Naomi, this past summer |
Well. So can I dust off this old blog? Kind of strange to come across it after all this time. More strange that it's been less than a year since I've written here? Feels a lot longer - almost like a lifetime ago, which I realize is a bit of an overstatement. But wow, how much things can change in just a matter of months. Not anything dramatic or earth-shattering. But somehow the day-to-day rolls up into what is suddenly a big chunk of time. And the kids are all bigger and older and wiser. And where we all were last year looks different than where we are today. And I guess there actually have been some big changes. Trials that bring perspective and such an appreciation for the simple blessings in life. Goals that we have worked toward for such a long time finally, almost incredibly, being accomplished. Looking forward to good, exciting changes ahead. So, yes, though things appear mostly the same, so much changes.
And this little space, well, I'm glad to have had it. Sometimes I look back and cringe, but often I look back and am glad that I captured certain moments. Those moments need to be captured - for me and, someday, for the kids. So I think I need to get back to recording, somewhere - because I need it, and because I hate the thought that these precious days can go by without me grasping and holding on to at least some small piece. So maybe not here, but I'm hoping to settle in somewhere soon.
