This blog is nearing it's 2 year anniversary. That's still really hard to believe, and is a huge success for me. Normally I get bored with things easily, but for some reason blogging has stuck.
I was talking to Michael this morning about how, once again, I have failed to be consistent with working out. Like so many other areas of my life, this just doesn't come easy to me. Then I started spiraling down into the negative about how I am so inconsistent with most everything I want in my life. Then I remembered that I've kept this blog for almost two years, with no intentions of stopping soon.
All of this got me to thinking...why do I blog? why is this little space so important to me?
I'm sure there are tons of answers to those questions. When I first started, it was to promote our business and share inspiration and projects. Since then, it has become so much more. To make this a little easier on me I decided to make a list :)

*Blogging is much like scrapbooking to me. I love having this to remember all of the fun times we've had together. I hope that one day when Anne grows up she'll enjoy looking back on her childhood through these posts.
*It's given me the opportunity to learn so much! I would have never cared about CSS or coding had I not started blogging.
*Because of number 2, Michael and I have had lots more in common. Him being the computer genius in the house, I never felt the need to learn these things. He's now my go to guy when I have questions about coding and stuff.
*I've had the opportunity to get to "know" so many people online. I love the blogging community. For the most part, people are really supportive of each other and seem to want others to succeed.
*Through blogging and reading blogs, I've figured out who I am a little more and become more confident in that person. For example, the thought of taking pictures and doing an outfit post scared me to death a year ago. Now it's really fun...I guess I am just trying not to take myself so seriously :)
Do you blog? What are some things that you love about it?
