Blogging

(this picture is from Moopy and Me)

This was the very first blog I ever came across. One day I was searching for some funky children's bedlinen when I found this link to Carly's blog. Not only did I discover the delights of Sprout, but also by going from link to link, I discovered other people out there just like me.

At the time we had just moved to a new area. We lived in a very crappy house, where I spent all of my sleep deprived time with a new baby and a 2 year old. Speaking goo gaa all day long and falling asleep an hour after my husband got home, led to a pretty isolated existence. These blogs were like beacon of hope to me at that time.


(just look at Fiona's gorgeous monkey's)

I have been blogging myself, for just 2 months now. Still quite the amateur, wishing I had a better camera and not having a clue about some of the jargon that is being thrown about. Putting yourself out there is scary, what will people think? how will I be perceived? But if I could just inspire one person out in the big wide world, just like I have been inspired time and time again in so many different ways. Well, it would all be worth the risk.

The people I have put onto my blog roll are some of the first blogs I ever discovered and have stayed close to my heart. There are so many, many, amazing people out there sharing there stories, talents and wisdom. I am discovering more with each day.

I thank-you all for sharing a piece of yourselves with the world, and making anything seem possible.
