can I even catch up?

     I'm unsure as to how long it has really been since I've blogged.  I know that I've thought about things to blog about but I suppose the fingers never really got to the keyboard to put the thoughts to record.  I'm fairly certain that I've missed so many opportunities to document major events in my life and that makes me sad...but it also makes me more motivated to try and keep up with the blogging this year.  We shall see what happens.

     Today I am home with Ellie, who has a stomach bug.  When we were in Palm Springs for a little winter vacation, my mom, Zoe, and I were sick... not sure how Ellie held out this long before getting sick but I guess there's no time like the present.
