Well just thinking about blogs, thinking about Elias, I was curious how many days exactly it's been since he passed on into Glory, into the arms of Jesus. It's been 1 year, 9 months and 13 days. It is all so fresh in my mind, yet also a live time ago or rather a different life. A day doesn't go by that I don't think about him, gaze at one of his many pictures we have of filling our walls, the one I look at every night before I sleep, feel the sting of threatening tears begin and either win or abate for the time being. I miss you my little love and all the days we didn't get to see you grow in.
I think I want to start blogging again but I really don't want it to be just about family life, a journal or purposeless ramblings :) I was thinking about my facebook account and this blog how I use it, how I follow other people but I've been pretty quiet just observing and also I was thinking about how small my circles of fellowship are these days. The majority of interactions I have with peoples besides my kiddos and random strangers at the grocery store or elderly neighbors are my long distant friends on here/facebook. And I love Jesus and need to think about him more, and read about him more and make his words the center of more of my conversations then they presently are so I guess I am going to steer my blog entries more towards that direction....in the direction of the hope we do not see yet our eternal hope... these entries will probably still be just a sort of journal of family life but perhaps more thoughts and conversations about things that matter most in this life, at least that is my goal. :)
