It's been quite a while since I have blogged regularly. I originally started blogging for Abrahm in 2005. He was deploying to Iraq, and I was 9 months pregnant with Alden and had an 18 month old. At the time, communication wasn't very good over there, and I didn't want Abrahm to miss out on Alden's first year! So everyday I would post pictures of the boys and type out what we had done that day. That way when Abrahm got a chance to get to the internet, he could see what was going on. After he returned home, the grandparents still hounded me for pictures daily, so I kept it up. We kept moving, Abrahm kept deploying and Grandparents kept whining, so I continued to blog. Then Facebook came along and we stopped moving and traveling, so I stopped blogging.
However, as of late, I have quit enjoying Facebook. What used to be a fun way to keep up with family and friends, has turned into posts filled with anger, hate, and rage. I believe that it's okay that we each have our own opinions and beliefs. I love that about my family and friends. I love a healthy debate on issues. I have been know to change my thoughts based on my own experiences, research and counsel from wiser people than myself. I just don't like the tone many people have taken lately, by people on ALL sides of the issues. So I am leaving Facebook and starting blogging again. (I won't be deleting my account since Abrahm's business page is connected to it, but I won't be checking my personal page.) So if you want to check in on our family, you can find us here or you can send me an email at amych47@aol.com :-)
