New Year's Resolution

Well my New Year's resolution for 2012 is to start blogging. Mostly just for me as a journal. I've been inspired by Nikki's blog and what a great job she does with it. I know it's something I won't regret doing and I feel like I owe it to my family to keep track of our lives, so we can look back and remember what happened :)
I started this blog in 2007, and did one post. Nice. It was right before we found out about Luke's autism spectrum diagnosis and honestly I think I've been so overwhelmed by life since then that I haven't been able to bring myself to do one extra thing (like blog). I also think that it's just been too painful for me to document. Like if I wrote it down, that made it more real.
Although my life hasn't gone exactly the way I thought it would, that's what life's about. I have many blessings, and I am thankful for my trials. I want to look back at this blog in 10 years and remember what a fun, hard, crazy time of life this was...

That's all for now. I promise I will keep posting and I will add pictures :)
