It struck me......
At the end of her life, Erma Bombeck made a list of things if she were given a "do over" in this life.
According to Erma Bombeck, "If I had to live my life over......
I would have talked less and listened more.
I would have invited friends over even if the carpet was stained and the sofa faded.
I would have eaten popcorn in the "good" living room.
I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.
I would never have insisted that the windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been done.
I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.
I would have sat on the lawn with my children, and not worried about grass stains.
I would have cried and laughed less while watching t.v. and more while watching life.
I would have stayed in bed when I was sick, instead of thinking that the world would be on a holding pattern if I wasn't there.
I wouldn't have bought anything just because it was practical.
I would have cherished every day of my pregnancy, realizing that the wonderment in me, was the only chance in life, to assist God in a miracle.
There would have been more, "I love you's" and "I'm sorrys."
But really if given another shot at life I would seize every minute....look at it and really see it...live it...and never give it back."

Spring Break!!
It's been a busy spring break in the Kile household.
We'll start off with the prom dress shopping. It's hard for me not to picture her in her pigtails.
After many dresses and a lot of patience, the winner is.......
Of course, no girls' day would be complete without a little pampering...
Incredible Pizza brought us two new additions to the house...
