I got this from Kelli at There is no place like home. The directions are to post the first sentence of your first blog post of each month.
~January~
Trying not to cry over spilled milk, or spilled urine as the case may be.
~February~
I have had some pretty interesting conversations with my kids recently.
~March~
I just got done watching Idol.
~April~
The most miserable month of the year is O-V-E-R!
~May~
Does anyone else feel like they are in a style rut?
~June~
There are basically two kinds of people in this world: those who insist
upon wearing shoes at all times, and those who kick off their shoes at
every opportunity.
~July~
Friday morning was our last day at the beach.
~August~
When I was pregnant with my first child, I was determined to “get it
right”.
~September~
I was visiting with a friend today, and she said, “So what drew you to this Weil book?”
~October~
35 years and 3 kids has not been kind to my midsection.
~November~
I think I finally know what I’m going to be when I grow up.
~December~
For unto us a child is born,
unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The
everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. — Isaiah 9:6
Happy New Year from our home to yours!
Oh, I love this. I liked Jan and June’s sentence…makes you want to read the rest.
I’m going to have to join in when I get a chance to put a post together.
thx
What a cool idea!
This is such a nice way to reflect on the past year.
I loved these pictures! You have such a beautiful family. Many, many blessings in the coming year, DCRMom!
This is a great idea. I thought I had just posted my last post of 2007 – maybe I should do another! Thanks for sharing the idea.
I really enjoyed this. This is my first time visiting you and I have laughed and thoroughly enjoyed myself….I will be back. Mine will be up later tonight hope you can stop by for coffee…..Happy New Years!
what a neat idea! I’m going to try and do this.
Blessings,
Karla
I loved this! What a great idea! I only started my blog in July, so I don’t have an entire year to post about. But, I’ll have to do this in 2008!
Okay, the first line in January intrigued me…that was funny.
A great glance over your year of blogging. Happy New Years!
I loved this so much, I made my own! Thanks for passing along this great idea!
I enjoyed this retrospective on your year. I might do this–seems time consuming, though! You have a really beautiful family.
I love all the photo’s!
What a fun one. I will have to do this for my NY’s post. Love it and Happy 2008!
i loved this. i think i’ll hafta do it! 🙂 your family is so stinkin’ photogenic!! 😀
I love the January photo – the girls coats are so beautiful, reminiscent of times past.
I love it! What a fun recap!
Hi. Glad you posted on Kelli’s House today. Otherwise I might never have found you. I’ve enjoyed it.

I just did mine…but wow, are your first sentences more interesting than mine!
I really enjoyed reading your first sentences, and one of the full posts. I think this was my first visit to your blog, but I don’t think it will be my last. Happy New Year!
Ah, that was cool!
Let me thank you here and now for your blog. 🙂 I love reading your funny/cute/adorable self 🙂
As I reviewed your year with you I couldn’t keep from clicking on the “pretty interesting conversations with my kids”. Curiosity, you know. I missed this one when originally posted. I can’t believe the questions concerning death from C! It caused me to recall a strikingly similar conversation, or series of conversations, I had with my daughter 30 years ago about dying and heaven! Really – no exaggeration. Same concerns. Two comments that I recall vividly were: “Should I pack my suitcase?” and “Will you go with me?” I knew we were in deep and only time would bring understanding to this precious child. She was so intense and so focused on such a serious subject. What amazes me most today, is how much like her Mom C really is! As Yogi said, “deja vu all over again”! C will be a wonderful woman someday: strong, sensitive and committed to her Lord and her family!
Wonderful pictures, thanks for sharing. I hope you have a great 2008.
Thank you so much for joining in the fun! I loved looking at all the pictures of your family! Happy New Year!
Kelli
