I keep looking at my blog and thinking I should update it. I don't really know what to say. I guess I will just type and see what happens. I am thinking I should write about the summer but honestly I can't think of anything worth noting aside from the fact that our good friends Smether moved to Chicago and we miss them dearly. Wyatt is growing like a weed. He is so smart and busy. He's talking up a storm. Everyday he says something new. His little voice is so sweet. He wants to be down and into everything and anything. We're working on discipline but are not sure what is appropriate and one look into those big brown eyes you fold.
Matt got a new job in April. His employer sent him to Pennsylvania for a sales training. His superiors were not sure if they should send him because he was so new to the industry (life insurance). During his week long training he was also judged and tested. Matt came home #1 in his class. He beat out colleagues who have been in the industry for years. If you know Matt this doesn't surprise you. I am so proud of him. He is such a hard worker and I know someday soon I will be able to be a stay at home mom because of it.
For me, this has been the weirdest year of my life. So many changes along with heart ache. I have watched many people I love suffer. I have felt insecurities that I thought I would never feel. I have felt betrayal, anger and confusion. I'm not sure what is meant to be learned from this. Maybe nothing. Maybe it's just others using their free agency. I am thankful for the health of my family. I love Matt and Wyatt with every fiber of my being. I am too exhausted to do anything else but am looking forward to see where the future takes us.

Woohoo! We got a mention! But Smether? Is that because we're smelly? We miss YOU guys dearly. Seriously let us know when you can skype. Let's do it this week. Wyatt is so adorable. What is he saying? Can you post a video? And discipline is hard at that age. Too bad I have the memory of a ninety year old or I would tell you what we were doing back then.
Yay Matt! Seth told me all about it and I was so freaking excited for him! And nope, I wasn't at all surprised. I hope it translates into opportunity and mulah. He certainly deserves it.
Your last paragraph made me want to talk to you in depth about it. It's because I'm so dang nosy. I think you guys are amazing and are some of the best people we know. Love and miss you!!
I'm sorry it's been a weird year for you but isn't weird the new normal? Kisses.
