How is it possible????

Porter has witnessed SNOW 3 times in his 4 short years...and every one has been in South Carolina!! It's crazy to think that it has snowed so many times "down south," but I really won't complain. I'm actually a fan of the white stuff...for a day, and then I'm ready for it all to melt away and clear off the roads. Maybe it's because it's never as pretty the second day. Or that it tends to create a lovely sheen of ice as it freezes to the roads. Or that the hospital never closes or has a 2-hour delay opening, so I have to go into work NO MATTER WHAT. But, I love the fact that my boys are able to witness this pretty amazing stuff. I just wonder if snowdays in South are going to become as normal as our 100-degree days. I think I will always choose the snowday!

A New Year

Wow. How is it possible that another year is almost behind us? This year has flown by, and has had many ups and downs. I've travelled to Nashville and New York City,watched 2 little boys continue to grow and thrive, had a best friend survive cancer, attempted to balance motherhood with a career, baked my first cheesecake (yes, I know, that's really not all that impressive), and been happier than I've ever been. What will the New Year bring? I have a few resolutions of my own, and I'm going to share them with all of you in hopes that it will keep me on the path to actually accomplishing all (some) of them:

1) attend church regularly
2) run the Cooper River Bridge Run in April
3) wear a bikini (with confidence!) at the beach this summer -- this is my truly shallow resolution...ya have to have at least ONE!
4) cook more exciting recipes...seriously, how many times can a family eat spaghetti, hamburgers, and tacos???
5) get my kids to eat new and exciting foods

Whoa! I think that about does it. I'll be keeping all of you abreast of these "changes." I know each and every one of you will be following me with bated breath, right??

Anyway, to each of you...

Happy New Year!

May 2011 bring much joy and happiness!!
