Apology

This blog is supposed to be a simple, unfussy journal of my daughter's first year, what it's like to know her, be her, and live with her. But then I signed up for that silly 'BloMo challenge, the one that requires me to post daily. Can I just say that posting every day on a blog such as this is B-O-R-I-N-G. I've been taking a look at some of the other incredibly accomplished and prolific writers who are also a part of this crazy scheme and reading their work is, comparatively, the proverbial breath of fresh air. They are funny, they are witty, they have lives brimming full of exciting places to go, people to see, and things to do. They are crafty, creative, and imaginative. I feel the need to remind myself, and anyone out there actually reading this tiny, silly blog, that it's whole purpose and intent is as a record for my daughter of what the first part of her life was like. Something I can give her when she's grown that will fill her on some of the snippets and scraps of moments and memories too easily forgotten or discarded. That's all this was ever supposed to be. So forgive me for not being super clever and fall-out-of-your-chair hilarious--one day, maybe, I'll have the time.

On a happier note, here is a photo I took a couple days ago. I can't believe that she's already this big!
