When I told my mom yesterday that I have been in a bit of a writing rutt when it comes to my blog, she reminded me that I have more to share than I realize.
I sit at my computer and I think about writing something meaningful to other people. In depth posts about life and kids is what I expect my fingers to start typing… then I get frustrated and I end up writing nothing.
I was reminded yesterday that in-depth writing isn’t what my blog is about. It’s not about pleasing people or making sure I have a ton of followers… though don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my followers… but this blog is about me and my life. I need to stop worrying about what I think other people want to read, and start writing about what I want to write about. Which is my life. That’s why I started this blog in the first place.
Once I realized that, the ideas started pouring in… lots of them.
This blog is about my life, my family, my stuggles, my loves, my heart, my soul, ME!
Our summer has been busy! SO BUSY!
Full of Swimming.
Ice Cream Dates.
Blowing Bubbles.
Boating.
Having picnics… sometimes on the boat.
So while I am out enjoying this amazing summer with my family and not blogging as often as I know I should be… stick with me.
I have a lot to share and I miss you too!
Make sure you’re following along with our adventures on
Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

August 15, 2015 at 4:41 pmWhat I love about blogging is that there isn’t an obligation to write a certain kind of content (we might feel like there is, but really–there isn’t!). Sometimes it’s nice to just reflect on and remember the good stuff of life and write about that. Sounds like you guys have been busy with all sorts of fun!
