Blog or No Blog?

So I've been back and forth in my mind about whether or not to start a blog.  I've received some kind encouragement from friends that maybe I should write more. 

Really the question is more about....hmmm....do I really want to expose my life to the world....well, I don't know because....

I'm not exactly your typical "mommy blogger."  My family dynamics don't look like what you would hope to find in a more perfect world.  I'm living the life of a single working mom (used to stay at home and homeschool, but can't now due to financial reasons), live in a cheap apartment (that is not decorated like a Better Homes and Gardens magazine), I only have 2 kids (instead of like 12 or something- don't get me wrong, I love big families super much!), I love to craft but haven't in a while due to lack of that little thing called time that I never have enough of.  Not to mention, I wouldn't probably post lots of pics if I did since it would go something like this....

Yeah....nuff said on that subject....

So, to blog or not to blog???  

Obviously, I decided the answer to that question was a YES or you wouldn't be reading this!  ;)

Why? 

Well....because I decided that I didn't have to fit the profile of the perfect mommy blogger to write about life.  That I didn't have to be one of those perfectly perfect pinterest moms (more power to you if you are one, I live in perpetual awe of you!)...that maybe, just maybe, I could just be ME!  :) 

Maybe my life isn't perfect, but I love my life, love my kids and do enjoy writing quite a bit. God has blessed our family a TON with way more than we even need.  And, I am truly happy, in fact, pretty much bursting with it right now!  

Life has taken some crazy twists and turns and I'm learning to hang on and enjoy the ride!

So, stop by and read from time to time if you think you can handle it.  ;)
