Well here it goes my first post as a blogger. I have toyed with the idea of a blog for years. Especailly after seeing an Oprah episode about a women who started a blog and ended up making about $10,000 a month off of it, but being realistic I decided that hoping to make it rich is not a good reason to start a blog. I figured I am not politcal , I can't share great recipes or craft ideas  or gossip about celebrities so I never started one .

Then one day last week while I was on the phone with my mom she suggested I start a blog, then a few days later my older sister suggested the same thing . I gave it some thought and decided maybe it wasn't such a silly idea after all. I know lots of people who have blogs to keep far away family updated , I also know others who write them in place of a journal,( but  I am not going to to write in here all the things I write in my journal) , I also know others who do it as a form of stress relief. So after considering all the reasons why people start a blog here I am writing one. So if you are interested in keeping up with the current events in the life of my small family you have come to the right place. I won't promise regualar posts . I sat down a few days ago attempting to start one, thinking I had a chance because the girls were playing together nicely, but alas not 5 minuites later I am asked to push someone on the swing, other times I had to play checkers, clean up messes, read stories, chase a naked 3 year old ........

Tommorow I plan on blogging about our 4th of July .
