That's how this blog began- as a way to put my thoughts out into the universe. It felt different than putting pen to paper even though I had no idea whether anyone would ever read my words. What I wanted, I think, was for Molly and Joseph to have a bigger mark on the world. I wanted to make sure their story had been told and that our love and longing for them was chronicled. I wanted their names to go out beyond our own little world and to know that maybe, just maybe, they could have an impact on someone else.
I think I did that, and I think I am done.
I have exhausted the words I can find to express the fulness of their existence and I have grown content with the quiet thoughts of my heart.
There are things I could write about- my other kids, my life, my faith. I have done that before and I could continue on that way but I don't have a need for that. I am not interested in writing from a purely superficial level, but I am also not thick skinned enough to take the heat when more controversial topics are raised. I'm not sure I was ever cut out for blogging but I have appreciated tremendously my experience in this strange little land and the friends I have made.
I will probably keep visiting my blog friends now and then, but I am closing up shop.
Be well. God bless.
Peace.
