Reason for absence

I started writing this blog as a way to express myself through the written word. Stories, reflections, poems and prayers. This is what it was supposed to be but since starting this blog I have realised how influenced I am by so many in the blog world and what began as an enjoyable hobby has become a competitive, pressured burden and I am pretty much over it....

The problem is that when you become a mum, you enter this whole new world of blogging, namely the 'mummy blog' world and suddenly you find yourself 'needing' the latest cool baby stuff and feeling depressed that I feed my child some non-organic, freshly grown produce and I wear trackies when going to the supermarket ( I am totally that mum).

Now I am not saying that all the blogs I love out there are unhelpful. No way. I wish my gardening skills would take off (I am trying) and if I lost a little fat, I could maybe wear some fashoinable attire but the point is, I dont want my life to be consumed with this stuff.

And so, whilst I will continue to peruse all the wonderful blogs out there, mine may be taking a slower pace for a little while as I figure out what it is I want to blog about.

In the meantime, the relationship between my girls is blossoming {I am a mum after all :)}
