My Little Women

Well...I have started this blog mainly to hold myself accountable in creating for my daughters an online keepsake, if you will, that records the small but significant moments in our daily life along with observations of their growth and accomplishments throughout the years. I'm thinking that this may also be the easiest way to share pictures and stories with long-distance family members and friends. I bought four very pretty journals after the births of each daughter with the hopes of writing down for each one the stories that will over time create our family story. Needless to say, with all that goes along with having four small children under the age of seven, here I sit with 4 empty journals. Big sigh! Since I spend a considerable amount of time in the evenings skimming through the world of wonderful blogs in search of holy, helpful hints and inspirations for the journey, my husband finally said, "honey, you should start a blog." Voila! I figure this may be the way of my future. I'll have to use those pretty little journals for something else.

It's the little things that happen on a daily basis that are so meaningful, but it's those same little things that we can forget so quickly if we don't write them down. I hope my four "little women" won't mind signing on in years to come to read all of their marmee's memoirs.
