Tim and I are very different in many ways and it seems like those differences have really magnified as we are raising our boys. The biggest issue here is me. I seem to change my mind often and to the extreme as a naturalist. Oh well, I guess he knew what he was getting into when he married me! Here are some conversations we have had recently...Me: I've been reading some stuff on having children and have decided that I don't ever want to use birth control again.
Tim: Stop reading.
Me: I really like these cloth diapers. I think I will use them for all the kids we have.
Tim: Seriously?
Me: I think we should have a garden and grow our own vegetables this fall.
Tim: Do I have to help? Will it save money?
Me: Natural childbirth was way better than using medicine. I think I want to have all our children naturally from now on...maybe at home.
Tim: No
Me: I've gone green on all our household products. Have you noticed?
Tim: Was I suppose to notice?
Me: What do you think about homeschool?
Tim: uhhhh, isn't that two years away?
It does take a balance of powers to keep a family moving in the best direction! I guess we will see how natural the Winter family will be...

Love all the post... man we have got to catch up and talk about someof these things you wrote about..... I am currently reading Supernatural childbirth... you would love it...
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the pics and so glad you are doing well and looking great btw.
love all the posts! and by the way, justin actually did potty like a doggy to get over the hump of not doing it in the potty vs. his underwear. it actually worked like a charm! just a mess to clean up in the backyard....
ReplyDeleteJust in case you and Tim are having one of those conversations and think, "Hmmm... I wonder what Wes would think about this."
ReplyDeleteI'm with Tim.
Love these pictures! And these conversations make me laugh. I can totally see you and Tim having these talks in my head. So funny! Isn't it amazing the way God allows people with totally different opinions to stay married? He is the glue, for sure! And just think how much awesome blog material you have with these differences of opinion, too. :-) Love you both!!
