bummed

I just opened up my morning email, and there, staring me in the face is an invitation.
A birthday party for my brother. It's a save-the-date. Real invitations to follow. My sister is hosting it.
Why am I bummed?
My birthday was last month. I didn't so much as get a card.

easing back in....

Okay, so I've been gone a long time. I am committed, however, to get back to my blogging lifestyle. I've been putting it off and putting it off because it has felt too big:
"How will I possibly fill all of my readers in on all the time that's passed?"
"I don't even have any new photos of Baby Girl!"
It's embarrassing, yes, but I'm sucking it up.
So here we go, I'm starting with some quotes that are helping me get through my job, my mamahood, and all that lies in between:

What you are striving to become is what, by nature, you already are.
Strive to live the ordinary life in a non-ordinary way.
Rectification must come before progress. The field is tilled before the seed is planted.

Phew. I feel better.
