And so it begins...

Well, here I am...entering the blog world.  Last night, I was fortunate enough to meet up with some of my favorite women over dessert.  Finding ourselves in the midst of mommy-hood, conversation naturally gravitated to one thing - our kids.  The conversation went a little something like this, "Oh, I saw your daughter's pictures on Facebook, she's so cute!"  Soon after, another friend says, "And you, your son is getting so big!"  Then, one of the women is singled out - "You need to get on the pictures.  I haven't seen pictures of your kids in forever."  And then it comes... "Well, I keep everyone updated through our blog."  And one by one, each woman names off the title of their blog.  Then, I receive the stare of death when I confess that my technological fingertips have been lagging by only sending out emails rather than updating a blog (gasp!).  So, here goes...  Call it peer pressure or call it jumping on the bandwagon.  I am going to try my best to keep this thing updated for friends and family.  I hope you enjoy the little updates here and there, and that they serve as a way to keep you more in touch with our precious little blessing, Joshua.  If anything, maybe it will get our grandparents one step farther in their computer tech adventure.  I can hear them now, "First, they ask me to click on this You Tube stuff, and now they want me to subscribe to a blog?!"  I guess we'll see how it goes...
