Life.

I know I was gone for 2 months.  And then I came back and went all LIFE BOMB on here.  And since then things have been slow…to put it mildly.

I am having a hard time finding my footing again here.  It is difficult to come back from an extended break, and to come back and have almost everything about life be totally different just adds to that.

And life really is boring these days.  At least any part of my life that I feel comfortable sharing with the masses.  With me on modified bedrest, and it being cold & flu season…Sophia and I just hang out a lot.  We read books, watch Netflix, play with puzzles.  It really is the same thing every day.  And with the chaos impacting so many parts of life, just hanging out is exactly what I want right now.

I am working hard to put together a plan for the future, and prepare myself for what is coming.  But so much of that is private in such a deep way that I can’t just open it up and pour it out here.  I feel that one day I will be more open to discussing things surrounding the transition to being a wife and mother, to that of just a mother.  But it’s raw, and personal.  And so for now, being silent about how it is going is the most fitting thing I could do.  It obviously isn’t possible to skirt around the subject completely, but I appreciate the respect most of you have extended to me about keeping it to myself…for now.

I have a series of posts that I started writing while I was on my blogging break, a fun little series about the cool things I’ve done or seen.  And I keep opening them up in my drafts and pondering if they fit.  Some I am taking out of the series, just because it would be totally awkward to talk about how we spent Cody’s R&R a few years ago…but I think that sharing these now would help me get my legs back.  Help me get back into this space, and filling this space with me.

I think I’ll kick that off in a couple of days…but for now I am going to hang out on the couch with my tot and enjoy some quality She-Ra.

You’ll find your footing. You’ll find that even the most mundane of days can be magical on paper…errr…computer. It’s hard to get back into the swing of things but don’t worry…we ar all still here.
Hope that you are doing well.

I’m so glad you’re back. And writing again. And encourage you wholeheartedly to take your time. Taking care of yourself and your kiddo(s) is the most important thing. Oh- and I’m excited about walking the March of Dimes too! Yeah!! :D

Just wanted to let you know that I am praying for you. I hate to know that you are experiencing this. If there is anything I can do ……..I am here.
