around the bend.

one of the reasons i keep this blog is to document our lives. sometimes my focus changes depending on what's going on. sometimes my heart is heavy and i need to process it. and sometimes, like this summer, it's just good and restful.

you may have noticed i'm not blogging as much. this will change as the school year starts. but for now, we swim. and play. i think i might yell a bit more because everyone is home? i'm not cooking very much and i'm not doing a bunch of chores and home projects. we're just living.

(who's that strange man that photo bombed our picture? my dad.)

and i think this might be the calm before the storm. things are changing. i know it. i feel like we're taking a picturesque and leisurely walk to the edge of the earth and then all of the sudden we're going to need to jump into the unknown.
you're like what? what are you talking about?
(this is my exact line of conversation with God over the last month, so i know how you feel)

i have to be vague for now. my least favorite quality in all of social media. but this year is all about eating my words, eating all my "I'll never's", so why not start right now in this post?

i meant to come on here and talk about how great these personalized towels are from personal creations and how the kids love them and think they're soft blankets. and how no one can fight over which towel they get because, hey! that one doesn't have your name on it!

but, then i come and talk about change brewing. how i'm sad to see summer slip through our hands but strangely excited and terrified for the jump.
