Why I'm going to keep blogging...

As you may have noticed...I haven't blogged in a while. This whole process may have had something to do with it...

Yeah, she's pretty cute. And has a sweet personality to match. So her, along with my almost weekly lack of internet in my trailer, and my own spiritual and emotional struggles....these all may have contributed to my lack of blogging.

But I think I will come back. Pinterest and the blogs I've come in contact through it have been a HUGE help to me...posts about parenting, loving your husband, recipes, organizational techniques...all these have been a blessing and so maybe I can be a blessing to someone else.

Also I want to put into words what is happening in life right now. I don't want to forget. I want to see growth, even if it is very small. I want to be held accountable by my friends and not just think God-ward thoughts, but put them into writing and act upon them.

I'm really not interested in becoming anything popular. If no one reads, that's fine. But maybe someone out there is struggling with things I have struggled with, or is living in a similar situation, and my experience can help. Then I'm all for it.

I'm going to try to figure out if I can post from my phone, since that would help the process. But, posts to be looking for in the future...my new Cosette and the life circumstances that brought about the choosing of her name; cooking in a tiny space with no dishwasher and one oven/microwave (all while avoiding the propane money-guzzling stove top); my struggle with depression, failure, and what I've learned from it; things God is teaching a very independent-me through being a mom to two under 2; church planting experience in Salt Lake City, the least evangelized city in the United States; funny stories; helpful tips.

That's just a few. Keep me accountable! I need to write. :)
