Five years ago, I started this blog...and I think I've updated it like maybe 5 times or so since then, but in my defense, I only had half the children that I have now, so I was just, you know, sitting around with nothing to do and lots of free time. Five years ago, I had a 2 year old and an almost 1 year old. My husband was in seminary. We were working with youth ministry and worship ministry at our old church. Five years ago, I knew very little about autism or ADHD, homeschooling, or a host of other topics. Five years. It's a long time. I started blogging, little by little, because I wasn't doing well being isolated at home with two small, crazy people, who I was pretty sure were trying to get me to join them in an asylum somewhere! I named the blog "Everyday Adventures" because I wanted to look at life positively as an adventure, and I was sure having adventures everyday in my job as stay-at-home momma.
Fast forward 5 years. I have 4 lovely children, one with Asperger's/ADHD, my husband is a pastor, we cyberschool our oldest two children and we have a wacko life. We still have adventures. Lots and lots of adventures. Some of them are funny, some of them, not so much. I find myself as mom to 4 amazing, incredible, treasures from God, and I wonder daily HOW to be the mom they need. I think I need to start blogging again. I'm not making any promises. If I can, I will. If I can't, well... I won't. But I want to at least think about the blog again. At least remember the password again. Happy reading!
