As I'm writing this I'm sitting in an old rocking chair at my parents house. We've been back from South Korea for almost 4 months the now, and still have another month to go before we finish up our third move as a military family.
After initially getting into Korea, things got intense for me as a student, a mother, and as a person in general. In order to regain my balance I had to cut quite a few things out of my life, and unfortunately this blog was one of them.
I don't know why I needed the break, but I did.
I don't know why I'm now returning to it, but I am.
All I can offer is this. Sometimes in the creative process, you have to walk away in order to refocus and produce what you are truly looking for.
Living in South Korea was a wonderful experience, and I am so glad we braved the adventure with our two (very) young children. In a way it was an experiment to see how we would fare living with our family abroad, and whether that pipe dream was something we could (and want to) accomplish at a later point in our lives.
Since it has been two years though there is some catching up to do, which I'm sure will happen over the next few months as we continue on our adventures.
Next stop North Carolina.
