Firsts.

I've never been one to love jumping into new things. If I didn't intentionally push myself to try new ventures, my world would be pretty small. Nice and safe and comfortable but small. I've thought about starting a blog for a few years now but I haven't because it's something new and unknown and possibly vulnerable--and this girl likes it safe!


I made a decision a couple of weeks back and that became the last push I needed to finally start this blog: I'm closing my Facebook account. Unfortunately it has stolen too much precious time--time on my phone or my computer that could have been spent playing and discovering with my children, or having an actual conversation with my husband. I don't want to look back in a few years and regret having missed out on the things that really matter. With that said, please note: I AM NOT anti-Facebook nor do I think it's the devil!!! I think Facebook can be great for how it connects people and far-away family, which is what I'll miss the most and the reason I finally decided to start the blog. So here we are!


This is so fun already. I think as long as nobody leaves any blasting comments, I'm going to make it past my "first day of school" nervousness.
Welcome and happy day to you!

  3. Congratulations, girl. You are a talented writer and I have a feeling that THIS IS YOUR ELEMENT. You have more "room" for your verbal expression and because of that, this world will be richer.
    I see that someone else dear to us has laid claim to being your number one fan . . . we'll just have to see about that! hehehe :)
    Go for it sweetheart. Can't wait for for more.
