Learning As We Go
Jun. 28, 2008
Two Years

My blog is now a two year-old!  It's funny-- I didn't mean to start a blog, I only meant to be able to comment on someone else's post without being "anonymous."  So I registered with homeschoolblogger.  Then, when I realized I had started a blog, I started posting... mostly so my mother-in-law could see what we do all day and keep her in touch with our kids. 

The surprise to me has been how blessed I've been by blogging.  I love the immediacy of the medium, how "fresh" a post can be, and how quickly others in my cyber-community can give me feedback.    Blogging has taken out of homeschooling much of the isolation I feared.  So thank you, all who comment-- your comments are a great encouragement to me!

Happy Blogiversary!!!

I think that's so cute how you started yours so spontaneously. Not me--I had to think and pray about it for nearly a year! :)

(I was afraid my priorities would get so messed up--I had to feel really sure that it was something God wanted me to do, not just something I knew I could do well, y'know?)

I too have found it to be such an encouragement! So glad that it's provided you with fellowship and support too.

Blessings--

Jeanne
