Full disclosure, I have no idea what I'm doing or what will come of this!
But...I've been encouraged to start a blog, so here I am! I will admit I'm a little nervous and unsure of myself. I am excited though! This blog will be about daily life - things I'm doing, new things I'm trying out, life with 2 boys, life with special needs kids, diy, shopping and decorating on a budget, books I'm reading...pretty much whatever I'm doing will probably pop up here! I'm an all-over-the-place, passionate person. And I'm learning how to embrace that and be me! I'm learning that I can enjoy my life and what makes me happy while caring for those I love most!
A little background on the blog name - An Adventure or Tea? - is a portion of a quote from Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie.
Peter asks John, ""Would you like an adventure now, or would you like your tea first?"
He's hoping to get John to come along to sneak up on Captain Hook. Wendy says "tea first" and I don't blame her but what Peter is trying to say to John is "do you want to be brave and do something exciting and new (an adventure) or would you rather stick with something comfortable and start with tea? Wendy is happy to stay in her comfort zone and have her tea first, putting off the new thing and maybe even forgoing it all together in favor of her norm.
And so I'm learning to say "yes!" to the adventure first! I'm also learning that I can often have an adventure and my tea too! But sometime I need the reminder that I should chose the adventure first! Then, I can have tea, because there will always be time for tea!
I hope you'll come along for the adventure with me!
