Finally took the plunge....

It sure was easy to set this up, now what?! My favorite second younger sister suggested blogging might be a good *outlet* for me last July when she was here visiting. I'm still not sure what she meant by that and why she thought I could use an outlet. Hmmm...something to ponder. Could she have meant my life is incredibly boring? hehe Could she have meant I needed something interesting to do? Either way, its been on my mind since then since I do love to write and have wanted to have a way to do that. So maybe this will be it for now and we'll see where that leads. My college days were spent dreaming of writing articles for newspapers and even better, magazines! Yet, life had a way of taking me on other roads which has been wonderful and I feel blessed with what God has done in my life.

But now I'm not at a point where I have a little time to myself to put my words down on paper (so to speak-the keyboard actually!) but yet I'm finding myself struggling with this newfound freedom. My life has been pretty *textbook*, graduation high school, get married, finish college, have 3 children, a house and 2 cars. I guess I never took a look at what would come after that if anything.

So this blog will be an outlet for me as my sister calls it, a way to remember all the great and cute things my kids do and a daily reminder for me to enjoy the place I'm at and all the blessings I have. :)
