As most of you know, my sister and her husband recently deployed to Afghanistan for a year leaving their two children in the care of family back home. Of course, that includes me!
My sister, Angie, recently started a blog about her times across the globe to keep us all updated. I thought, "Hey, the kids need a blog, too!" Now of course since they are only 4 and 1, they are a little too young to blog themselves... unless we got them one of the puppy twitter collars... but that may cause more problems than it helps. Can you imagine their parents' faces when they see stuff like "Ella just wagged her tail" or "Luke just scratched his back" or "Ella is barking non-stop"... Actually, now that I think about it - that may actually work! ;)
Ok - back to the task at hand. Starting a blog about the kids. Now, I'm calling this blog Adventures In Aunt Hood because that is really what it is likely going to be. Ella and Luke will likely try to teach me the ropes - and I will likely be hanging on for dear life. So let the adventures begin... sorta.
So, the kids aren't officially with us right now - actually they are visiting with Scott's family in Mississippi and Alabama. It's nice that they will get to spend time with so many people while their parents are gone. Since they will be spending time with other family members - you will probably see posts from their fun times over there. (Paula, Ellen, Laura, and Liz - that means I'm gonna need some input from y'all!)
The kids will be back the end of next week for the Raborn/Jones family reunion. I can't wait to see their little faces and get hugs from little arms and tiny fingers! :)
