stranger than fiction.  So I can do this. I can do this for José and for my step-son Eric.
