I can't help but wonder.........

..........if I'm crazy for starting this blog. I already have another blog which documents my experiences as a Montessori preschool teacher. On that blog I have also included many of the things I do with my children at home. I have found through writing my other blog that I really enjoy both the writing and the feedback from readers. I have drawn such inspiration from reading the blogs of other moms and teachers around the world who are doing their best to enrich the lives of those around them. I have never been good at keeping a journal, but for some reason having an "audience" has made me a very consistent blog writer. I have posted every day with few exceptions since starting my blogging experiences in May 2008. My intention for this blog is to write more about my thoughts and reflections on motherhood as well as documenting the experiences I create for my children in their early childhood years. Additionally, I hope to use this as a place where I can strive to become a better Christian. Creating a blog with that as a main purpose will require me to think harder about my daily actions and words. I constantly disappoint myself by not living up to being the person I know God intended me to be. Yet I am humbled on a daily basis with the knowledge that my Creator loves me anyway. This will not be a place where I beat myself up for the things I don't do or the things I do that I shouldn't have. That type of thinking should remain private. Instead, I hope that my focus here will be on becoming a better wife, mother and member of the human family. All that takes practice, after all! Well..........I'm going to go ahead and post this, my first post on my virgin blog. It is very late, nearly tomorrow, and I don't know how much sense this makes. But at least it's a start...........
