Responsibilities





With my dear husband starting a new job comes a few new "responsibilities" for him and myself as well.  Being a part of a boarding school will consume you, yes we were warned, but I am realizing it much quicker than I thought I would!  I am soo happy that we are where we are though!  I cannot thank God enough for this opportunity.  I MISS *HIM* THOUGH.       Being a senior class sponsor, orchestra and choir director there will be many trips this year, not including all the other "responsibilities" he now has.  This weekend started the madness.  He left this morning to a place with the senior class that no one knows where they went, and to top it off...he has no cell phone reception or electricity.  It was storming this morning when they left, so hopefully they won't be rained on the whole time.       I had hopes and plans to go along on this first trip, but after finding out that we wouldn't be able to take Gabriel, and with Henry coming home..I had to stay back and be "responsible" for them.  I must say, I sort of threw a little fit about not being able to go...nothing serious or too crazy, but I was just bummed.  The one thing about moving somewhere completely new  is not having old friends around to call up and hang out with.  I have just been cleaning and playing with my "responsibilities" today. HAHA!  I will say one thing, I am thankful I don't have children at this point in my life, Henry and Gabriel are ENOUGH! :)  I have never been one for taking on "extra" "responsibilities", I find it difficult to add unnecessary stress into my life. That may sound selfish, but I think it's very thoughtful :).  Imagine if I said yes to things I couldn't find time for, or if I had a baby just because I liked the idea of being able to call it mine.  What a mess my little world would be in.       Right now, I am happy with life.  I do sometimes wish animals, Gabriel, could take care of himself, but...that wasn't part of his resume. :P  Henry, I am not too worried about..he is a cat, and they pretty much do what they want..I LOVE THAT!!  :)   Aaaaahhhhh...the "Responsibilities" in life....

Looking forward to my partner returning home safe and sound.

The Questions...

Do we choose to let our past define our future?  How do we live for today?  How do we find peace when we are living in fear?  Should we embrace change or run from it?  Those heartaches... how do we heal?  Where do we turn?  Is anyone on our side?  Will we ever survive these trials, these battles, these valleys?  How do we get back up? Questions that everyone will ask themselves at some point in their journey through life.  Who do you run to?  Who do you trust?  Where do you find your hope?  Family, friends, neighbors, preachers, teachers, counselors, social media, alcohol, drugs?  I think we have all fallen and crawled to the path of least resistance only to find ourselves in more despair.  The "easy" way out isn't always so. We must be broken.  We must be shattered.  We must be torn.  We must be shaken.  We must be molded. The only place to find true peace, true love, true happiness, true jo...

my intentions:)

Once again, I am writing in hopes to encourage myself to be a little more intentional about keeping up with this little blog I started 6 years ago.   In my short journey with the twins and G, I have searched the internet for any and all advice, info, reviews, and help in the form of blogs, forums, and videos.  There is plenty of all of that out there, but to my dismay I haven't found a lot of what I have been searching for.  My hopes in writing about our family's experiences and opinions, is that another mom or family with similar dynamics as ours will find it helpful.  I may not attract anyone here, and that's fine too.  I really just want to be able to look back in a few years and be able to smile about the journey.   A few things I hope to blog about are: Postpartum blues Marriage with infant twins and a 3 yr old Breastfeeding Twins Domestic travel with infant twins & 3 yr old International travel with twins & 3 yr old A day in t...
