2007 Moments

By choosing "Moments" as my "one little word" for 2007, I truly made an effort to live in the moment each day. Loving all these little moments: Time to scrapbook--healthy cancer-free year--being a wife--Rob--turning 50--being a mom--Joel--Nick--Mitch--watching my grown sons being a dad--being a mother-in-law (I'm a work in progress)--Shelly--Kelly--getting to know Christy better--being a Grandma to a teenager--Marnie, she's fun--being a Grandma to a little boy, it brings back memories of my little boys--Bryce--being a Grandma to little girls--teaching crafts and the meaning of art to Morgan, "we're two peas in a pod!" she says--Nicole and I going to Princesses On Ice together, a first for both of us--waiting with my "honey girl" for the school bus to come--explaining what a sunset is to Bryce--swimming in the pool, and seeing Nicole swim like a little fish--watching Bryce overcome his fear and jump in all by himself--a safe race season--the gnome trail--relaxing by the lake--scissor sisters videos--reading stories aloud to grandchildren--listening to Morgan sound out words as she is learning to read--watching Marnie play basketball, softball, volleyball, and do her underwater sit-ups in the pool--elephant ears at the motorcycle races--watching Mitch soar over a jump on his motorcycle--laughing at Mitch's impersonations--group hugs--ice cream cones in the summer--our new road, it's paved!--high speed internet--Oprah & Friends XM radio--Ebay--riding around on the golf cart--counting frogs in the pond--George, the stick--Grandma Dear--painting rocks--flying a kite on the lake--the cottage--4 gals and a convertible!--laughing--heart to heart talks--riding on the Harley--Grandma's slow boat (the pontoon)--Sugarland concert--anniversary flowers--movies and popcorn--bloomin' onion at Outback--handmade birthday cards--celebrating in Vegas--my new white fluffy robe--first limo ride--turning back the clock--glitter glue--dinosaurs in the oatmeal--QVC--Mr. Mick--bowling--hula hoops--The Tree--waiting for Archivers to open--Ali's blog--CKU Detroit--Christmas blessings--So many little moments that I am grateful for this year, this is only part of them!
