Seems there has been quite the blogging lull these past few months. I'm not really sure why but it almost seems as if blogging is a thing of the past. I blame Facebook. Ha ha.
It's not that there is nothing happening in our life or that it's unworthy of blogging about. After all, the sole purpose in my own personal blogging is to document our life while the children are at home. I don't scrapbook or even very often print photos, so it has always been a way for me to commit their childhoods to memory.
I think it's just that we are so busy living. It seems there is so much to do and teach and see. Blogging seems like a silly waste of time so often. But then again, its so wonderful for so many reasons. Looking back over the years has been so fun and a little bittersweet. It makes me want to document every second of my children's' lives. But then when would I live it?
So much has happened since my last blog post: a trip to Arizona, our 11th anniversary, a niece's wedding, visits from out of town friends, Rhett's 2nd birthday, Avril's 5th birthday, another 4th of July, the death of a beloved pet, and on and on. I do have pictures of a lot of these events and some things will never be forgotten even without photos. But for some reason I've lost the drive to put them up on the blog. But I want to change that. I want something for my kids to look back on and laugh & giggle and remember. I want them to scoff at the ridiculous clothing and hairstyles. I want them to gleefully exclaim the memory of a cherished toy long gone. I want them to divulge pertinent information about events that was unbeknownst to me at the time.
I guess this is just a plea and a commitment of sorts to blogging. I don' want to stop.
