Wild One

Have you ever heard the song by Faith Hill, "Wild One"?

I'm afraid that song was written about Jacklyn. Try as we may, that child has a wild streak in her that opposes all godly influence. Blame it on being the youngest, blame it on being pretty and naturally charming--but the kid has got it--whatever "it" is...

"She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was 3 years old on her daddy's knee
He said you can be anything you want to be
She's a wild one
Runnin' free"

Right now, she's three years old on her daddy's knee, and she is hearing his constant reassurance that she can absolutely conquer the world...and she whole-heartedly believes it. This little girl is a heart-melter--and will be completely unstoppable.

So...the time has come

It is amazing that I have not blogged since January. Maybe I was too busy. Maybe I lost the inspiration to write. Maybe Facebook is just easier. But, I visited my neglected blog yesterday, and was stunned that the last time I wrote was January...January...that's a long time! So, I figure the time has come...

I, of course, first updated the look of my blog, as it was stuck in winter...

Then, I had to decide what to write about...because there are sooooo many things to share since January.

So here is what I decided to write---Ready???? I am happy. Very happy. Busy, stressed, and never quite content, but at the same time, happy. I love and enjoy my life, and the people in it.

I AM HAPPY.
