Some call me part of the "Sandwich Generation," but as a chocolate lover, I've chosen the Oreo reference. As mother of two kiddos in elementary school and more recently becoming co-guardian of my brain-injured and alcoholic father, I'm learning the fine art of balancing parenting with caring for a parent. This blog is a way to keep me writing and reflecting, but perhaps in the process others might connect or be helped in this sharing of experiences.

Rolling With It
It took my ten year old son to teach me that not everything I write on here needs to be a thesis - in his two short days of starting his blog, Asher has more entries than I do, and I've had this darn thing up and running for months!
Even now, as I tell myself to just relax and write what comes naturally, I find myself worrying about proper grammar, and whether my thoughts flow, etc. My goal going forward is going to be to be more "kid-like" in my blog process. Be spontaneous. Have fun with it.
So for today, I don't even have anything big to write about, I'm just making a pact with myself that I'm going to follow the lead of my darling son, and when the mood strikes I will take a few minutes to capture a thought or image, sit down at the computer, and just roll with it.
