I feel like my head is spinning lately. Nothing bad, don't worry, just a lot of stuff going on. I feel like I'm just keeping my head above water most days with my mess of a house, Ana is walking now, and leaves a wake of trouble behind her every step, Ian started first grade a few weeks ago, and turned seven years old this past weekend, I've just taken on the role of secretary for our PTA, Greg's work schedule has been crazy and unpredictable, and I've been fighting a cold for the past week and a half or so. It just feels like it's been non stop craziness! But like I said, it's all good stuff (well besides Greg work and the cold that is!), and really I'm not whining! I guess I'm just looking for excuses as to why I've not been blogging lately! There's certainly been enough to blog about! It's just that every free moment that I have, that stupid perfectionist part of me won't let me just sit and blog, I end up thinking of all the catching up I have to do to to bring myself current and I get all stressed out and just walk away! What I have loved most about this blog is that I can look back and read not only about our past adventures, but also about how I was feeling at the time. Like did you know that a year ago today I posted about the start of the real fear for me about Guatemalan adoption troubles? We were gearing up for our visit trip, and were slammed with that information that threw me into a panic, would we ever bring Ana home?! And look at us now a year later, lovin' the heck out of her here in NH! So I'm going to try and be better about just blogging when I feel like it and catching up on the "going's on" as I have time. Hopefully I can let go of trying to produce the "perfect post" with "just the right" picture and you will hear from me more often!
