And we're back

Where to begin.  I've thought a hundred times over how to re-start this blog, to get back on the horse, to try again. We even got me a new computer to help me get back on the horse! And yet, it's been almost two years.  I've struggled with the guilt knowing I started this blog as something Kaylen could look back on and managed to let fall by the wayside for too long because I didn't make it a high enough priority.  As I missed more time, more pictures and more updates, it got harder and harder and harder to pick back up again.  I'm a little OCD that way in that it's hard for me to skip over and as going back and filling in the gaps became more and more daunting, it just never happened. Had some issues with contemplating changing the URL and/or making it private... ALL kinds of reasons to procrastinate in coming back.  Have I mentioned I'm a procrastinator? Thank God my husband is NOT. Long story short > major mom fail for me.

But as I embark on another new journey with my family and have committed to writing updates for my mom and her health (more on that to come.........), I knew I needed to find a way to get back to this, to posting and keeping record of my family as well. For all of us. We struggled through some hard times the last couple years and 2013 was generally not good to us (again... more on that to come... ish) and that may have helped me stay away, BUT this is a new year and with everything in me, I pray it will be a much much better year.

SO, this is my commitment (eek!) to come back.  To come back to posts and gushes about memories, updates, pictures of my beautiful family and now 4.5 yr old (WHAT!?) intelligent, funny, gorgeous daughter.  The times are flying by, they say that happens, and she is getting older right before our eyes.  Gregg continues to blow us away in all he is learning and the rate in which he's learning it.  He continues to impress greatly, score well, and strive bigger with every step.  And it's time to come back.  I didn't make a new year's resolution, but I think this is it.  Keeping up with this blog and the updates on my mom. We have been forced to accept the bad and embrace the good. Ready to continue to tell our story, to be honest with this site, regardless of who sees it but more for ourselves to help remember the journey.
