I am not sure when, I just received a call that my Grandpa is in the hospital so I will be taking a road trip very soon. After that, I may really need a break.

I am considering a media fast myself. I really could use it. I might actually finish a few projects, lol. So tell me more about it. Is media simply computer, tv, radio or is there more included?

My 3 kids were born in the 70's and and we had no camcorders in those days. We have photos, but with film you don't take so many.It would be nice to have recorded their voices too. You know if I was doing it all again I would definitely home school my children. You sound like a great Mum. I really envy you having all those photos and movies of your children when they are small.

I have enjoyed every minute with them also, but it is also very sad! I understand how you feel…my two babies just turned three, and they are always telling me, “I not a baby, I a BOY”.
