the times they are a changin'


i have wanted to write many entries but have just been too busy. doing good stuff - like hangin out with my mom and aunts and uncle and little sister in florida. i wasnt sure what i was signing up for but i really enjoyed the craziness of my extended family whom i love :) and bonding time with my mom and especially my little sis. then i had a 3 day trip with a lot of time in san fran so that was fantastic. and ive just been hanging out with my new roommates. making covenants and talking about how life will be living together and serving each other. we first named the house the 'hive' because of our bees, but then changed it to 'the orchard' because we all have apple comps. so all is well in the commune - just loving it.
in the mean time i constantly wonder what i am missing out at the guida house. what if dominic is throwing up again? did he get his new tooth in? what funny things is vinny saying? dante is painting his room, emailing and having sleep overs. did i miss out on chicken tortilla soup? i sure hope not.
its an adjustment...because as fast as those little guys grow, i feel like i cant even blink (see country song..."dont blink"). and as for my sister and i we are the closest we have been and there is nothing like catching up and having coffee together or going on a walk with the kids. and mike works his butt off to make it all possible. making time to wrestle with the boys or cuddle with the wife.
i miss it.
but im so thankful to see a family love and grow and do life. and feel apart of it. there is nothing like it.
i love you guys and i mean LOVE...
thanks for having me.
