I'm Back!

I like the idea of keeping a blog. Actually I LOVE the idea of keeping a blog. Usually every fall, the idea latches ahold of me again and I spend several weeks reading friend's back-to-school blog posts and dreaming of how THIS YEAR, I am going to chronicle our lives in a meaningful way. And then, life happens.  And happens. And happens.  And eventually even the knowledge that I have a blog sitting out in cyberspace somewhere becomes nothing but a distant memory......again.....until next fall.

So here it is October, and once again there were no witty posts to kick off the year, no back-to-school photos, no jumping on the school room "Not" Back-To-School Blog hop tour.

Unfortunately this year there was a good excuse, I've had health issues that have interfered with all my best-laid plans. And I have to say, that being sick for months at a time, SUCKS.  My empathy meter is however filled to the brim, and I have spent more time than ever before in prayers for those who have struggles worse than I.

If I pass anything along to my kids this year, I hope it's that. Because there is always someone who needs our prayers.
