We took the kids to Cuyahoga Valley National Park

I'm sorry that it's been a few days since I've posted anything, anywhere. Everything is going great and there's nothing wrong at all. I've been very preoccupied lately and kind of consumed by thoughts. I was trying to work through something in my head and it's been a process. Sometimes we just have to take a leap of faith.
