So many things have happened since I last updated the old blog. Most importantly, I became momma to the cutest little guy in the whole world. Well, at least we think so. Most of my time or should I say all of my time has been devoted to him. I haven’t done much aside from care for him. It has been hard but good and I’m glad that I’ve done it.
However, it is summer and normally I am busy in the garden and going to the farmer’s market and canning and a number of other adventures. But this year,I just didn’t. At times it killed me to think of all of the things that I would usually be doing. As time went on, it became less bothersome as I focused on what was really important. And it feels like love to give up something that you love for someone else. So, if that means it is too hot to take baby strawberry picking then there will be no freezer jam put away. Oh well, I guess I’ll have to buy it from the store.
If that means we bought most of our produce that we didn’t grow from a grocery store (GASP!) this summer so be it! I’m learning little by little that I’m no longer the most important person in my life. Sometimes that means you have to give up things that you love for a little while and I’ve done just that. And you know what? Nothing terrible has happened! Maybe it is healthier to relax in some of these areas and just enjoy what you have and not be so worried about the environmental impact of every single thing you do.
I hope that this summer finds you enjoying life to the fullest!
