It's been one full year since I created this blog and it all began with this inspired post. Urged on by friends (you know who you are), I started it as an experiment, a fun way to chronicle our lives and post photos. I had no idea there was so much to write about our little family. One year and 195 posts later, I have to say, I have surprized myself.
I used to think that blogs were for narcissistic teenagers who believed that their every thought was important enough to be written down. And even though I constantly make fun of myself for "blahhhhging" it's been an amazing journey. Along the way I've gotten closer to distant loved ones, made some good friends and created a truly unique memory catcher that my girls can someday look back on and get a sense of what life was like way back when.
Each day goes by so quickly, tomorrow melts into yesterday and soon my children will be grown. This blog has become my memory. Athena is almost a teenager - she's not quite three and a half - but these next ten years will go by quickly. And as the years speed by, this blog gives me a moment to pause, slow down, reflect on my family and treasure the special moments. I hope you'll stay on this journey with me...for another year at least!

I know what you mean about time flying. It makes me so happy to know that my blog is freezing little snippets of time that I would surely forget. Here's to another year! :)
