Hi Rachel! Thanks for the tag. I just did the meme!

Off to get a crying boy from his crib!

Have a great day.

Have I thanked you for tagging me yet? I don’t think I have.

Thank you!

Will put it on my list of upcoming posts to write!

Wishing you a lovely cinnamon-scented fall weekend,

I’d love to do this. Thanks for tagging me.

I really like learning more about you through this. I think it is great that you spend so much time on everything you write. Your posts are beautiful and always so fun to read.

I used to move easily from the laptop to my duties and a mother. Then, the draw to the laptop became a bit much. So, I took a break and since then, I’ve found it much easier to keep it shut when I need to. (Sorry, now I’m rambling.)

How fun! I found your site through MckMama, but I am an avid reader of Whitney’s blog. Cool to find connections.

Oh lady, you are lovely.

After being tagged along with you by kelly Miss Love Well, I think I’ll just ditto your every word. Or would that be wrong?

Really though. So much of what you said spoke my heart. Obviously it was really speaking your heart, but it felt good to sense this little kindred spiritedness (totally a word) about blogging.

You exude joy, by the way. That was my favorite thing about you on Saturday. There are other beautiful things too, but that just really jumped out at me.

When I started my blog, it was simply so that my parents and siblings, who live a couple of hours away, could see Mira as she grew. We added Amelia to the mix, and I noticed that, while I still want my family to know about our weekly adventures, my blog has now turned into a simple family archive. Every month, I print off the previous month, three hole punch the pages, and put them into a three-ring binder, divided by year. I have a wonderful chronicle of everything my daughters do while growing up, stories they tell me, funny things they say. It’s going to be a keepsake I won’t ever regret having.

I came over from MckMama’s page.

I enjoyed reading this blog you wrote. I think I will stop by more often.

I started to blog because I wanted to keep family and friends informed. But now that I see how big the blogging world is I am inspired. God brings us people to influence our lives in so many ways. So now I blog to “talk” to those who I do know and those who I don’t know.

Thank you for your words and thought provoking blog.

I think I’m going to attempt to finish this meme for later this week. It was so nice to meet you the other day–sorry if my comment contributed to your feelings of guilt about not blogging! I was just being silly…

My joy was made more complete just by reading the reasons you blog–several resonated deeply with me, and one (#1) is not a gift I have, so I love that you love storytelling, because me? I love listening to (or reading) a good story!

Thank you for sharing your stories. I always enjoy visiting.

In the summer I met up with a knitting blogger who was in the maritimes visiting and my husband just about had a heart attack that I was going to meet in real life someone I had met on the internet. It was great fun though:)
