Out of My Own Heart of Darkness
My mother passed from this earth a year ago tomorrow. As many of you may have noticed, I took an almost year-long sabbatical from blogging. By Mother's Day last year, it became clear to me that I just couldn't go on blogging about the ins and outs of my days without feeling like it was all too trivial compared to the pervasive grief I was feeling. I had to give myself some time to heal. So, I did.
I thank all of you for your prayers and notes of encouragement over the year. They have held me in good stead. I want to let you know that I am now eager to get back to blogging and I have been tinkering with my blog a bit in preparation for my return. And I do so love to tinker! I look forward to catching up with all of you. God bless you, my dear friends.
August 2008 Update: Thank you all for your sweet comments below and your patience. I'm almost back. I'm just trying to get things together for our 2008-2009 school year. I will probably post something "homeschoolish" for my first real post back in the blog world. ;)
