My Momma

My mom has a blog.

She started it in 2008. Then she didn't post for months. Now, she has posted six times.

Post #1: How Mitch needs a haircut
Post #2: How she secretly likes the Wii (she also mentions a visit to Matt and I)
Post #3,4,5: How she replaced the pea gravel in her play area with grass.
Post #6: How she is turning into a cat lady.

Since she has started her blog she has had:

4 graduations: mine and Matt's from COLLEGE and Jeff and Annie's from high school (It may be Jeff's one and only, hehe)
3 children participate in two State swimming competitions. Both times her boys team's took the title. Last year Shane was the fastest sophomore in his event, and he took seventh. 
3 children move to foreign countries.
A trip to Mexico
2 trips to Texas to visit her family, once when her niece got married. 
Becoming a 'great' aunt.
Backpacking with the family in July (significant since it's been years since everyone in our family has gotten together for a trip since Shane and Jeff don't believe in coming to Mexico). 

All this, and the only thing someone can tell from reading her blog is that she has a backyard. And now she loves it. What the random? I just thought this was interesting... and I tease her about it all the time. 

Bottom line... if you want an update about the Williams family, you're better off checking the blog of the daughter that lives halfway around the world. Don't worry though Momma, my love for you isn't based on the content of your blog.

Ok, this is why I never wanted to do a blog in the first place, you talked me into it remember. And secondly (I am not sure if that is a word) You blog about my life (what is going on with the family) and you are the only one that reads my blog. I only blogged about the backyard so you could see it, you are on the other side of the world. And last I am not a crazy cat lady!
