The year is 2020.
The month is April.
I turned 40 last July.
It has been 2 years since my last blog post.
I am blogging from a laptop for the first time in 8 years.
The world is currently in quarantine.
We are not living on our homestead at this time, due to another flood 16 months ago.
Our third child is set to graduate high school in another month or so.
I started a soap business (sort of) at Christmas time.
Any of these topics could be their own post ( or series of posts), but I'm really rusty in blog speak. My thoughts feel too complex and weighty to begin to separate and address them. This used to be the place where I could come and sort things out, but once you lose the habit of something, it takes awhile to figure out how to begin again. One thing I've come to understand is, you can't go back, you just have to move forward from where you are.
So here I am.
Starting over.
I don't know how any of this will look as I dig in. I'll probably take time to refresh the face of my blog. I don't even know how much time I will have to give, but I feel the need to do this for my own spiritual growth, as well as for my kids' future benefit. Especially my girls.
I don't know if I still have any followers...I would be pretty surprised if I do...but if I do, please know this is not about the life of a person who has it all together. This,...whatever this is or becomes,...is just a scrapbook of grace. God's abundant grace that takes my own broken pieces and makes them over again as He sees fit. So that I might be useful for His kingdom.
