My New Home

November 1, 2012 By Erika Zane

1 Nov

The other day I talked about possible changes.  Well, as you can see, I made a decision.

I’d felt like I had outgrown my old blog title for a while now.  I picked it when my first son was only a few months old and before I really had any idea how much my life would change as a mother.  I also had no idea how much I’d want a place that was my own.  A place I can write about all aspects of my life without pigeon-holing myself as a mommy blogger.

So, welcome.  Today, I will also be signing up for NaBloPoMo because I miss blogging and I want to make it a priority.  I want to make communication and transparency in all aspects of my life a priority so I’m not shutting anyone out.

    Love your new design! If i ever wanted to start a blog, i know who I would go to, to help me create a design. I always enjoying reading your blog!! Your blog was one of the first blogs i started reading on a regular basis and now there are so many blogs I read that give me so much helpful information or just a good laugh. So thank you for introducing me to this world of blogs and for always being so honest in your writting. I can especially relate now since I have my daughter. It’s nice to know i’m not alone in my consent worrying or not always feeling like i’m a good enough mom.

      Thanks Lori! That’s such an enormous compliment that I introduced you to the world of blogging and that you get so much out of my blog. You’re definitely not alone 🙂 and I’m sure you’re an amazing mom.

    Funny I came upon your blog. I signed up for NaBloPoMo. AND I’m no stranger to the blogging hiatus. AND I just changed the name of my site.

    (What it used to be was too limiting. I feel free now!)

About me

Hello and welcome.  It’s been a while.  For Lent this year I decided to fast from the thing that took too much of my attention from what is truly important: Social Media.  Though there are countless amazing benefits to Social Media, after about a month offline so far, there are seemingly just as many negatives.  I never realized how much of my brain had been hijacked by it.  I’ve had so many revelations about how much easier it is to move forward when I’m not constantly reminded of the past.  But I still want to record my family as they grow at this ridiculous speed and, I’m realizing, so many of our family’s memories are here.  Those along with so many of the struggles and stages we’ve worked through.  Maybe in the midst of COVID19 isolation and my kids around me so often, I’m brought back to a time when they were too young for school and with me so often.  Writing here during that time helped make up for the limited adult conversation in my days and the overwhelm provided by my… little treasures 😉 My husband, fur babies, three fiesty kids, and I hereby extend an invitation to visit this little sneak peak into our life. We’re super flawed and broken and there aren’t too many dull moments around here.  And I promise it’s not always as magical as some of my golden hour, sun-soaked images would suggest.  There’s usually too much coffee in my system and we welcome all the prayers.  Come on over if you want to process with me.
