My first blog

I have heard of this thing called blogging and I have certainly read my fair share of them. Finding them quite entertaining I decided to try it out myself. This is my very first blog. I used to write letters when I was younger and I would write and write and write and NEVER actually deliver these letters to anyone. I am hoping that blogging will provide me with the same stress relief satisfaction. Not that I am a person that is very stressed. I am just a person that does not like biting my tongue and I found I have done that way too much lately. I think I will mostly write about the joys of motherhood - single motherhood that is - and yes there are joys to that believe it or not. Focusing on the fact that I am a mother and that I have the best son in the world generally relieves my frustrations. Listening to my son say a phrase he has never said before or looking at his smile can change any day into a good day. So to anyone who shall read my blog I say to you this - if you are a parent enjoy your child, take delight in every new thing that they learn. Relish in their smile, allow them to make your day. Even though my son is only almost 2 years old I am certain that even in the sulkiest of teenagers a parent can find something to smile about. As rambling as this post is, take from it this - enjoy your children and treat them well, think of them in ALL decisions that you make for if you do it should make your decisions easy ones to make.
