Why is this?

I just read this story on yahoo news. I wonder why it goes away after a year? Any thoughts?


HERE IT IS!

Time flies

Well, as you will see, I've been reminiscing about times past, looking at all the pictures we've accumulated on our computer. No wonder it's so slow! I never cease to be amazed at how time flies. Seth is almost a year old and it just seems like the other day he was born! Right now he's playing underneath the desk I'm working at, laughing and making sounds of joy at his accomplishments at getting there. :) Oh, the simpler things in life. I need to be as happy as him. John heard that people who are happier don't get sick as easily. The flu is going around here, and the kids and I were close to stepping into an infected house yesterday. When we got home, we were all trying to be unusually happy in hopes that it would help prevent us from getting ill. :) So far so good! No, really, I know that God is the ultimate One that keeps us healthy, but He can do that by means. :) Still haven't passed those stones, at least to my knowledge. Something to be happy for! Well, maybe. Somebody needs to invent something to help keep your hands from freezing while you type at the computer. My hands are freezing! Must go waarrrrrmmmm them. Enjoy the snow you guys!

Does he look the same now?

 

So small!

new hair cut

I cut Abigail's hair shorter than I intended, but it ended up cute.

Samuel's pile of junk

Samuel loves making piles of junk. He piled everything in the family room in one big pile and then jumped in it. :) Weird kid! Gotta love him! 

See the resemblence?

Still no pain

Well, I still haven't passed the stones. I've been drinking this mixture of olive oil and lemon juice throughout the day. So, we will see what happens. Abiail is sick. Now I'm just waiting until the other kids get it, and hope that I don't get it too. :) It has turned unusually cold here today. I think tonight we're supposed to dip into the low 30's with high winds. I'm so glad we have a house with better insulation and windows. It's late and I still have to make John's lunch. If I could only get to bed earlier!
