Hannah and I have been talking a lot about blogging. She’s loving the creative outlet and seeing what girls her age-sometimes across the country-are up to. So far, she prefers the tone of it (the blogging teens she’s met are positive and encouraging) to the sarcasm and snarkiness that girls exhibit IRL.

I’ve liked writing for the sake of getting words somewhere. Out of the brain onto something flat. I read a great post  that has inspired me to post more simply for the sake of recording. This is a good idea in my case because my memory stinks.

Up to this point, I haven’t written much about day-to-day or about the kids and I still might not if I think it’s too personal. But a lot of funny happens nearly every day and I don’t want to forget those things. I still have to figure out the boundaries (physically and emotionally). I definitely don’t want to be blogging while the funny is happening, so to speak. Don’t want to be blogging instead of living. So, I’ll have to jot down some notes for blogging later. Emotional boundaries would be anything that would really embarrass or hurt anyone. So, I’ll try this.

I think I’ve worried up to this point that posts would be boring but Rachel makes a GREAT case for not caring. I decided a long time ago that I didn’t care about “traffic” or popularity through this blog. Boring is fine if it helps capture something about our days for us.
