For anyone who is not connected to some area of the blog world, this may not mean much. For me, I am closing a chapter that has been a very important part of my life for over FIVE years, starting with my first post called "Mac and PC Enter Blogworld" on 2/26/2008. I wrote that post without anyone "listening" and it grew to become a place I love and cherish so much that you were the second, right after PC, to know that LB was on his way. The cheers and tears for us at that moment through comments here made this much more than a place to write thoughts, it became a source of love and strength.
I am sad but I know it's the right time. Recently, a new door opened for us. I got a new job. A job that has been a dream of mine for years. I have a precious toddler and I happen to be very fond of his dad:] Another dream come true. In giving my best to both worlds, I have to let some things go and the blog is one area that I feel will inevitably get lost in the mix. In some ways, it already has and I feel bad about that... so I would rather close this part of our story as we live out the next.
I look forward to reflection and making sure I say everything I want/need to in these final posts...
what a journey this has been.
