Good Quote

Speaking of New Year's resolutions...one thing I want to do more this year is write.  Before I used the blog as a reference for the scrapbook, but of late, I have kept it up to date.  Well, until this fall.  I also used the blog as a way to update family far away.  Now we are all on facebook.  Yes, yet another blog-dropout because of fb. Then there was the whole "everyone will think I'm a dork if I write what is really on my heart."  Guess what?  The 10's of people...OK 10 people...who read this love me and know I'm a nerd.  :)  So here's to the new year and we'll see what happens!

Cleaning out the kids' backpacks is like opening a time capsule!  SweetDoll had art work from Vetran's Day!  And a donut that had been there since at least before Christmas.  Yuck!  Then there are also some treasures.  SweetBoy's teacher gives them a quote to memorize each week.  She always picks really good ones.  This one caught my attention.
"Success is not final;
failure is not fatal;
it is the courage to continue that counts."
~ Winston Churchill
