More than 6 months later, I'd like to introduce you all to the love of my life. My daughter, Fern Elizabeth. She is the most amazing, beautiful, hilarious, sweet and gentle spirited human being I've ever had the honor of knowing, and she is all mine. I cannot tell you how blessed I am.
In the time since Fern has been born, we've had some ups and downs and plenty of transition, struggling, and most importantly, growing. Tristan and I were not prepared for starting a family when we did, but it's been the hardest and most rewarding thing that's ever happened to me, and I know Tristan would say the same thing. Due to all the adjusting, I gave up my blog, which is why you all have yet to meet this little sweetheart. I'm glad to say that after a lot of sacrifice on both of our parts, we are now at a place where we can successfully grow as a family: grow spiritually, mentally, relationally, and financially. I'm so proud of our little family.
Obviously priority has changed a little since last posting. In saying that, I'd like to point out that I really have no idea what this blog is about anymore. Probably not as "keep it local" as it use to be, although we still love our local community and supporting the local artists and businesses in OKC. Lacking direction, I assume the path it will go down is a mess of photos of Fern, our family, and lots of lists. Because I'd come unglued without lists.
... and here, with my very own Sweet Darlin', we begin a new chapter of the blog.
