Apparently blogging isn't like writing English essays, but more like a really long tweet. I couldn't understand how other people (especially moms) had time to blog on a daily basis. Then I started reading other blogs.
I was feeling such pressure to produce literary masterpieces instead of simply sharing my thoughts but I've found blogs that say, "hey check out my other blog", or ones that are barely five sentences long. I think I can handle that (if the kids cooperate).
So today begins my attempt at writing a daily blog, or an almost daily one. They won't always be brimming over with wisdom, wit or charm. They will be honest and hopefully every once in awhile there will be something you can take away to benefit your day. Maybe a book resource, a tip, a healthy recipe, or maybe a sense of comraderie from another mom who is just trying to survive the day.
But hopefully we'll all find ways to not just survive, but actually thrive. I believe this mom role is an opportunity to grow into the person we want to be, the person God created us to be. So let's stick together and we'll make it through even better than when we started.
Today's tip: Read 'Mom Connection' by Tracey Bianchi
I'm almost halfway through it and it's already given me moments of peace, reassurance and encouragement.
