It’s fine, I’m fine, Everything is fine!


Why hello there, long time no see! I startred this blog probably over 10 years ago and well life happened. I've always been a writer and have felt led to statt sharing more of my journey parenting kids who are nearing adulthood. There are lots of blogs about raising young children but I think as the kids get older, we tend to stop asking for help and advice. Quite honestly, I feel like I need my village more than ever now. You spend 18 years of your life tired. Fall on the bed, dead dog tired... too tired to appreciate that one day you will miss all of the chaos. So I find myself at a crossroads in life. Almost gone are my days of sitting in the bleachers cheering on my boys. They don't need me as much on a daily basis but they still need me in a different way. The picture above is the day I dropped off Chase at Tech. It was fine, I was fine, Everything was fine. My heart just hurt. That too passed and my job as a mother is still here. It just has new responsibilities. I wonder if I can get a raise? Probably not, so I'm going to blog my way through this new stage of motherhood..  Feel free to follow along!
