To Blog? Or not to Blog?

For awhile now, I have wanted to post a blog. I just didn't want people to feel like I was copying them or doing what everyone else was doing. And I'm not. I am doing this for me.

When I was in middle school, I found a love for journaling and it helped me through some of the hardest days of my life. A part of me misses it. I had fun doing it and it helped me collect my thoughts from the day.

Now, as a mom of two, I don't want to forget the little stories, the little moments. People always tell me to "write it down", but honestly, I forget by the time I'm off of the phone or get home. Some days I feel like I have a million things that need to get done by bedtime and I don't have time to jot it down. But, I don't want these memories to slip away. Some are funny! Milestones! The little things in life usually matter the most. Sometimes, I just want to call someone and tell them all the cute things Hunter says or the new things Brody is doing. I just don't have the time! Or, I think of it as I'm falling asleep.

So, my hope for this blog is to capture the little moments in time that I won't get back. A way to share with all of you the current events in our life and a way to share with Craig while he is on the road. I don't have enough time on the phone with him to tell him everything and when he calls, I am exhausted and say "Yep. We had a good day. Good, but busy."

Sometimes I just need a place to go to vent about something. Ramble on about something that might not make sense, but if I get it out, I feel better inside. So, there may be some of that too. Who knows!

I'm excited about this. I'm not sure how often I will post, but hope to often. Hopefully it doesn't turn out to be boring, but if so, oh well. It is my space to write down the things that matter the most to me.
