A few weeks ago I went through some old blog posts about my kids.  I sat there for an hour or so, just reading old posts and chuckling to myself.  There were so many things I had forgotten.  So many things I would have never remembered if I hadn’t blogged about it.  Then I started thinking about how I don’t really blog anymore. *sigh*  I don’t really have any record of the past couple of years and that is so sad to me!  I want these memories.  I don’t want them to fade off into nothing.  I feel like I owe it to myself and I owe it to my kids.  So, I have a new resolve.

I shall blog.

So I sat down to blog.  But so many things have happened since my last post!  I want to tell you about all of them!  Like what we did last summer.  And how we survived the apartment.  And how the new house turned out.  And how I feel about moving.  And I want to tell you every detail about my cute baby Jillian.  And tell you all about how Aidan loves piano.  And how Mason steals my heart.  And a million, bajillion other things.  But darn it, every time I think about it I get overwhelmed.  So. Much. To say.  I feel totally overwhelmed.

So this is me, making an effort.  I want to do this.  But I can’t put so much pressure on myself.  I’ll blog about one thing at a time, once a week or so.  I will not feel guilty for not writing about everything.  And I will not feel guilty about actually taking the time to blog.  That was a HUGE reason I stopped.  I was feeling like there were so many other things to do that were better than this.  But I realized the past couple of weeks that this really IS important.  And not so much for others to read it, but for me.  I want this for me.

Let’s do this thing.
