Exactly Four Years Apart

I've had a little lapse in blogging.

Vacillating between 
having nothing to say, 
to much to tell, 
and flat out busy.

I miss it. This scrapbook of my life. 

Here's the thing.

We had our bio kids FOUR years apart. 

On purpose.
I was NOT going to do two in diapers. 

Our children were appropriately planned 
4 years and 3 1/2 years apart respectively.

In the angst of my youth, it worked.

However, now it is kicking me in the pants. 
Two kids graduating college and high school 
within a few short weeks of each other is surreal.

To say the least.

Of course, I admit that some of my fog is self-induced 
with the realization that my babies are all grown up.
 And my parenting role has changed
 to friend and advisor - when asked. :)

  1. I'm not looking forward to this stage of life where my girls will fly the coop. I can only imagine how you must be doing with all this!! Thankfully you have all those little children - not four years apart to keep you occupied. :-)

  2. This too shall pass---the brain fog I mean. :) Not sure what to say about the 4 years apart thing. :) Lots of new stuff going on--it will feel normal soon! You've done a good job raising your kids--they will do well with real life. :)

  3. Jennifer - you don't have to publish this, but I couldn't find another way to contact you. I wanted to ask if you'd consider placing my new blog button on your sidebar for a little while to direct some new readers toward my blog. Feel free to say, "no." Won't hurt my feelings. But if you'd like, you can grab it on my sidebar. Thanks, Dana
