it has been a very long time since our little family of four
hung out in front of the tv together...until now.
the olympics got us watching tv together again.
most things on tv are not appropriate for our children to watch
(including the commercials at times)
and they have finally outgrown the disney channel.
dvr was created and now we view our shows when they aren't around.
that leaves very little time with the tv on.

four years ago....
we had just moved into our home.
cami was about to start kindergarten and cari was about to turn three.
we kept track of the usa medals on our chalkboard.
 |
| cari is always wanting to perform with the best |
cami will be starting 4th grade and cari 2nd grade.
we still keep track of the usa medals on our chalkboard,
but also on our iphones and ipod.
we still cheer them on together nightly just as we did 4 years before.
looking to the future...
the simple chalkboard will still be there unchanged
but i can hardly imagine my kids in junior high...
(a very super scary and saddening thought)
i sure hope we get to spend the next summer olympics together again.
