Thoughts on smart people

You know what, I am really thankful for dishwashers. I usually load and unload it everyday. I'm really glad I don't have to hand wash dishes. I would be washing all day long. I'm really thankful for the person who invented such a great thing.

Sometimes, I will be driving and think of how smart people really are. For example, some really smart person designed the TXU utility plant. How do the smart people know how to create energy and successfully transport it to our homes?

How do smart people know how to plan, design, and build bridges that allow millions to safely drive over them? How do they pour the concrete?

How do smart people know how to design and build airplanes? Skyscrapers? Computers? Artificial hearts?

I really need to get back to reading. When I read, I really feel my brain getting exercise. Research says that when you learn something new, you get a new wrinkle in your brain. Interesting.

Tony got me a book for Mother's Day. I read the first four pages twice. That's it.
I find myself reading silly magazines and baby care books before I go to bed. Nothing I have to commit to. I can do better.
So, I'm going to make it a goal of mine to read more.

I may not invent anything in my life. . .fine with me. I'm just truly thankful for those smart people out there. I gain so much from their intelligence.
As for myself, I commit to reading one book within the next two weeks. Let's see if I get any more wrinkles.

Exciting News!

Will is going to be a big brother!!!!!!!
We are so excited!!!!!!!!
I told Will he is going to be a big brother and he replied,"Where is my fire truck?"
So, looks like he is real excited too!!!! Hee hee.
Baby Chandler is due sometime in March. Gotta wait until my Aug. sono to determine the official due date!!!!

I'm so glad that I have some blogger friends. Thank you Leilanni, Ashley, and Rachel for taking the time leave a fun comment or two. I LOVE each of your blogs. I'm still learning how to manipulate this new e-world.

I just love summer. Summer. Summer. Summer. I even like the word.

I love the freedom summer brings. I think you can see it in people's faces. It's like we know there's watermelon, hot dogs, parades, and the sound of cicadas very near.

Plus, I love Will's little legs hanging out of shorts. I really love it when he runs around the house with his diaper on. He waddles like a duck and shouts out something for me to do. Usually involving retrieving some milk or wishing he had a lollipop. Great stuff!

All three of us went to Chili's tonight to share the fajitas. On the way there, I told Tony that God really knows what he is talking about when he says that children are a gift from him. He truly loves ALL His creation by blessing us with children.
