Do I Begin Again??

Ok, I know it has been about FOREVER, since I updated my blog. Did I have my second kid in my last post??? I really have no idea. With the increasing popularity of Twitter (@stephanietlee) and Facebook it has been easier just updating those and letting the thinking part of my brain kill this here blog. You know we live in a quick and easy world. That is what I feel these other social platforms are. Quick and easy. So, I am considering starting up my blog again. Just for those family and friends that really want to hear what is REALLY going on and not when I am going potty and what I am having for dinner!!!

I have been doing a lot of making my life simpler this year. The big thing is that I have closed down (or am in the process of) my children's boutique The Pink Elephant. It has been bittersweet, but I have decided to be a better wife and mommy. I really don't want to look back at my grown kids and have regret. My mom tells me all the time that she used to long for the ability to stay home and be with us as kids, but she could not. We have been blessed beyond measure and I feel it is my job and my duty to the Lord to be the best caregiver and friend to my kids and Mark as I can be. With that said, I will NOT by any means be perfect, but I will have more time for my family and for ME!!!

Besides helping at Abbie's school, working out (as much as I can), and playing tennis that is all that has been going on. I am sure there is more, but for now that is all I can think of. I am tired of feeling everyday that I did nothing but time got away. It is time to focus and GROW UP!!! Here's to my New Year's Resolution about 1 month early. Let's hope it works. It's time to have purpose, a Christ centered purpose.

I hope to include all of you in the journey, but if I decide to ditch the blog again for now, then.... I guess check me out on twitter or Facebook, or just call me!!!

Love,

I'm so glad you are going to start blogging again. I have checked in on you a time or two. I'm sad to hear that you are closing the Pink Elephant but so happy that you are going to have more time at home and that you are doing what the Lord is leading you to do. I hope to see you soon. Can't wait to read all that the Lord is showing you!
