Done With Blogging?

I think I am just about done with blogging.  I don't have the passion for writing and spilling out my thoughts like I used to.  I think it happens a lot after people hit the 2 year mark after adopting.  I've seen so many bloggers stop writing after the baby turns 1 (whether they are the birth mom or adoptive mom).  Cambria will be 2 in September.  Incredible.  The ultra-fast passage of time blows my mind.

I feel like I have nothing interesting or insightful to share on this blog at this time in my life.  Same with Facebook.  I pretty much just share pics of my kids on there.  And I suck at posting pictures on this blog.  I'm so sorry.

Today was the first day of school for Jake and Josh.  Again, no pictures to share.  Oh sure, I took them and Instagrammed them and Facebooked them, it's just a pain for me to post them on here for some reason.  Zack starts school next Monday.   Jake and Josh both had good first days.   Josh had his 1st day of 1st grade today!  Jacob 4th grade.  Zack 7th grade.

I think I started blogging 4 years ago this month.  Yep, I think it was August of 2010.  We had been waiting for "The Call" for  months and it felt like an eternity.  I wish I could see the future.....I would have told myself to hang tight and preoccupy myself until Sept. 2012!  Lol.

I haven't talked to Cambria's birth mom too much lately.  An occasional message or comment on a picture on Facebook.  She doesn't have a cell phone right now, so we aren't texting or talking on the phone like before.  Plus she doesn't usually ask me many questions about Cambria anyways.  Her birthday is coming up, so I'm trying to figure out what to get her.  I've already gotten her kids a couple things to include in the package.   I still need to get pictures printed to mail to her with her birthday present.  I might make a photo book album on Shutter.fly for her.  Cambria's birth father has been liking just about all of the pictures of her I've posted recently.  I'm glad he can see her and watch her grow up from a distance and know that she is happy and doing well.

My first friend when I moved to Phoenix way back in 9th grade is finally pregnant with her first baby....at 43.  I'm so excited for her.  She's having a baby girl and is due the day after Cambria's birthday.  I'm surprisingly not jealous at all.  Usually if someone is pregnant with a baby girl, I get a wee bit jealous!  I love having a daughter and would love nothing more than to adopt another baby girl to give Cambria a sister.  However, the hubster says no way- 4 is enough!

Well, it is really late and I should go get some sleep.  I hope to have some inspiration soon and be back at blogging.
