Hellooo...I'm Back..Is Anyone There?

Apparently I've been up to even more than I realized on my last post! "In the Meantime" I have also discovered that I am pregnant and expecting Baby #3 in late September.

Once again, I've noticed how for those first three months all my creativity has turned inward and writing has taken a back seat even though my internal conversations continue to rumble in the background, I simply haven't had the energy to begin to capture the tumble of words and pin them on the page in order to make sense of them.

Chatting with a friend last night, I realized that my life looks nothing like I thought it would as I approach 40. For that I'm grateful because the surprises and cliff hangers have been much more exciting and compelling than anything I might have orchestrated left to my own devices. Isn't it nice that there is a spirit within us that dreams bigger than we can from within the limitations of our own conditioning?

So, for those of you who haven't given up after weeks of silence here, I wanted to let you know that I'm back. I'm looking forward to discovering what new part of me is birthed in this process because I know that so far, each of my children have offered me not only the gift of their presence, but further insight into who I am becoming as the future emerges, one frame at a time.
