This One Is For Shanelle

It has been almost a year since I've written anything here.  My second to last blog post was written on the eve of my 32nd birthday, and in just 3 days I will turn 33.  This isn't the first time I've taken a "break" from the blog - but over the last year it was looking increasingly like this particular break might become permanent.

My friend, Shanelle, helped changed my mind.  (She is very persuasive.  And persistent!)

But there was another person who really won me back over to the idea in the end.

World, meet Asher Malachi.

He is adorable.  He is wonderful.  And his hair alone is worth opening this blog back up again.

Posterity needs a record of this, don't you think?

I probably won't be writing the same type of blog posts as before.  But then, I'm not the same person I was before.  And we aren't the same family.

We are deeply enjoying the beginning of a whole new life - with a whole new set of stories.  So that's why I'm giving the blog another go - because I cherish each and every memory of Eden recorded here, and I want to add to her stories.

And I want to start with his.
