Here we go!

I began journaling for my kids partway through my pregnancy with Ava, mostly as a way to keep my mind of how sick I was, and have continued this with a separate journal for Wyatt. This habit has been great, but I've been thinking that writing for both my children and family/friends all in one place might help me be more consistent in recording our lives. There is so much I want my children to know about this time. Maybe they will find this blog someday - maybe at a really pivotal time in their lives - and realize how very much they were loved, right from the start. Or maybe they'll just look at each other and say, "That's why we're so messed up!" Until then, you all might enjoy a bit of head shaking and a few laughs.
