The flood

Heidi and I love this blog. Over the years it's evolved from something we wrote for everyone else to something that's just for us + those who happen to care. We found that checking page views and reader distribution was adding stress to the blog, which ultimately meant we posted less. We stopped sharing our posts on facebook and changed our aim to posting for us, for posting for our future.

This is our journal, our diary, the happenings of our family. 

Since January we've had a number of tasks and events keep us away from posting, yet catching up on the blog has never left our to-do lists. Heidi's job with Masterworks Chorale has become more involved, mine at NerdWallet has more-or-less maintained its already demanding state, we've had four sets of family visit, and the girls' nap schedule has become more erratic. We've been busy making memories yet our other demands have prevented us from recording them in a timely manner.

I don't like that. So, for the next week Heidi and I have a goal to post once each per day in an attempt to catch up. We have a ways to go, but it's a start. Wish us luck. I want to ensure we stay on top of it and give each memory the weight and time it deserves. We live a blessed life with two beautiful girls and I want to treasure these days forever.
