Why I want to blog

I have a new out look on blogging.  I want to blog to improve my writting skills and to share my family with those who show interest.  My life is real, messy, and full of love.
Be where your feet are is meaningful to me because it is how I plan to live the life that I have left to live.  I have a lot ahead of me and I want to record it.  I have spent too many of my days thinking about tomorrow and what I wish for it.  Thinking about yesterday and what I should have done.
Today I watched Audery take confidence in riding her bike to her friends house, by herself for the first time.  She wrecked more than once.  She thold me with pain in her voice, "Mom I am never going to give up on my bike."  I put Henry in water boots and let him run through the rain puddles.  He was so overjoyed to be in the mud I thought to myself I should have done this earlier.  My work is exausting and so meaningful.  I am typing this on my phone next to my sleeping Audrey in her dark room.  I love the look of her long dark eyelashes on her soft fair skin when she is sleeping.
