Still trying.....

Well, several months ago I was inspired to start a blog because I enjoy reading a few blogs so much that I became envious of the fact that they are recording their lives.

Then, after the first post, I never came back. That feels like so many things in my life these days. With four kids I feel like I am always doing something off my never-ending list and so many things are put off or forgotten. But I caught a glimpse of a photo the other day of Jack when he was Katie's age and I was struck by how much I had forgotten about what he was like at that age.

I pride myself on loving the age that they are at. Enjoying them for who they are now...not the babies they were, or the person they will become. But all the same, I am afraid for the day when they are no longer living with me and I can't remember why I was so busy, what I was doing, or how they sounded at each age. I have thousands of photos of them....but no real record of our day to day lives, the things we do, things we say, fun and tears that we experience.

So, I'm back. And hopefully as soon as I figure out how to post photos I can begin to record my life as a stay at home (but mostly in the car) mom of four kids who loves her life as much as I could have ever hoped to.
