Wow- an 8 month update!

I guess this happens to lots of bloggers- we have great intentions of posting here all the things that are going on in our lives, what we are learning, and what God is doing... and then we get so wrapped up in what is going on in our lives and what we are learning and what God is doing that we forget or don't have the time to put it into a blog! Makes me think about the difference between my sister and I when it comes to cameras: she has an interest in photography and is really good at it and so whenever we go somewhere she always has a camera and takes great shots of her kids and my kids and all the action, and posts the results for everyone to see. Me, I either forget the camera or if I bring it I get all wrapped up in what is going on and talking to people and then I realize when I get home I don't have a single photo to share. Thank the Lord my sister is generous and gives me all the ones of my kids!

I guess what I'm trying to say is I wish that I had had the time, or made the time, to write about what great things God has done in the past 8 months, and what struggles I have gone thru and learned from, and what incredible experiences I have had, just like sometimes I wish I had a photo book of pictures from things I have experienced and done. But truth be told, I have just been too wrapped up in living to put it down on paper, or rather, online. I'm going to try to do better, to be more consistent... but no promises... and it makes me so grateful for the people who are the ones taking the photos and whose fingers fly fast across the keys keeping me updated on all the things they are experiencing in their lives. Now where did I put that camera...
