My very first blog! How exciting!

My first attempt at a blog.


This should be interesting. I have never done well with written expression but, here goes.


The decision to start a blog was based on many things.


1) So many things are happening so quickly. Not really one thing in particular it just feels as if life moves at such a rapid pace, that I don't want to take anyone/thing for granted.


2) My friends, Lisa and Melody, blog and I have so enjoyed reading their adventures and thoughts.


3) Life is short...and at times hard. What better way to express yourself (esp since my drawing consists of unrecognizable stick figures only)?


4) On most days, I am able to acknowledge and show gratitude for the things with which me and family are blessed. On the days when I am not, hopefully this blog will help to pull me back up.


5) I thought it'd be fun.


So if you are reading, thanks and stay tuned. There will surely be more to come.


Much love,


Amanda
