Welcome Readers
As I sit in bed contemplating what my first blog post should be about, I realized that unless I start with some type of introduction it will seem rather random. So before I jump into any kind of topic-related blog entry, I’ll start with a more introductory explanation on why I’ve decided to start blogging and vlogging. Vlogs coming soon!
In no particular order:
1. Passionate about writing
I’ve always enjoyed writing. If you look on my bookshelves you’ll find diaries and journals from various periods throughout my life. I’ve never been one to write stories, but I could write all day on topics that interest me or my thoughts on them. It’s definitely a hobby of mine and as a mom it’s crucial to have and maintain hobbies!
2. Interested in video editing
In junior year of high school I remember writing a paper on where I was going to go to college and what I would study. Believe it or not, I decided that I wanted to go to Full Sail University in Florida and study filmmaking. I probably could have found some interesting careers if I went that route, but in the end I think my career in nursing has served me well. However, since high school it has been an interest of mine to edit videos and with the world of youtube booming, now seems like the best time to do it! Forgive me for my lack of talent in this area, but I do hope to get better as time goes on!
3. Memories
One of the best (and worst) things with the internet is that everything you post can become part of your online memory book. My hope is to have all of our adventures and life’s precious moments collected on one page for not only you to see but for me and my family to enjoy for years to come.
4. Motivation
As much as I talk about how I love to travel, eat healthy, edit videos, blog, etc it can be hard to do. So I’m hoping that this site will help motivate me to continue doing the things I love because in the end it will be worth it!
5. Share my faith
I’ll touch more on this in future blogs and/or vlogs, but my faith has been a huge part of my life and my families life. After being a part of a miracle it’s hard not to share it in almost everything I write. We’re far from perfect, but I hope you’ll get a glimpse of Jesus in the way we live our lives.
I’m sure I could come up with a few more reasons why, but I’ll leave it at this. Thanks for reading!
