Long time, no write....


Gosh, I can't believe it's been almost a month since I've written anything. Goes to show how crazy life has been.

Little Maeryn is doing great, and growing fast. She and her big bro Remy are inseparable now and the cats have come to terms with the fact that another loud, obnoxious, drooly thing has joined the family.

We're getting ready for our May family reunion - doing our best to clear the land of fallen debris, branches and other storm damage before everyone arrives at the end of the month.

I get so excited this close to our Chosen Family reunions - they only happen twice a year, and are the two times of the year I actually find myself counting the days (and hours and minutes) until everyone arrives.

The beauty of chosen family is truly a gift - to find like minded, loving and accepting people who love you for who you are, faults and all, is an amazing thing. I am so very blessed by those who call me friend, and whom I can call Hearthkin.

At each reunion, we all get badges with our names on them (it is only twice a year and some of us old fogeys are not that good at names) and some of us get badges with a special picture. The pic at the top of the blog is for mine this time - it reflects how I'm feeling - a rainbow of emotions.

Just 21 more days....and then it's hugs all around....man, I can't wait.
