What blogging means to me

For 3 and a bit years I've been blogging. Its been a place where I can share my thoughts or feelings. Record my joys of being a Mum, or tell someone about something crafty I made with the kids and know that they'll enjoy it too.

Its been a place for me to record moments of gratitude, let off steam, as well as dream....about my future, about my girl's future.



I began the blog for myself, but over time its formed a little following, so when a reader tells me that they've enjoyed a post it means a lot.

My hope is that one day my girls will read the blog, and begin to understand what their Mumma was thinking at the time of writing a post or discover what it was like for me when I was home with them, and maybe they'll learn a little about me as a person not just as their Mumma.

If you are a blogger - Why do you blog? Is it for yourself? Was the blog created for your children so they can read it when they are older, or is it used as an income?

  2. I have no doubt your girls will see so much love when they read your blog Julie. I blog mostly for me (gee that sounds like I'm full of myself!!) But truthfully it's a place to share my thoughts, creativity, lessons I'm learning as I grow stronger, happier and healthier. I had no idea about the sense of community that would come when I began blogging - but it's my favourite part xx
