I'm just preparing myself
Monday, November 15, 2010
I'm beginning to feel like I'm talking to myself on here. People always tell me that they read my blogs, but no one comments and I haven't had a new follower since day one. I can tell you that one reason for that is that most of the blogs I follow are the ones that I cannot yet relate to: the stay-at-home, crafty, money-saving, photographer, mommy blogs. What interest do they have in a girl like me? I'm kind of in limbo right now. I've tried the whole money-saving thing and as I mentioned before, I really stink at balancing. I'm not yet a mom, I actually have to go to work, and try to become a photographer on the side. I love reading the blogs that I read because I have learned a lot and I can honestly say that had it not been for following the blogs that I follow, I would never had started clipping coupons, became interested in photography, or have a strong opinion for breast-feeding (and cloth diapers and baby-wearing!).
Who am I you might ask? A 22-year old that is engaged and planning a wedding for next July. I am still living at home, but mostly buy my own groceries so I attempt to save as much money as I can in the process. I do not have kids, but want a handful of them ASAP and when I do, I will try with all I have to solely breast-feed. I would like to call myself a professional photographer but the truth is that I haven't even found myself or my voice. Kinda funny that I'm reading the blogs that I am, huh? No, I am not trying to become something that I'm not but I don't think you have an idea how badly I want to be at the stage in my life where I can say I am a stay-at-home mom that only breast feeds, uses cloth diapers, and carries my baby in a sling while I am balancing blogging, photography, and loving my husband with my entire heart. I'm just preparing myself. ;)

I love you and I love your blog! I feel like I am writing to myself, too :) The good news is that our lives will be well documented. Keep on writing, keep on doing photogrophy, keep on keepin' on!
