I always somehow stumble across another blog, no matter what I happen to be looking for. Some of them boring, some of them strange, but a lot of them I find myself relating to, mothers who share tips; who revel in their kids triumphs both big and small. Coupon clipping, hair color and even potty training; mothers blogging about the mundane yet making me feel connected at the same time. It's not that its stuff I've never heard from a girlfriend at lunch before, but it's real and it's what I live each day and sometimes reading them makes me feel less alone. Please don't mistake me for a lonely hermit that's socially challenged; it's not that. I am happily married with three children also with a full time job & friends two cats, a dog and a mortgage...ahh yes, the American dream, yet sometimes, in my thoughts about silly things I feel alone, like maybe...just maybe I'm the only one that thinks this way and them BAM, I see someones blog and its like self affirmation that I'm not entirely a freak maybe just a little. I also think that the sheer fact that I don't know the person that's sharing these triumphs and trials is in itself the intriguing factor for me. And so my blogging journey begins. I am approaching 30 (Yes I know it's not that impressive of a number) and thought it would be fun and challenging to try something new this year. Blogging looked like a good way to be somewhat artistic without being messy because frankly the kids do enough mess making.
