And so it begins...

I've been toying with the idea of getting back into blogging for a while. For a time, it was too difficult. Life hadn't panned out as we had planned, and there had been much loss, pain, and adjusting. It felt too raw to write about, let alone to do so in a 'public' manner, and so consuming that to write about ANYTHING else would have felt like a lie.
But time passes, and new possibilities emerge, and i now find myself not such much at the start of a new chapter, but with a whole new book infront of me.
I've just realised this is all a bit obtuse! The new book is one marked 'adoption.' We've been in the process for a while now, but it will still be a good amount of time before we have any children with us. This felt like a good opportunity to try and process thoughts and experiences, to view them through the lens of faith and to record the journey, the changes, the challenges, and maybe if I'm really lucky, to find  a few people who are walking a similar road so we can make sense of it together!
