This is the first post!

This is the first ever post of The Normal Nolens! Nothing much to exciting to report here, but I will tell you about our week. My nieces, B & A, are spending the week with us to attend Sports Camp at our church. They have been a huge help, and I might consider keeping them longer! They read to Honey Bunny and Butterball, and everyone plays together happily. That means that I can play on the computer reading other blogs or read my own book by myself. I have even been to the bathroom by myself this week! When we went to the pool today, I was able to talk to some friends who showed up without Butterball clinging to me as if he was going to get sucked away. And when the pool had to be vacated of over 100 children plus their parents, A & B each took one of the kids and I helped direct traffic. We are home now and ready for our long, afternoon nap. So don't call me!

I must give some thanks to Dinky in this post, too. How many Dads do you know that will go to the park with 4 kids (2 of his own and 2 nieces) at noon when it is around 90 degrees and get all sweaty then go back to work? That is what Dinky did yesterday when I had a doctor's appointment at noon. He had a picnic with them and then played and raced around the playground with the kids. It is great to know that I can depend on him when needed, and that he won't complain about it--well, not too much anyway! He's great! I don't know if his office thougtht that it was so great, but I appreciated him!

I will try to post here often and let you all know what is going on in our house. Don't expect any pictures yet though. I haven't figured out where the cord goes for the digital camera, the scanner, or the phone with pictures, so until Dinky gets time to show me, you will have to use your imaginations!
