Blogs

They are my newest hobby.  I love trolling around and reading them.  I find them fascinating.  It’s like reading a book; sometimes the book is marginal other times it’s a real page turner.  I especially love reading about other women and their journey to motherhood.  Reading about the highs and lows helps prepare me for my own journey.  As someone who is just starting on the path to being a single mom, I only have my imagination to go on when it comes to appreciating what life will be like.  There are days when I probably over idealize the image.  Reading the stories of the women who have gone before me helps keep me grounded and reminds me that it is not an easy path I am choosing.  So to all you bloggers out there I say thank you.  Thank you for sharing your stories and opening up your lives for others to read.  We may not leave comments on your posts but it doesn’t mean we haven’t read your story and have found it intriguing and worthy of reading.  I, for one, look forward to reading how your life unfolds and am grateful that you are willing to share it.

You can find all the blogs I follow on the right side of this page.  I encourage you to check them out.  They are some amazing women! 

Do you have a favorite blog that you would like to share?

I totally agree - when I feel scared, reading everyone's blogs makes me feel like I can do this on my own.

I agree as well! I felt so alone before getting into blogging. As much as my family supports me, I don't think I could have gotten throught my m/c with my blog family. The courage & bravery I read about in these women is so inspiring!

Totally agree. I am completely obsessed with reading SMC, TTC and post-baby blogs. I look forward to opening all new posts when I get home from work. It leave me no time for tv, and I love tv. And I especially enjoy going back through the archives and reading stories from scratch-- like this one!
