And honestly, I like seeing the good stuff you do. :) I know no one is perfect, but by blogging (or journaling), you are helping your family know of the blessings they have. When I look back over my own blog, I feel happy and blessed...probably because I write about the happy, blessed times a lot! There is a blog that totally spoofs the whole idea- seriouslysoblessed.blogspot.com I laughed at it! :)<BR/><BR/>Keep bloggin baby!ShelleyGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03005986667848266048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1621436349480837790.post-45157098283552270342008-10-30T13:21:00.000-04:002008-10-30T13:21:00.000-04:00You girls with your blogs are creating a journal f...You girls with your blogs are creating a journal for the future. If you choose to put in diaper rash or not is not important. If you don't keep track of what the kids do, who will? If you don't tell about your triumphs and failures, who will? I applaud you for it Laurene.

I love reading your blog and seeing what you think and are doing. I don't feel you are self-absorbed. I feel like it is an outlet for you especially because you home school all day. I like how honest you are....you don't paint an inflated picture. I look fowars to reading people posts...they make me laugh and cry and think. I know people waste aloto fo time doing it.....I don't spend too much time on it but I don't think it is a wast of time either. So many ideas get shared....and recipes.<BR/>Don't let that article discourage you.....keep blogging. I am going crazy watching Obama on his paid half hour special...and blogging so I can stay calm. Good Luck.

I don't think I want to use this as a forum to thrash anyone as that is never my intent in the real world.<BR/><BR/>I want my kids to be able to go back and see what their Mom was like and my somewhat split personality. To see that I too struggled with lifes everyday challenges as well as found the joy in spilled milk.<BR/><BR/>Keep blogging Cristy, I love reading about your family and seeing them grow.Laurene Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01234887838890081172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1621436349480837790.post-5476183538592901802008-10-29T00:36:00.000-04:002008-10-29T00:36:00.000-04:00Funny you bring this up. I was thinking about this...Funny you bring this up. I was thinking about this a couple weeks ago. Sometimes when I am posting to my own blog I wonder if I am just bragging about how cute my kids are (well, I think they are)Like, "hey look at me and the great stuff I do." I mean I don't really want to blog about the diaper rash Corbin has and how his teething has been getting really "old" if you know what I mean. how i am trying to curb the attitude that my 6 yr old has had from day 1. Or the fight I am in with my husband on a particular day. That is my reality though. Hmmmm....<BR/><BR/> I want to look "good". I think that we all want to put our best foot forward and YES I do think that blogging is a bit narcissistic. <BR/> <BR/>I do agree with your point though, that it has opened up communication that as a family we needed to stay in touch. Technology is a good and bad thing at times. <BR/>Hmmmm.....Cristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09156494122279502337noreply@blogger.com
