A year ago today I published my first blog post. Blogging is something I had thought about for a while, but had hesitated partly from not being sure how it would be received and partly because of my over analytical nature that prevented me from doing a lot of things I was thinking about.

When I deciding to take a pause with work last year, I figured why not. It helped to think about it in terms of something I was just doing for myself; if no one read it, it was OK. At a minimum I’d get to practice my writing and see where that led me.

I haven’t always been as consistent as I’ve liked with my posts, but I have enjoyed it. I’ve liked receiving comments from you whether via the blog or in conversation. It’s been nice to in a way reconnect with people who have played important roles in my life even if we don’t remain close today.

Over the last few months, the blog has been more focused on this path to motherhood that I’m on. I don’t intend for it to only be focused on this and do hope to be able to touch on different subjects that are important in my life or that I want to share. It’s been difficult for me to write about other subjects because most days it feels like I have a one track mind, but I know eventually I’ll expand that horizon again.

Thank you to all of you that have humored me by reading and subscribing to my blog, to those of you who have truly been invested in my journey, and to the support you have all shown.
