It is long past time for me to be in bed, but I find that the quiet time when everyone else is asleep is the time when I can hear myself think and actually put somewhat coherent thoughts together. As I began this blog, in the "about us" section, I felt forced to define our family and by extension myself. At different points in my life I have defined myself as a student, teacher, friend, girlfriend, missionary, waitress, wife, mother, housekeeper, chauffeur, cook, room mother, director of plays, writer, translator, primary counselor, and the list goes on and on. I wish I could come up with a definitive label for myself (in my mind) that encompasses all that I am now and have been. Sometimes "stay at home mom" doesn't begin to describe us. Maybe I am looking for a definition that isn't just what I do but all that I am. I guess I am just ME! and some days that is more than enough! :) Paul laughs and teases me that my inner philosopher comes out late at night, maybe he's right.
