Today I am grateful for blogging.
To some, blogging is a chore. Another thing on their "to do" list to feel guilty about. To me, it is relaxing. It is a means of sharing my photos, my memories, my successes, my failures, telling funny stories before I forget them, occasionally venting my frustrations, and recording my personal history. If I blog regularly, it doesn't get overwhelming and I don't get behind and feel frustrated. I am thankful to have such a quick, easy way to share my life with my friends and family.
I also love reading other blogs. Currently on my Google Reader, there are about 100 blogs that I follow. Some are friends, some are family, some are inspirational, some are humorous, some are decorating tips (I need all the help I can get), and some are money-saving blogs that share great tips, coupons, and links. I am thankful to those who blog, because I know how much time and effort it takes.
I am also grateful to those of you who read (and especially those who comment). Although I truly do blog for my own satisfaction and family/personal journaling, it is nice to know it's being read and appreciated. And it helps keep me accountable and continue blogging.

Yay for blogging! I think you will be so grateful someday that you did this while your kids were young. They will love reading all that you have written. Thanks for your nice comments on my blog! You are so right, a comment every now and then keeps the motivation going! Good job on leading music and piano playing! You are awesome.
I just wish I had known about blogging when my kids were babies; it's such an easy way to keep track of all the little things. You do a great job!
