In the Beginning

Wow, my first blog! Isn't it funny - just a few months ago, I thought blogs were dumb...a waste of time, something only people who were full of themselves did. Since then, I've had the pleasure of reading a few friends' blogs and I've been blown away by the love, the passion, the sincerity, the raw honesty, the humor, the grief, the "special-ness" of each posting. I now see blogging as a way to record special memories, to cathartically work through a variety of feelings and situations, to bond with others, and to leave a legacy for friends and family. I've been reluctant to begin blogging due to being rather busy raising 4 children, but I find myself updating my facebook "status" very often, and posting notes that might be better suited to a blog. Of course the frequent requests of friends that I should start blogging has helped get this ball rolling! The final step was waking up yesterday morning and finding that my husband had created a blog spot for me...complete with the color scheme he knows I love! And so my blogging adventure begins...
