First Post

After being an avid, albeit silent blog reader for years, I have decided it is finally time to start a blog of my own. This decision was reached after a night of struggling to fall asleep. My mind had been racing of all the things I wanted to do to be a good wife/mother/teacher/friend/daughter/Christian/human. On the list of things I wanted to do was be reflective, be a treasure chest of our family's happy memories, keep a baby book for Lake, and stay in contact with family and friends. I decided that night at 11:30 pm, a whopping 40 minutes before I would be woken up for Lake's fist night feeding, that I would start a blog. And now look at me, only a few weeks later, I actually started it. I hope this place becomes a space where I can record my thoughts about what I am learning as well a record of all the cute things Lake does;)
