Full speed ahead...

Boy am I a slacker!  It has been way too long since my last post!  It has been crazy busy in the Bussell household.  A good busy but ready to slow down just a little bit and enjoy my sweet boys!  A lot has been going on!  Your normal school everyday...with no snow days in sight...bummer for all of us!  The boys all started karate right before Christmas with Mason and Jack adding tumbling into the mix!  They are loving it but keeps us moving and busy two nights a week.  We had a fun little run with the boys last weekend.  There was an adventure race in Nashville.  So, we loaded up and ran!  All of us...with the exception of Noah of course!  Grandma was nice enough to come watch him while we all ran!  I got to run with Mason which was so much fun and David and Jack ran together.  Dylan ran with a girl from their track club who was in his age group so everyone had a partner!  The weather had been perfect the week before and, of course, it turned off so cold the day we ran!  Oh well, had fun anyway!




Mason and me running!

We had a great time!  Enjoyed doing something fun with our boys!  Which brings me to another subject!  We get one chance on this earth.  One chance with our loved ones, one chance to do the things that matter, one chance to serve our Lord in the way he is meant to be served.  None of us know when that moment or second will be that we will no longer be here.  I am so guilty of not taking time...time for the kids, time to really do what matters, more time devoted to God!  Instead I worry about the house and whether it is clean, worry about work and what I haven't gotten done there.  If I died today what do I want my kids to remember?  I don't want them to remember mom was always fussing about messes, cleaning, etc...I want them to remember time spent with them!  I cannot wait for camping season!  Only a few weeks away and we will be hitting the lake building campfires, riding bikes, hiking, fishing...all of the things we hold dear and cannot wait to spend time with our boys doing.  Take time for what really matters...because we don't know how short our time is!
