It's Been Awhile... Again

As I said the last time I didn't blog for awhile, this blog is just for When I Feel Like It. It's not another thing to add to my To Do list.

That said, I've wanted to post new content over the last three (!) years since my last post, but it's never been the highest priority for my time. Mostly this is just a place for me to talk to myself.

Here's what's been happening in my life since my last post:

• My then-six-month old baby is now an almost-four-year-old boy. He's 43 inches tall and 40 pounds, so I don't know if the appellation Little Guy works any more. 
• My daughter was born 2.5 years ago. She's now a walking, talking human being as well.
• The baby stage was HARD. Sometime I'll elaborate on that. Let's just say that I am not one of those parents who wax nostalgic about their babies. I'll take toddler tantrums and preschooler defiance any day over the constantly-having-a-bundle-of-supposed-joy-in-my-arms-at-all-times-while-I-teeter-on-the-brink-of-burnout. 
• We helped launch a new church. That's a lot of work, people. And a total blessing. 
• Probably a lot of other things happened, too, that I can't think of right now. 

Mostly I'm posting this because I want to talk about the books I read over the last year and didn't want to dive into that post without commenting on my Absence first. We'll see if I get to another post sometime this decade. :)
