I was going through my photos to put up a different post and I came across this picture...
it startled me.. the number three.. the chaos of packing.. I sat there staring at the photo and contemplated if I should blog about it... I have yet to see anything so personal be put out there on a mommy craft blog..
I am moving.. again.. 4th time in a couple years.. not because of the economy..or a job change..
but because of together..not together...together..divorced...
I am not sharing this for sympathy or any other reason but to say it does happen.. it is a reality.. my reality...
three instead of four..
the kids are doing great though... we have done what every parent should do..put them first...
but I do not have a perfect life.. nor do I want to give the illusion of one..
it is chaotic.. I have a ton on my plate.. and at times I have been an emotional wreck..
but I am moving forward and accepting change.. and am finding my happiness..

It is so easy to fall into the trap of blogging, face-booking, tweeting, etc, when everything is awesome, going well, or even just the little miracles daily life brings. That's what we LIVE for, so that's what we want to share. It is much, much harder, though, to share when things aren't so great, when times are hard, or when we are struggling with dealing. It takes a brave soul to put that out there. I'm so proud of you that you did. Good job!
I'm sorry to hear that. I don't know you personally but know that I think you have a wonderful energy and that your children are happy and those are 2 things that will take you plenty far in life.
I let my blog take a turn for the personal a few months back. I'm actually doing a "series" now on the infidelity that was in my marriage and how God worked through it to become the center of our house hold. Feel free to read through the last "big" post....I'm starting to let it all hang out and it feels good to let people know that it's not all sewing and cute kids around here all the time. Granted it's been a few years and I've had some time to grow and understand life a bit better...it's still, an amazingly embarrassing, humiliating, IMPORTANT topic to discuss and nobody wants to talk about the real parts of it. SO I took the reigns....it can be very therapeutic, let it be if it made you breathe easier!
