It's been a year!

Well, a year and two days since I started this blog on Mother's Day of 2010.

How time flies.

Mother's Day is interesting to me for a variety of reasons. This year, it was particularly interesting on account of the fact that immediately prior, I wasn't on speaking terms with either of my parents.

The day I wrote my last post about that little issue, John pointed out that it was clearly eating at me, and that I should probably just be the one to extend the olive branch, even if I wasn't the one at fault.

So, I slept on it, (essentially knowing he was right), and decided to give my mom a ring the next morning. Needless to say, this made her incredibly happy.

Anyway, I came home feeling better - and was greeted by John and the puppies, who had purchased flowers and a little gift for me - to celebrate mommy day, (that's the one for pups).

LOVED IT.

That being said, one year later, and while we're pretty certain that if we kid, we'll be adopting, and we're relatively certain that we will eventually want to take the plunge, we're still not 100% certain about anything - and therefore have absolutely no idea when it even might happen. Circumstances are still a bit too volatile... and thus the blog lives on.
