Bloggity blog blog blog.....

My first blog---I guess I must be bored. My kids are running around wearing boxer shorts. (a 5 year old boy and an almost 3 year old girl) LOL they are a joy. It's almost 2pm, Sunday. I need to stop being so lazy, and make lunch! The computer drags me in. The rythmic tapping of the keyboard as my thoughts turn into words....*sigh*
I have to break away for a while...this is the first of many posts. :) I promise!!

Reviving the Writer

... Deciding to revive a once-lost memory is intimidating. The will to bare your thoughts, sometimes unedited, for public viewing, conjures images of hiding behind my mother's dress at church -just to get a good peek at things before edging into view.  If only writing gave us at least that safety net.  A conversation with a friend inspired this post, a decade after shutting down and retreating to small blurbs on social media.  I asked why she hasn't 'written that book.' You know, when judging others, you're just asking to be judged yourself--and our toughest judge typically is our own inner voice. Henceforth, I have determined that on this day, in order to practice what I speak, in absolute protest against my tendency to imposter syndrome, I'll be writing again.  It isn't that I stopped communicating but I stopped sharing my thoughts so openly.  I'll update the happenings of the past decade and plan a fresh look to this space.  Everchanging, Kristen

Turns out, Trip did call.....because Genna-Clair supposedly told him to....I doubt she even knows what 9-1-1 is. Trip does because we studied it in our preschool curriculum. But he also knows when it should be used. I'm pretty sure he didn't think it was real...or that it would go through. Well, the police officer came and asked "who the culprit was"-his words- Trips eyes got watery and he was thoroughly embarrased. We talked about who 9-1-1 is for, how and when it should be used, and why it was not okay for Trip to call today. I think he got it. ~sigh~ T...
