Not sure which of the three has actually changed the most.
They make my heart melt!

Blessings at Work
Ever since October, my mom and I work at the same place! It is such a blessing for me when people realize she's my mom, for them to say things like "Oh, I just love your mom" and "You're so lucky to have her for a mom" or even "She doesn't look old enough to be your mom!"
I feel so blessed that our lives cross paths at work! We eat lunch together as our schedules allow, which is usually once or twice a week! This morning she blessed me with a warm cup of fresh coffee! THANKS MOM! I love you!
Proverbs 31:28-31
Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.” Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

The Truth About Blogging
I just wanted to write an update and see what YOU think. It's no secret I've been away from my blog. I guess it's obvious, especially when my HUSBAND asks if I'm going to blog any more! Wow, I didn't know he cared. He said it's a great way for him to remember what we've been up to, and a great way to get my intake on what we've been up to. He also noticed journaling is a way I relieve stress. No blogging lately= no stress relief? Well, not really, I have found other outlets, good thing!
Since starting my new position, I have had a LOT less free time. My job is very full time. While I'm at work, I work- ALL DAY. I guess that's pretty much any full time job? I don't know. I just know that it's basically busy, non-stop all day. I guess I should have known that before hand. All of my previous jobs have had some down times, great for browsing and catching up on other people's blogs, but not this one. Not at all.
And when I go home... I'm home, ya know? There's other responsibilities. I love being a mommy to three beautiful growing children. I love the giggles in the home, the warmer weather and playing outside. I love tucking the kids in bed and saying bedtime prayers. And I love being a wife. I love spending time with my hubby after the kids have gone to sleep. I have to admit, I've loved the freedom with not blogging. Well, plus the fact that we don't have home Internet. I have to be intentful when we do have access. The last thing I think about is blogging, usually.
But I do miss it! I miss journaling, my outlet. Getting things out of my head and trying to make some sense of it on paper (kinda). Keeping a journal of our every day life, what our family is up to. I love going back and re-reading. What did we do last year? And I miss making connections with others, and follow friends and family. I feel disconnected.
Then I also feel behind. It's hard to "catch-up" blogging, once I skipped a few months! I have so many precious memories and times that I want to write them down and remember. But where do I start? How do I get un-behind? The less I journal, the more I use facebook. To update pictures. To stay connected with friends and family. But it's not the same. But it is easier to load pictures on facebook. I don't like that google changed the blogging format that you have to have a host for your pictures....grrrr...it seems like a such a long process to load a picture.
Anyway, I know there will be a time and a place where I'll be back to regular blogging. I'm just not sure when. For now, it'll probably still be random and sporadic. Continue to follow if you wish.
