Writing

Since finishing college and the credential program followed by having 3 kids in 1.5 yrs I haven't had much time for writing. When I do write it's usually about the kids. Recently, I told Yuri (my husband) that I wanted to spend more time writing for me. I want to revisit poetry. I used to write a poem a day in high school. Mind you those poems are usually sad, depressing and "emo" given they were written during those days of teenage angst where you are never happy, always in love with someone that doesn't love you or heartbroken. I may type some poems up from those years just because. I also want to delve into storytelling. Kid books. I have always wanted to write books for kids. Who knows, perhaps someone will pick them up and publish them and then I can write for a living?! Wouldn't that be fantastic! Work from home, time with my boys and time doing something I love. Given the state of the teaching jobs in California at least it would be something! Anyway, I hope to continue this blog more and more. Hopefully, like today, my boys will be happily entertained and won't mind mom sitting on the computer. That said, I think I've been on the computer too long. Here's to some play time!
