I forgot...

When I started this blog about 5 years ago, my whole purpose was to document our lives, in pictures and words, so that my daughters would have a record of their lives and growing up.  Being child number three, I have very few pictures of myself as a child, and really no written dialogue as to what was happening, and when.  What a shame.  I grew up travelling the world with my Mom and Dad, and what I would not give to read about the day to day of those amazing travels.  My memory as an 8-13 year old has faded.

So my purpose was clear in my mind.  Unfortunately, life took over and my "extra time" allotted became almost non-existent.  That, combined with losing 3 of our 4 parents over the last three years have probably put me in a mindset that was not too conducive to writing about our lives.  Depression takes over and you have your hands full just getting through your day.

As luck would have it, I have been so blessed in my life.  I have a wonderful sister, amazing in laws, wonderful employers, and most of all a wonderful husband and children.  They have supported me and loved me through it all, and now we have begun what I believe will be a positive, blessed time of our lives.  I realize as I look back that the recording of our daily lives that I wished our blog to be has some huge holes in it.  So I think I will take the "Reader's Digest" approach and do a post for each month that has passed, with the "greatest hits" highlighted.  As my motivation to document our lives in words diminished, so did my motivation to document our lives with pictures (which tells me a lot about myself).  So I will go with what I have and try to give a snapshot of what was happening in our lives during the last year.

Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to see if it can
survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.

My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.
I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

Greetings! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website?
I'm getting sick and tired of Wordpress because I've had problems with hackers
and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

I think that what you said was actually very logical.
However, what about this? suppose you added a little
information? I mean, I don't wish to tell you how to run your website, but suppose you added a headline that makes people desire more? I mean "I forgot..." is a little vanilla. You might look at Yahoo's home page and note how they create article titles
to grab people to click. You might add a video or a related picture or two to get people excited about what you've written. Just my opinion, it could bring your posts a little livelier.

You actually make it appear so easy with your presentation however I to find this matter to be really something that I believe I'd by no means understand. It sort of feels too complicated and extremely broad for me. I am looking forward on your next post, I'll attempt to get the grasp of it!
