So, here I am

     What a terrifying thought -me  writing a blog. I remember, just a few years ago, while we were living overseas in a place where many blogs - even certainly this one I am writing today - are often behind the great firewall, talking with my husband about what exactly blogs were. I believe I proudly announced it was a self-centered thing to do, write a blog. Navel gazing. Who wants to just concentrate on their own lives, chronicle the mundane daily  happenings, or even spend their time simmering great thoughts to bring to light for the world on their own blog? But here I am. I wonder if others think as I do - that writing helps them to think through the important minutiae of their lives. Otherwise it all goes unexamined. I still don't have under my foot the exact reason we want to do it publicly. Really, I would be happy to do this for a year before I begin linking up the other parts of my online life, limited as it is. Here I hope to speak to myself, to my God, maybe someday to my friends. I also hope to have a record here of God's goodness in the life of my family. We'll see.
