Jul. 20, 2008 - Entry Number 100 . . .

I can't believe this is my 100th blog entry!  I know that the first entry was officially last summer, 2007, but I didn't begin to write with commitment until March of this year.  I have found that I love to blog.  It helps me improve my writing skills, keeps friends and family in touch with us and I hope this blog encourages and inspires other moms to be the best mom they can be. 

I love to share parts of my life, it's almost like it keeps me accountable to doing fun stuff with the kids!  I know no one will call me on the Thrusday morning and ask why I didn't post a Wednesday Book Pile List.  I just feel that sense of obligation that as a writer I have people who want to know am I consistent.  I was so surprised to see that I also crossed over the 2,000 site visit mark this week.  That is 2,000 people who came to read these words between the months of March and July.  I hope they heard about the Jesus that I live for and how He is my Savior. I hope they left my site encouraged and eager to try something new. 

If nothing else I blog for myself. I am able to work through issues in my life and then move on.  I find a sense of freedom in my spirit after I write.  It is alot like prayer.  Prayer for me is refreshing and a quiet time as a conversation between God and I. 

I hope to have many more blogging anniversaries that I can share with you.  The 5,000 visitor, the 500th entry, who knows.
