I know. It's been over a year. I have been a very bad blogger. Blame Angie Melton! No, don't really blame her. Here's the story: we did a Monday night bible study last year that really challenged me to take a look at my priorities. I had to look at all of the things I think I don't have enough time for, then take a good look at how I actually spend my time. Here's what I realized: i had become a blog junkie. Updating my blog, catching up on other people's blogs, searching the internet for cute new blog stuff. I'd bring the laptop to bed with me EVERY night. It was time to make a change.
So, I made a commitment. I would no longer spend time at night with the laptop. I would focus on my kids, spend time with my hubby, and spend more time in the Word. I would update the blog only during the hours before supper when I had some free time. Well, that was a year ago. Apparently I have no free time! That's ok, I have amazing things taking up my time!
So, while I really do want to keep our family and friends connected and let them watch the girls grow up, you'll have to be patient with me. I will post more often, I promise. I'll mostly share pics, I can do that pretty quickly. But, still no blogging during family time or hubby time.
Now, here's my challenge for you. If you are reading this update because you started checking a friend's blog an hour ago and kept clicking until you found us, take a deep breath, and remove the laptop from your lap. Now, go play with your kids. If they are in bed, grab your Bible and actually start fulfilling that commitment to spend time reading it every day. Then go see what your husband is up to in the other room and have a conversation with him. Stop by and visit with us another day. We'll be here!
