I have not written anything here in a long time. Not since I got pregnant and tired. I decided I needed to spend nap time, well, napping...so that's what I did. I have struggled with whether or not I should continue writing. I want to. I have lots to say...lots to remember and record. I have a bad memory, so I like the idea of a lasting record of those melt-your-heart moments. On the other hand, I want to be fully present for those moments. For me, that requires being rested. And I require a lot of rest. I also want to make sure that I'm present for those moments and enjoying them, not just taking pictures so that I can post them later. I don't want to live my own life vicariously.
So, I think I'll continue as I can, when I can. This blog is really just for me. A place to ponder, reflect, process, improve. A place to challenge myself to get better and to look for encouragement when I stink. I want to be honest and let other moms know that they aren't alone in their fears and failures.
Motherhood is tough. And a little lonely. Writing, letting other people into my world, makes me feel like I'm not alone, too.
