It's been quite a few months since I've posted anything on this blog. I guess I could say that there are many reasons why. With the busyness of the life I am living, sometimes...something gets neglected. I've actually sat down quite a few times and started to write. There are 5 saved, unfinished, unposted drafts, I just checked. I will be honest, I am a private person (living in a fishbowl with a flashing red light on top of my head...haha!) So, even though I started this blog to share things that don't make it into monthly letters or email updates, sometimes sharing my life seems a little difficult. Then, I wonder too, if anything I write or experience could really be interesting enough for someone else to read.
At the request of my family, I did not give up this blog altogether. We got into a discussion about it last night. When I said that the things I write might not be that interesting...they said..."You are living in the third world, Mom, people "over there" find that interesting" :-) When I said I didn't know what to write about sometimes...they said.."You have 5 angels living in your house who are the sunshine of your life..what more inspiration do you need?" (Really??) So, thanks to their (ahem) "encouragement", I'm going to try to revive this blog. I feel there are many things that I could write, if I can just find the words.

WE LOVE to read your blog! Don't give it up....even if it is just a short excerpt! It keeps us connected! Gotta love those "angels"!
ReplyDeleteI love reading your blog. I feel connected in a more familiar way than just the prayer letters. I know it takes time (I tried to do a craft blog), and I commend you for it!
ReplyDeleteI've just started following you, Angela, so it was wonderful to see a new post!! I have a similar dilemma as you, because I started a blog a few years back and haven't been very good at keeping it up either, for the same basic reasons you mentioned... I don't have the 5 angels motivating me though. My 4 little angels have grown up and 2 have flown away. :-( We're enjoying having Amanda & Jordan home for a while on Christmas break, but it goes by too quickly. Enjoy those angels, Angela! They grow up and are off on their own before you know it. Whatever the Lord is doing in your life is worth sharing in your blog. He's probably doing similar things in our lives as your friends and readers. :-)
ReplyDeleteyes, keep the blog! we really do enjoy everything you have to say! Love and miss you guys - thank your little angels for us for encouraging you to keep posting :-)
