Some Encouraging Progress

Since I have last posted , so many things have happened, I don't know where to begin typing.

My family and I went to Phoenix, AZ in May. It was a business trip, so we didn't have a whole lot of time to have fun, but I have to say that after visiting Phoenix for the first time ever, I thought it was a beautiful place. The people there were very friendly, the freeways around the city were well laid out, and fairly quick and easy to navigate, and the Southwestern landscaping was so refreshingly beautiful - not at all what I expected. Yes, it was very hot (I can't imagine how hot it is there now, since it has been 100+ here in Idaho), but after the sun sets there in the evening, it is absolutely perfect.

Our son had his third birthday, and he is finally coming around to potty training. He has been exceptionally stubborn about it, and I have been so frustrated about the issue. I have tried everything, and nothing had worked. Finally, after months of trying every "helpful suggestion" I have gotten, I have resorted to rewarding him with candy - which I did not want to do, as I try to limit sugar to the kids. However, I have come to the "whatever works" point, and he is now making real good progress quickly - it's about time!

I have been working some on a Google pages website in which I will try to sell the jewelry that I make - but as with most things, we shall see. I will try to work on it for at least a few minutes a day, as that is usually all I have. As soon as it is up and running, I will post a link.
