This morning I stumbled upon this ol' blog. Wow, how life has changed since I last posted! Back then we were a family three. We had just had a miscarriage and weren't sure we would have more babes. I think that maybe my sadness and grief just kept me away from wanting to write about family life. I remember Jeff and I being surprised by the intensity of our grief. It rattled me. I stopped blogging and now that I consider it, it may be no coincidence that I also dropped out of the moms group I was in.
I'm glad that season of grief is over. And now I think it's time to resurrect this blog. I crafted this title "Resurrection" weeks ago when I first drafted this post. I didn't mean for the issuing of this to fall on Easter weekend, but I think it's cool that it has.
I've thought a lot about what to write about. We have definitely bounced back from where we were a few years ago. We now have three blessings in total: Izzy (age 4), Addie (age 2) and Jonah (age 7 months). Life.is.busy. I'm not sure "busy" is actually a word that is up to the challenge of describing what it is like to have three kids under age five. Crazy. Chaotic. Joyful. Comical. Exhausting. Deepening.
I have grown incredibly since becoming a mom. It has brought me to my knees. That's a phrase I have a new understanding of because I truly could not get through this without God's good help and merciful grace!
I hope I can share some of this adventure and, in doing so, bless someone out there in the blogopshere. Is that a real word? More to come soon.
