When life ebbs and flows

I guess I haven't had much to say since last post six months ago. No, that's not really true. It's just difficult for me to maintain my children's webpage, facebook, and my blog. Also, though I have had many profound thoughts about politics, religion, schooling, gardening and life in general, being pregnant has changed my typical day greatly. As will the arrival of this baby. Truly if I have an analogy for my gardening and my life, most things have been significantly reduced if not totally arrested. I desire to garden, I fantasize about my garden plans, yet I do not get to participate much other than general maintenance.
I am thrilled for the arrival of our baby boy. I am not thrilled about getting the
H1N1 vaccine with Thimerisol, but I am praying over it. My gut is telling me the risk of a newborn contracting H1N1 is much greater than the risk of getting the vaccine and the number of Moms I know that are talking about not getting the vaccine are making it much more obvious to me we will need to.
That's my lastest, other than while I away I turned a year older, I planted many more new plants, re-arranged three garden beds with my husbands help, went on two family vacations, purchased a sewing machine and made nine dozen diaper inserts for g-dipes, made cloth wipes, been shopping for the baby and my darling daughters fall wardrobe, who also turned a year older and am now working on the stocking the freezer with meals to enjoy once we are home with a our newest family member. I sure I have left some things out, but overall it is good to recall just what I have been up to if I have been to busy to journal it.
