No, I Have Not Dropped Off the Face of the Planet

At the risk of sounding very repetitive: I've just been busy! And the pitiful number of posts over the last couple of months can attest to it. In fact, today and yesterday I've been kind of sick; I think I am just run down.

I wish I had something interesting to write, because lots of interesting things have been happening. But my mind can't form complete thoughts very well these days--at least not complete enough to make up a blog post. I'm running in too many directions with too many things that need immediate attention. But as a Costa Rican lady I know says, "Poco a poco." "Little by little." Little by little, we'll get our house done. Little by little, Noah will get better at counting. Little by little, I'll be able to get the kids and myself involved in some more activities.

We went to Boston for several days last week, and it was lovely. I'll post more on that later, but here is a picture to whet your appetite. :)
