So, where to start? I have been thinking about and wanting to start a blog for quite a while now, perhaps as a way to fill time, (oh, who am I kidding, I have no free time!) or perhaps to share those easily-forgotten-but-oh-so-precious everyday moments with family and friends far away, or perhaps to salvage a piece of myself in this craziness of real life. Or perhaps all three. I guess I hope to be able to keep friends and family up-to-date and to enjoy reflecting on those little things that I might otherwise forget. The way my oldest makes the baby giggle like no one else can. Or the way my middle tells the most off the wall knock-knock jokes that are so crazy they're funny. (Knock-knock. Who's there? Orange. Orange who? Orange, banana, apple!!!)
You see, all of my family and most of my friends are back "home," as I will probably always refer to it. We are an Army family, and although we've been back in a year now, there are still days I long for the familiar and the girls long for grandmas and grandpas and aunts and uncles. It's sometimes a difficult thing, this Army life, but it can also be a blessing. Hopefully I can share those blessings as I start this blogging journey.
