I have become that blogger I hate. You know the one. The one who reels you in with witty and wise banter (I flatter myself), and then BAM! Nothing...
It isn't that I haven't thought about blogging lately. Actually, I have thought about it a lot - more specifically, why I haven't been blogging. Things have been super busy at home, with the end of schools and a trip up north and preparing for a crazy summer, but if I am honest, that isn't the sum total of why I haven't blogged much. I can't put my finger on it, exactly. Maybe I am so busy enjoying my newfound energy that I want to "do" instead of write. Maybe I feel like there is so much going on in our little world that I don't know where to start. Maybe I feel like I have nothing to say.
But if I am honest (and what is a blog for, if not honesty?), I am pretty sure I haven't blogged lately because I have needed some silence. I think that all the "blog vulnerability" caught up with me, and I just needed a breather. Mark and I have been making some decisions about our life and what we value and how to walk that out, and I think that process warranted privacy. I love when people comment on my blog (hint, hint!), but some things aren't to be spoken into. And when you are a recovering people pleaser like me, the less input, the better.
There are lots of things to update you all on - we are on a new, somewhat out of our comfort zone adventure this summer. I am also learning how to live life on a very specific diet, and that has led to some thought provoking moments. So I am back...hopefully.
I hope you (three) are back with me, too!
