pigs really do fly!
Do you ever read your own blog? Are you embarrassed to find that it's awkward and whiny? Or are you pleasantly pleased with your wit and personal awesomeness? If you came across your blog via blog-hopping, would you like what you see? Is it weird that I just spent about an hour re-reading my blog and inspired myself to start blogging again??? So, where to start? Let's pretend like it hasn't been three months. Like I'm not a stranger in my own little world I've created here; a place where my own mother still comes to visit... Yeah, that sounds good!
You know what else is good? Life. Life is good. It's hard, but oh so good. I've grown a lot and I'm happy nowadays :) It's refreshing. I still work for my dad, but Brad also has a job. Money is tight, but I've come to realize that it always will be. And that it can be a blessing, not a curse. I'm enjoying my kids, and my home. I'm enjoying my role in our family, finding joy in my talents, and discovering my calling in life. Right now I'm appreciative of the challenges we've faced. That I've faced. And as crazy as it may sound, I'm looking forward to the challenges we'll have. That I'll have. Because God loves me, and He knows me. And every now and then, when I catch a quick glimpse of the person He sees, I find peace and happiness and I like what I see.

welcome back.
Well now, won't this be FUN?! Looking forward to it, friend. Maybe I should go back and read my blog (worried that it might be boring) and maybe.possibly. get inspired to do it again (and want to/like it). Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeletewhat!? you talk like this was the first time you've ever re-read your blog! I do it all the time! Journal reading is something I've always done. I like to see my progress and the reminders of what else needs attention. I like the "oh yeah" moments and the "oh I remember that so well". but with pictures on the blog...goodness! that makes re-reading the journal 10 times better!
ReplyDeletei am definitely hopeful :) so so very glad you are back.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you back here, I've missed seeing posts from you!
