Why start blogging?

I always love reading the blogs of other people. Some are to catch up on friends near and far, others are for personal amusement, i.e. Peopleofwalmart.com. Some are so wonderful that they have even made it into my daily routine. But I never thought my life was interesting enough to blog about. I don't take amazing photos, bake exquisite cakes, make beautiful stationary, or have big philosophical insights, like some of my friends do. I spend my time in a lab with tubes or being slain by knights and chasing princesses before putting them to bed for their parents. So why start this blogging thing? Well, I realized that in my daily life there are moments where God shows up, where normal doesn't always happens, and where those around me say or do things that knock me off my feet. So that's why I started. To share with those near and far, these ordinary miracles of life and nuggets of goodness. To give a glimpse into a life that is messy and complicated, but at the same time full of love and laughter ripping at the seams. So I hope you find these little musings a glimpse into the craziness that continually shape the path I am on!
