Since my last attempt at blogging, my life has changed. I had recently became a mother of 2. My oldest child, Miss M, is now a precocious 4 year-old going on 16, and my son, "C-man" as he is dubbed, has just turned a wild & robust 2 year-old. I took my photography course which was basically a 6 session introduction to digital photography and getting to know your camera. It was helpful, but I am still working on mastering photography & creating awesome photographic memories of my kidlets. I still am reading. Although, I am reading slowly. The scrapbooking....well, I tried to start again. I have numerous layouts completed, but to put the pictures down and commit to it....that is my challenge. I also returned to work as a RN. I work one day a week (4 days a month). Not to bad, but it does take away from all my "extra" time. Is there such thing as extra time when you are a mother and wife?
Needless to say this is my list of things to do & take on:
- Be a good mom, a more patient mom, a more present mom
- Be a loving wife
- Be a homemaker
- Be a nurse
- Master photography
- Learn to sew
- Commit those memories to pages (scrapbooking)
- Take care of my physical being
- Get organized
- Continue my growth in my faith
- Learn to blog...
- Find a clever name for my blog
I think I may be a bit optimistic of my ability to achieve these things. Since I have not been able to master a few of these in the past 2 years, but I will try.
