I'm not complaining, really.

I never get to just sit down and write any more. I'd like to keep up this blog and put some stimulating posts up here and there, but I just don't think it's possible with little kids. So I guess this is sorry for letting this blog die, though that may sound presumptuous, as if you all are sitting around waiting for me to post.

Life is crappy right now. Not bad, crappy. Crappy diapers day and night. Pukey too. Nathan pukes like none other. You'll just be holding him and at the most random times, he just lets it fly. Sometimes it looks like he's painting the carpet. Or I just find him creating his own slip 'n slide with his puke on the kitchen floor. Simeon runs and screams like a madman and sometimes can't understand why I don't always do the same, meaning that sometimes I do. Teeth grow and then sleep stops. Last week we had three nights with 2-4 hours of sleep.

I'm still passionate about some of the same things, and my heart and mind are growing along with my sons'. I'd like to share them with you sometime, and especially tell you stories from Bosnia, but like I said, life is crappy. And crappy is good.

Brothers


You may not know this, but my boys have the exact same age difference as me and my brother, Josh. That makes me feel good. Especially on Josh's birthday a couple days ago. I hope and pray that they grow up as close as we did.
