I find myself caught in this crazy cycle regarding this blog. It just seems that all of my "pistons" are not firing at the same time. For example, I get ready to blog about some sort of happening in our lives and then: I don't have photos uploaded, I seem to run out of time/creativity,or most commonly, after a day of settling disputes and keep the children occupied - I am left unable to write in complete sentences. Then, after a long silence on the ole family blog...I am overwhelmed by the thought of catching up. So, I just continue to neglect the blog.
Lately, as I look at my sweet little men it's so evident that they are growing and changing at such an alarming rate...it makes my heart race if I dwell on it. These days are crazy, loud, chaotic, busy, overwhelming, dirty, messy, and completely wonderful. {sigh} The days go by so quickly, consumed with activity and cleaning up from said activities...that I forget to savor them. These are some of the sweetest days of my life and I need to have a record of them. My children and I will need to read about these days and remember how God provided, protected, and loved us.
So, with that being said...it's time to "fire up" the blog again!
