Okay. So at least I gave a disclaimer in my first post...you all have to admit I fairly warned everyone that it was entirely possible that I would completely stink at this. Unfortunately, I was right. I have received emails, gotten phone calls and have been approached in person regarding my absolute lack of blog maintenance. I apologize...honestly...I do. I want to be good at this and yet the absolute chaos and ridiculousness of my life somehow prevents it. I actually had one friend tell me that I am the worst blogger ever (you know who you are!) and sadly, she is right. She said that I have these five wonderful boys and I should blog to not only remember myself the memories I will ultimately forget, but to let others know as well. My answer--I don't blog BECAUSE I have five wonderful boys! If any of you could spend just one day...oh the realizations that would come upon you! Here is an example:

"Why?" you may ask. "Why is there a football in the toilet?" Exactly my point. Why? Yet what most of you may not understand is that there is no point to asking why. You will never get a real answer. Your curiosity as to why a football is in the toilet will never be fulfilled. I found this one evening as everyone was sleeping and I went in to clean the boys' bathroom. When I lifted the lid, this is what I found. I felt that this would just give a little example to what I see and do all the time. My life is basically filled with random footballs in toilets, if I may, and I have learned to not question, but rather remove said footballs, sanitize them as fully as possible and move on.

Now, I do feel that I deserve some credit for getting three posts on this blog so far. Regardless of the fact that it has taken 9 months to complete said posts, the spirit is willing...you know the rest! I have received some criticism as to the fact that the last pictures posted were that of my deformed son, so here is a recent picture to assure you all that the malformity has resolved and he again looks normal...as normal as possible at least!
I have so much more to say, so much has happened that I would love to tell, but I fear the shock of my actually posting may be too much for most of you to handle as it is so I will leave a few tidbits for future posts. Sadly, now that I have sat down and done a little, I am almost inspired to sit and do the rest now...almost!
