I'm pretty new to having a blog but I love it. I'm pretty certain I'm already addicted, but if not, I'm certainly well on the way.
I have started to 'think in blogs' which I know sounds weird! I see things, or do things, or take pictures, always thinking about how they could fit into a post or make a memory. I take notes on paper, I make notes on my phone and I have drafts of a million posts, some of which will never see the light of day.
Blogging helps my stress and anxiety. I spill my guts and in turn read other posts and it helps.
I feel like I always have someone to talk to. I don't publish posts sometimes or even really know if anyone's read them when I do, I'm just happy to have offloaded, it's great therapy.
I feel like I have something I will be proud to look back on and it's a really nice way to help document my life as a mother and my children's early years.
I may not be the best writer In the world but I love talking (waffling) and really want people, especially other parents to realise that the things they are going through are normal, and to make them feel good too.
Other bloggers are lovely, helpful supportive people who are nice to be around (even if only on a screen so far).
It's all pretty new this blogging business, but right now its pure 100% love.
