Less than the idea that I feel like I’m neglecting people out there in internetland, who are religiously checking my blog every day, I feel like I just need to touch base with this website once in a while so that years from now I can look back at it and see that it wasn’t completely forgotten.
Even though, it will look that way, and I know that I still ridiculously feel guilt over my updating, I don’t know what to say. Let’s just be perfectly honest here folks… I keep writing in here and posting pics for my mom and for Gramma Genie. Everybody else can follow me on Facebook or on my other blog or via emails or just fade out of my life like many have. Forgive me if that sounds callous, I don’t mean it to be, just an acceptance of a reality that has forced itself on my life.
So, in the spirit of alleviating my guilt over neglect, I stumbled across these pics this morning and felt inspired.
This was actually quite some time ago, months even, and she’s turned into such a big girl that this is a wonderful shot at her inherent personality. She was watching Sesame Street and just happily came over, grabbed the hat off my head, and plunked down happy as Larry.
Probably taken about the same time, October or so before the weather got warm, and she’s just trundled out of bed, grabbed a book and plopped down to read. I know that’s not quite amazing, but this child amazes me. Those of you that know her know what I mean.
K, that’s about all I got. I’d give you updates, but I don’t feel like it right now. Things are good, some things aren’t as good, I laugh out loud heartily at least once a day, kiss my wife with passion and love at least once a day and hug my kids like I genuinely love who they are at least once a day.
I think I’m doin’ alright.

Drift away? Never. My RSS reader sings at me, telling me you’ve updated and lo and behold, pictures of the cutest kid in the world.
You should totally put her in a Pageant.

What can I say to express my delight and heartfelt appreciation at being one of the aforementioned “targets”?
It is, after all, hard to be half-a-world away from the most amazing kid in the universe…

Not content to “just fade out,” and not a member of Facebook (my reasons are my own), I am on email updates. I have faced it, life is busy. But being able to see pictures and read updates does offer some connection, and some comical/personal/meaningful relief to otherwise vanilla days. Thanks for that.
Some of us are out here reading, and we are appreciative.

p.s. Where is your other blog?

Facebook bits just aren’t enough for me so I will keep on enjoying these occasional updates as well. I am insatiable!

Fade away? Surely you jest; why we still have that photo of Uncle Judd and his family (holding Flat Stanley) stuck to our fridge. My kids want to come to Aussieland to meet you in person and play with your kids. Just sayin’.
