Message from the Future

It is now August of 2021, and the girls have been asking me more and more to see old pictures and videos from the blog.  We have such a good laugh together watching what feels like a lifetime ago.  As I think back to how I have not kept up my blog since 2019, I am filled with regret.  At the time, it made sense.  Life felt overwhelmingly busy at AES.  We each participated in numerous activities outside of school, and the community held so many events during any given week that it wasn't uncommon for us to be triple-booked on a Saturday night.  

The girls are now both in middle school, and I can't believe that 2/3 of their childhood is behind us.  I try to savor each precious moment I have with them, and we all want to be able to look back at our memories together.  So, I have decided to start up the blog again.  I will do my best to add current updates while also slowly trying to add posts from the "missing years" of 2018-2021.  My older posts may not be as detailed as they would have if I had written them just after the event, and perhaps I may only be able to add photos at times.  But I still think it's worth an update, and I want to keep those memories documented.  So here begins the next chapter of the Walker Family Blog!
