It's really hard to believe that I've been keeping this blog for a little over 7 years now. Hard to believe that I've had enough to say to fill up 1000 posts. I never could have imagined all the things that have happened in the past 7 1/2 years of married life!
From babies to travel, everything (for the most part) has been chronicled here. I laid out, right from the beginning, the reason I was blogging and even when I discovered everyone else out in the blogosphere and now social media I think and hope I've stayed true to myself. Not that I haven't learned a few things along the way! I love sharing with 5 Minute Fridays and getting to read tons of new books for free is always nice!
But first and foremost this has been my online scrapbook. I never knew it would be so important as I haven't had time to really scrapbook in over a year and I will never be able to remember all the things I want to without it.
It's funny because in light of the news that Google is doing away with their Reader on June 1st, I have also realized the friends that I've made through this blog. So far only a very few have I met in person, but they are some of the most challenging and encouraging friends, sometimes even if they barely know I exist. Getting to know someone through their blog, it allows them to speak into your own life too.
I'm thankful for blogging and I never imagined how THIS blog would change my life!
Here's to the next one thousand posts!
congrats!!

Congratulations! I just crossed 2,000 posts a few days ago. I didn't think I'd come this far (or I'd be addicted to blogging, like this!) but one of the best perks is 'meeting' lovely people like you!
