I did It! I've started a blog!

Since the new year I have been wrestling with the idea of joining the 21st century and starting a blog. I struggled with the question - "Does any really care about what I have to say on a day to day basis?" I answered my question with a big fat NO!!! I don't do anything special, I'm not one of those super moms that do it all. I don't make all organic gluten free food. I don't live in a huge house in an exclusive area. I'm not in a special club nor do I have some awesome inspirational story to pull followers in to hanging on my every word. I'm just not that mom. Why WOULD I start a blog? I have enough stuff on my plate with out adding this to it.

I thought about what I would talk about or what I would have to offer anyone by doing this. I'm not a mega crafter on crack with a Martha Stewart flare who can tell you how to recycle juice boxes into little green gardens of joy. I don't create these awesome gourmet meals that even picky kids eat. I don't have this husband that is better than yours. I don't have kids that are better than yours. I don't chair every function at my son's pre school with zealous and gusto making everyone I leave in my path feeling less than and unworthy because I heart my kids school more than they do.

Are you still with me? I'm just a mom trying to do her best. I'm a wife. A Mom. A daughter. A friend. I'm making mistakes, burning dinner from time to time, and still trying to figure out at 31 just what is I'm good at. I work part time for money. I mom and wife full time. I think when it comes down to it, we are all the same. We are all doing the best we can to be everything to everyone. We all want to be good at something. I have a friend who can make the best apple pie. Everyone says, "Wow! Jerri makes the best apple pie!" I have a friend who always has great shoes. We all say "WOW! Joe Ann has great shoes!" My friend Melissa - "She has the best ideas" and so on and so on...the point is - we all want to be good at something.

I hope you enjoy my blog. I plan on sharing my little day to day life. Some it should be interesting, some of it...not so much! I do have craft ideas and I like to cook and bake. I love to share and get ideas and others perspectives. More to come later...
Cheers!
