catch up

i know i know, my mom keeps me informed of the fact that i have not written for some time now...but honestly, scott has not given me much in the way of material since halloween, i mean really, how is he going to top his last moments of greatness...i know they will come, it is only a matter of time, time i am willing to wait for but apparently my mom is not.

ps, sophie is so cold here, but we wanted to show off her sweater from her auntie shantel.

time, it is a funny thing. and waiting is another funny thing...i am not good at waiting, paul zalinko can attest to that little known piece of information.

so last saturday i was dying to go for a walk. it was so beautiful out and it was a saturday...a family day in our house...a family day in my romantic vision of what a family should look like. so saturday, beautiful, sunny, time to go outside and walk. somebody needs some of scotts time, blah blah blah, i am waiting, and doing pretty good at it...but by the time we get to zalinkos to pick them up for our walk it was getting late and i was a little wired...to say the least. paul left me with a cd to listen to and the lyrics went something like this...wait upon the Lord, i will wait upon the Lord...hmmm. we get to our destination and before paul and rachel can even get out of their car, i am out of ours and setting up the stroller, i then proceeded to tell them to keep up and stay up, and off we went! so good...i calmed down after the first few minutes of our time outside. i promised max we would have hot dogs over a fire in the summer time, tried to calm sophie through treats, and talked with rachel about what life is looking like and how we are choosing to walk through it. we ended the evening with sushi for dinner...so good to play with friends...so good to have good friends.
