So it starts

Many of my friends have been doing this so I thought I would give it a try not that I think people will really want to hear/read what I am thinking but who knows...

I have always mantained that I am not the writer in the group, I sing, I dance and sew... I don't act or write. I leave that up to the real talent and when surrounded by the group of people I am surrounded by let me tell you just saying that I sing and dance is minor in comparison. My group of extended family consists of probally some of the most talented people around, they are all performers, some are writers, dancers, singers, musicians, and most can improv with the best of them. And we all dress funny!! We volunteer to perform at Renissance and Dickens fairs here in the Bay Area. But I digress. So writing this will be a labor... but I think it will be something that I will learn to like or even love to do and maybe I will let the kids read this so that they will know what is going on... maybe not. I have always wanted to start writing about what they are doing or what they have said maybe this will be easier. I type much better than I write and it looks neater too!

I have three kids: they have several nicknames from differnt sources. The Eldest is a girl, Sunni, I used to call her Sunshine when she was little, it works for here. She will be driving soon, much to my delight and dismay all at the same time. The next child a boy, Froggy, only because he had a passion for frogs as a small child and still enjoys them now. He has reached the age where you just say well he is a teenager and a boy.... "what are you going to to?". Then last but not least is Miss Bee. She will three next month... so if you are counting I have a 15 year old, a 13 year old and an almost 3 year old... yes I am crazy!
