So I’ve been a little quiet lately on this here blog.  I have lots of reasons why. I mean working full time outside of the house limits my blogging availability.  And once my girls are in bed I’m D.O.N.E with the day and I don’t make the time to write. Oh, I have the time each night, I just haven’t made it a priority.

This past week I was able to put my finger on some of the reasons why I haven’t  make the time.

I wanted to be able to paint a pretty picture of this beautiful new life I’ve taken on in the last few months.  And I couldn’t.

Which is silly, because I NAMED this blog “Little Miss Imperfect” for a reason.  Because I’m NOT perfect.  None of us are, and I wanted to bring some light to that.  While I love reading mom blogs for ideas and inspiration, I wanted to admit life wasn’t all about organized homes and crafty parties.

So I had to give myself a little reality check about why I blog.

For me it was easy to talk about the reality or “complain” when I was staying home full time.  It came naturally to share with others about how rough things were going because staying home full time wasn’t fulfilling for me.  But now I have a super fulfilling job where I get alone time and use my creativity and planning skills in ways I couldn’t when I was home with my girls. So I felt like talking about the messiness of life I’m experiencing right now might sound like I’m not grateful for the opportunity I have every weekday.

That and I didn’t know how to put into words all the feelings I was feeling with the shift in our family.  When I was home all day I had lots of time to think.  To process my feelings and even pre-write blog posts in my head. I don’t have much of that any more.  But I’m learning to try to build more in.

Because writing on here is therapeutic for me.

So, hey.  I’m back. I don’ t know how often I’ll be here, but I want to start making time to write again. Stay tuned….
