Sentimental reading of my blog last night has inspired me. Inspired me to start blogging again. Not because my children are so great, or my writing so poetic or humorous, but because there is something completely cathartic about being able to laugh at yourself and your kids. Writing helps me take motherhood, an already dauntingly serious task, a little less seriously. And that is good. Especially for a perfectionist like me.
I’m not sure what prompted the long breaks in keeping up with my blog. Well, that’s lie. Working almost full time for a few months and bringing another life into the world are two good reasons I took breaks. Aside from that…laziness?
Well, lazy no more my friends! Or, should I say,”friend”? I don’t plan on going back to work or having another child anytime soon, so I am completely yours. Okay, that’s another lie. I have a husband and three children, and some friends and family who might feel differently. I better give them some time and attention too. But don’t you doubt it. Every… Tuesday night… from…like… 7pmmmmmm tooo 8pmmmmmm ??…or… maybe every other? from… like… 8pm-9pm??… I will be here. Writing stories. Stories that are true. Mostly. About the little lives I lead every day.
So, thanks for reading.
Glad you’re back – love hearing about what’s going on in your world 🙂
Yay, you’re back! YFG
