Starting A Blog

When I started this blog, I wasn't entirely sure what I should primarily make it about. I did go back and forth with the idea, questioning myself (would I stay committed? would I find myself staring at a blank screen night after night? would it matter?) Yes, I could have jumped on the bandwagon and started a mummy blog as they call it, but I just wasn't comfortable with that. Putting her pictures out there; putting myself out there. There will definitely be posts about her, but I guess in the beginning, I just didn't want more people judging me. I had so many people around me telling me stuff and instead of giving their advice and letting me make the decision, they wanted me to do what they said and felt that my husband and I didn't know anything. It was not pleasant. Anyway, sometimes I do wish that I had written everything down from the moment she was born, and I feel a little sad when I see others' monthly updates. When it comes down to it though, I know I will never forget every little milestone or cute smile my daughter gives me, or what we all went through together. Everything is etched in my heart. God gave me a miracle and she is my world.

I therefore decided that I shouldn't limit myself. I should write about anything and everything. It would be a place for me to jot down my thoughts, ideas, maybe be a little creative and also to help and inspire people out there the way others' blogs have inspired me and helped me smile through the hard times.

So many people turn to the internet to seek answers and I hope that at least one person reads my blog and gets the answer they are searching for. It would make it all worthwhile.
