Thankful

I am grateful for so many things, just a few of which I shall list here.

• Another wonderful year on this planet, and my first entirely as a mother.
• The privilege to pursue my dreams, no matter how slowly I seem to be moving toward them.
• An amazing and diverse set of friends, from all different times and spheres of my life.
• My family, both chosen and created.

I’ve had so much less time for the internet lately, especially social media. I’m not sure if it’s a result of parenthood, or maturity, or discipline, or just a natural ebb and flow. Regardless of the reason, I think it’s a good thing.

That said, I want to be more present here, in this space I’ve created for myself. I want to share more about what I’m reading, writing, and experiencing. For my own memory, if nothing else.

My friend T.S. has been using a monthly recap format that I quite enjoy. I may need to try something like that…
