Getting Started

Well, I finally started my blog! I have contemplated it many times since my kids were born, but I've always put it off or thought blogging was for someone else, not me. I have some friends with some amazing talent for writing and was always slightly intimidated by their blogs. So what changed?
Really, a couple things I guess.

1. We moved to Tennessee.
     Now, we've moved many times in 6 years of being married and in ministry, but this move was different. We left the only home my kids remember and lots of good friends behind. We also left one set of grandparents whom my kids love so much! That got me thinking that a blog may be one way to stay connected.

2. My best friend is one of the above mentioned amazing bloggers.
     I read her posts almost everyday and they always make me smile. I read them before we moved even though I saw them almost everyday, but I have found myself checking daily since the move hoping that she has had a chance to post that day.  She does lots of posts about big moments, etc in her kids lives, but she also does something else... She posts often about all the little, day to day activities that are so easily forgotten as your kids get older. Those are the things I want to look back and remember, hence the inspiration for my blog.

My next post will come with pics, I promise. ;)  I have officially entered the world of blogging!
