I Am Back!

The last year or so I have been floundering. Holding it together...pretty well actually...but floundering all at the same time. Somewhere along the way I lost my mommy swagger. I lost my vision. I lost the feeling of what I am doing is the most important work.

This past week I was on two long six hour flights to Boston and home and had time to sit...think...process. I constantly have things floating in my head wanting to be typed out...mostly ramblings...things I find important or worthy of sharing...but then I second guess myself. I think...everyone wants to blog. Why should I?

So I jotted down why it is I want to blog. Why I feel that I am even worthy of putting forth what pops in my head, how I get through a day, what I have learned from our crisis, what I know about faith, about family, about friendship, about mothering, about special needs children, about broken hearts, about abundant blessings.

I came up with a pretty long list! I prayed about it. And here I am...ready to pour the murmurings of my heart out on a blank slate for you to read. I pray I inspire...I pray you think, if she can do it...so can I. I pray you can look at life a little more simply, a little less focused on us as individuals and more as a family. Whatever that is for you.

Currently my family is my husband and I raising two biological children, three adopted children and two foster children (one soon to be adopted). We have special needs, we have different colors of skin, we have hyper, we have mellow, we have old souls, we have those that constantly keep you on your toes, we have stories, we have broken hearts, we have healing, we have moments of tears and we have moments of ...how could life get any better?

So here it is...Purity in Pandemonium...for you...ENJOY.
