Sunday Smiles and Checking In

Wellll helllo there friends!

Look.  I know it’s been crickets around here.  For a while, it was an issue of being busy and honestly, not having much to say.  But lately, I actually have some ideas bouncing around in my head and I really, really WANT to blog.  I do.

BUT I BLAME MY KIDS.

No.  Really.  No lie.

So you know I’m a morning person.  I get up about 5:00 and that’s when I write.  I honestly cannot do it at any other time.  Partially because that’s how my brain works, but mostly because it’s the only time in the whole entire day it’s quiet.

EXCEPT.

Lately, my crew has been up and at ’em by 5:15.  EVERY. SINGLE. MORNING.

I have barely had my second sip of coffee, and I hear the pitter patter of little feet.

You better believe I plop them in front of the television and TRY to keep them quiet.  But quick as a flash there’s someone who needs water…I’m hungry!…Mom, Jill’s standing in front of the TV!…Owen’s trying to climb up the Christmas tree!…Can I ask you a quick question?…Should I get dressed?…Owen’s eating potato chips….Mooooooommmmmm….

And I kid you not, I cannot get 47 seconds.  As such, blogging is a physical impossibility.

I can’t even do InstaFriday (which is the easiest post in the history of posts).

I honestly think I’m going to have to LEAVE MY HOUSE and go to a local Starbucks in order to ever blog again.  I’m not even kidding.

So.  All of that to say, I’m not purposely neglecting this space.  I’m not slowly fading away.  I JUST HAVE EARLY BIRD KIDS WHO INHERITED THE EARLY BIRD GENE FROM THEIR MOTHER AND IT IS NOT CONDUCIVE TO WRITING.

In the meantime, I’ve been fairly active on Facebook and Instagram…it’s easy to throw out a short burst of info…a pic snap, a status, etc.  For now, I really have to figure something out.  Dumb babies.

I'm a mom to four. A wife to one. I believe in story. I love telling you about mine and would love to hear yours. There's really no sense in wasting our suffering and not sharing in each other's joy. We're all in this together...even if it doesn't always feel like it.

    So, in other words, your kids are “living” and “moving” and “having their being” – being here and there and everywhere? You’ll figure it out. It’s just good to see you pop up on Facebook/Instagram. Then we know you’re still alive and the kids haven’t made you disappear completely. haha
