...because it’s my blog anniversary!!

One year ago from today, May 30^th, 2007, I was sitting in my room trying to think of what I would name my blog. I wanted to start a blog for one many reasons, actually to many to list. I had a list of a couple of blog names but none of them really stuck. So around this same time that I was starting a blog, I stumbled upon the verse 1 Peter 2:21 and I thought that’s what I’ll name my blog “Walking in His Steps.”  That is what it was from the beginning and still is. I wasn’t to sure how my blog would do but I decided if it didn’t do well I could just delete it. But I decided to continue this blog because I like writing, and doing stuff like this anyway. Plus I was noticing that people were actually reading my blog, and they all enjoyed it.

Here are my stats because I thought you would be interested:

Entries Written: 69 entries
Comments Written: 1099 comments (this is no including Superangel's and Jocelyn's blogs)!

Well I actually don’t have to give away for this special occasion (like the Dixon’s) but maybe next year…just maybe :) For this special occasion I decided to start a challenge. The challenge is called  "Why Homeschool Blogger?" So what is this exactly? Well, I would like all of you, whether it is just a paragraph or more, write why you started a blog on homeschool blogger, why you wanted a blog, and what are your goals to achieve with your blog.

**EDIT - I've had a few questions about this challenge so I'll try to answer them here:

How long is this challenge going on for? Well I'm doing it though all of June so feel free to post it anytime. Just don't forget to sign Mr. Linky so I check it out.

So I just write a paragraph thats all? Yeah pretty much. You can write more or less than a paragraph but be sure to put the banner on your blog so others can join also.

Here is beautiful icon to spread the word on your blog. You can just copy/paste the code right out of the textbox below. It was made by Jocelyndixon (thanks MJ!).
