The Obligatory Intro...

It's a new year (yes, I consider the beginning of the school year a new year) and I'm already a couple of days late. I've been wanting to start a blog to chronicle my oh-so-interesting life for awhile now. In fact, I have started one in the past, but, like most of my obsessions, they start off with a bang and then sizzle out. This time I will perservere and continue to write every (well, almost every) day.

To start: I am a 30 year old mother of two rambunctious boys. I've never been a frilly, pink sort of a person, so having boys has been a blast. Playing in the dirt, telling gross jokes, reptiles, contact sports...yep, I'm on top of that. I am hoping for a girl for our next one, but, at the same time, praying that Murphy's Law doesn't hit me with a girly girl. I wouldn't know what to do with her. Probably help the boys plan on how to put worms down her shirt. I'm not too big on putting my kids info on-line, so the boys are known as "Turtle" and "Frog." More on them later.

I've been married for over nine years now. J is a great husband...he cooks, he cleans, he does laundry. What else could I want? In all seriousness, he definitely completes me. I couldn't ask for a better one. We are opposites in almost everything, but we agree when it comes to values. And, most importantly, he is the best father ever.

So, right now, these are the two roles that define me the most. There is more to me, but right now I have to go clean the house (i.e. play on the computer.) I'm sure I'll have more to say later...
