Okay, time to write. Time to put this blog to good use. I know it is a digital scrapbook of my family that you all indulge me on but I want to share more. When I do write something, share it, and get feedback, that is the best feeling. I love hearing that anything I've said resonated or made someone laugh. I realize that my life with my five guys is a story worth being told. My story, apart from these crazy kids, is also worthy. That is the one that scares me. Being vulnerable about Aubrey, aside from wife and mother.
So, I have been diligent to journal for over a year on what it is I want to write about. And now the doing is here. Time to get off the runway and take flight. As fate would have it, I think I broke my toe last week. All of a sudden there is ample time to sit and write.
It feels like a rebirth to me, this new season. I have friends raising foster kids, some are amazing teachers, others are pregnant, and I am left with myself during the day wondering what is next. Feeling small but I am asking God to show me. Show me how the now and the next collide. Thank you for hanging with me, those of you who read, and comment, and cheer me on. If you are just here to see cute pics of my boys, that's okay as well.
Hip Hip Hooray! (I'm always in your cheering section!)
ReplyDeleteYou have been! Thanks, Friend.
DeleteExciting times my friend! Can't wait to see what happens :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading!
DeleteBest. Post. Ever. So much anticipation over here! I LOVE when you write!!! Might I suggest you grab a delicious cup of joe, light a pumpkin smelling candle and turn on some tunes first? Whatever you do, enjoy it. I agree that the process of spilling it into words is indeed cleansing.
ReplyDeleteGreat plan!! I am following your instructions exactly :)
DeleteP.S. Sorry about the toe. Perhaps God just need to slow you down a notch. ;)
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I am always in a hurry :/
