Two and a half years have passed. That’s 912 days. 69,888 hours. 4,193,280 minutes. That’s a whole lot of life!
I certainly didn’t intend for so much time to pass before I was in this space again. I’m not even sure I can even give a reason why. The days passed, the months ran together, until time just kinda blurred all in one smear across my memory. There was always this voice within that said, “You should share this. You might forget it otherwise.” Yet…. I didn’t. And so I did.
I’ve missed writing; recording our lives & giving each opportunity it’s rightful place of importance. My children have grown (1 has been born!) & have accomplished so much growth that I have neglected to document. To purposely remember, because remembering things is not my forte.
This space of mine was born 13 years ago, in September 2006. The amount of life that has been recorded here, by the written word, is precious to me. I have continued to document our lives using the media of pictures & video, yet these letters typed into this format can not be replaced. And should not be ignored.
So I am here again. To pick up my pen, to put to paper my thoughts. Our happenings. The moments in our lives that need to be recorded. And those that really don’t matter, yet are special in their own right. After 11 years of writing, 2 years were left silent. A fact that “just happened”, yet I regret.
The time has come to end that silence.
It truly was a little time indeed.
