The Demkos get blogging

So here we are. Four Demkos, trying to figure out how to be a family. Trying to live simply, without excess in a culture of excess. Trying to live intentionally in a society given to whim. Trying to be true to ourselves in world concerned about what everyone else is doing.

And sometimes we even succeed. A bit.

This blog is created to keep family and friends up to speed with Jim, Annie, Drew and Garrett during the busiest time in our lives (to date). When everyone else is asking to hear stories and see pictures, and we are too tired or overwhelmed to make it happen individually, we can turn here. You can turn here, maybe for short personal updates, maybe long diatribes about things we have no cotrol over, maybe for cute pictures of our boys. We hope.

I'm sure we won't update this daily, but I hope that we'll update it more than once. If not, it was a good thought.

I hope this will be a place of honest and open communication. My Dad has always reminded me, "Wherever you go, there you are." This is where we've gone. This is where we are.
