"Isn't it ironic, don't you think, a little too ironic, yea, I really do think". I think it's ironic that the last time I made a post I was awaiting the arrival of said baby girl. Since then, I have had 2 baby girls. I have also moved to a new house and have a new job. Life comes at you fast. Be ready for it.
I think it's ironic I have four feet tall weeds in my backyard because every time our landscape guy could move dirt, it was forecast to rain. Every single weekend in May and the first two in June, except one. The one weekend we were baptizing Kate and blessing Ava and I had family in town. We were using my porch to help host the wonderful love and support of so many. Crossing my fingers for this weekend.
I think it's ironic that everyone is out of school, except year round kids and my kids school. We do get extra weeks off during the school year, but we are still dragging this school year out. Two more half days and then summer really starts for us. Not sure if I am ready or not. But ready or not, here they come!!! The best part of the summer is that my little 3 year old will have kids to play with and entertain her. It won't have to be me all day long.
I think it's ironic that I am making a post because recently I started another blog for a family member. My mother in law was diagnosed with oral cancer. I started the blog for her so people could check it out for updates. Then I remembered my blog, or the lack thereof. I was looking at a few things tonight and decided to post. And the ironic thing is, I don't remember what I used to ever post about. Do people really even blog anymore. I let instagram take over my journaling, so do I continue to blog or not?
Irony. It's an interesting concept.

Ha! So funny! A new post from "bs and the kids" showed up in my feed reader and I was like, "What? Whose blog is that??" lol and behold, it's you. I think that blogs lost their social pull and excitement of connecting once Facebook and Instagram came about -- mostly because the others are just so quick and easy to browse through for updates and to quickly "like" or comment on. With blogs, I still love to read updates from friends and family, but I just read them in my feed reader (like most do) so commenting requires the whole opening up to their actual blog, signing in, etc. It's silly that it makes it seem too exhausting, but I think commenting on blogs has become much less frequent. Still, that doesn't mean there is no value in it. I print all my blog stuff into books, so for me it is great to have a place of journaling combined with pictures. And, knowing that there are still a few readers out there is good for me because it forces me to be at least a little more conscientious in my writing. Overall though I think it only works for most people if they actually really enjoy recording stuff (I genuinely love having someplace to write) or if you're dedicated to keeping it as a journal.
