		<description>What a wonderful post, Amber.  I think this is my first time visiting here.  And you DO INDEED have a lovely blog.  It seems like a peaceful place :)  I wasn&#039;t quite sure about the whole blogging thing at first -- I actually thought having a recipe blog might help me get my recipes in better order.  But I&#039;ve found I just keep finding more and more great recipes from other people&#039;s blogs, so now I have more in my &quot;to try&quot; pile than ever :)  Oh well.  I agree with you, it seems to be such a supportive community online, and it is really fun to come across people with similar interests, people you&#039;d never get to meet in real life.</description>

		<description>Blogging was/is an important community and artistic impression after my son was born and it became much harder to indulge in my primary art form - dance.  I can&#039;t get a dance studio and team of performers in the middle of the night whenever I want, but I can certainly read and write then!

		<description>Your posts are always great Amber and like others said, I love reading them every day.

Many of your posts make me go &quot;hmmmmmm..... how would I handle that? What do I think about that?&quot; 

The more you share the more I realize we have quite a bit in common (besides the same name for our daughters ;)). I love reading about your thought process, about how you&#039;re crafting your life, what it&#039;s like to live through your children&#039;s eyes.... it&#039;s very similar to what I&#039;m going through or will go through in the next few years.

I only started my personal blog a few months ago and I have been so suprised by the support I&#039;ve gotten. It was a difficult transistion for me to become a stay at home mom - I felt really lonely and blogging has helped me connect with others in the same situation. 

I have the same hestiations - about talking about my dreams wondering if people will laugh at me or think I&#039;m crazy. Hopefully it&#039;s just a blogging newbie feeling. 

See you around online :)

		<description>I was very happy to see your theme this month because I meant to talk specifically about blogging last month for the time management post but my post went it&#039;s own direction.

I&#039;m glad you blog too Amber and I&#039;m glad you get something so positive out of it.

I&#039;ve been blogging off and on in various guises for 5 years (pregnancy blog, news/marketing blog for birth supply business and now?). I&#039;m feeling the most positive about it right now but that&#039;s saying a lot. I think I still need to sort out what the point is. :)

		<description>This post made me laugh out loud several times.  :)  (Needed that!)  

I think I originally started a blog to post pictures of the jewelry I made so that I could keep pictures and thoughts all in one place.  Then the reality of having a tiny baby that never slept for more than 1-2 hours hit..and I let it go.  When I started up a again, I was surprised at what came out - and by the wonderful people that showed up.  Now it is all about dreams.

		<description>You always sound so self confident ... I hope I&#039;ve never written anything thing that didn&#039;t sound positive feedback!  6 1/2 yrs ago I didn&#039;t even know what a blog was.  I discovered the blogging world only about a year and half ago, when we (finally) got a fast(er) internet connection.  I love blogging, and I always look forward to the time in the day when I can sit down at my computer!

		<description>Funny you post this when I was ranting about little blogs on mine!

Yeah...I love blogging for the community it has given me.

social anxiety and so on has made it hard for me to connect especially with moms..so the internet has been a BLESSING for me.

A real gift and I am so happy and wish I had started sooner!
