I know it's been a really long time since I was last on here. I have come through a time of feeling overwhelmed with life! Which translates into not knowing how to even express it... In the last few months God has continued to stretch me and teach me new things.
Who am I? How do I treat people? Are they safe with me even when they aren't around me? This is what I want friends to be sure of. That they don't have to wonder if I am talking about them in anything other than the most positive light possible. Of course as I teach Tessa about friends, the old adage "if they talk about someone with you, they talk about you with someone else" is one life's biggest lessons. I know that Tessa will go through pain with this, but I hope for her that she can learn it early.
So now that one of my life lessons is out of the way.... I am so excited because my entry way is finally, almost done. We are definitely one of those 80% people. I would say at least Dan is one of those people, but really I know that I am too. Now that life has developed a sort of rhythm we are trying to finish up the 20% of work that is not finished on our house. Of course the basement is a whole different story. :) I am actually still amazed at the amount of work it all is. But on the positive side, 80% is more than enough done to full enjoy the fruits of our (Dan's) labour. We have enjoyed having people in and feeling like we can accommodate so much more than we used to. Seeing that we usually have 3 or 4 or 5 times the number of kids to adults and they aren't all little people anymore it is wonderful and we are so glad that we did the additions.
It kind of feels good to be back, talking to myself, putting thoughts down, not knowing if they'll be read, and being kind of glad about that.....
