It's been so long....

I know, I've been neglecting this spot and some are quite disappointed in my lack of verbosity these days. However, I'm back and willing to spill more of my guts for all and sundry who browse my way.

This has been a tough summer/fall. No doubt about it. I've been brooding about it, not happy at all. But, it's only another drop in the bucket, which is on its way to tipping over. God must know what He's doing, 'cause I certainly don't know what I'm doing.

The other day the family came over and it was a cacaphonic melee. You couldn't hear yourself think, let alone talk or anyone else for that matter. We took some pics and here are some of them.

This, of course, is Evan and Mailea with their nana. These two are so funny together - Mailea a bossy boots tries to reign in the impossible flying Evan. It's really cute too see them together.

My mom really missed us when we were away. She wants me there because I'm her anchor - however, she fared well considering her worry about me. That break is so important. Here we are clowing around in the kitchen. She is never happy with any picture of herself. Neither am I.

Ed and I have been through a lot together this summer, and it has strengthened our bond. I still want to smack him most of the time, but now its a much more loving smack than usual.

I can't say that I've been content for a while in this life I have here, however, I am learning to grow through it.

Hopefully, I'll figure out what God has for me without too much more of a struggle or just waiting until it happens. We'll see.
