I Should Start Writing This Stuff Down


My dad has recommended for years that I combine all of the stories I've collected while teaching and write a book.  While, I'm not ready to take on that venture, I did start to like the idea of blogging about the antics of the five-year-olds I teach.  And while those stories are hilarious (think kid pooping on the floor of the bathroom on the first day of school) I knew those stories could not sustain a blog.  So then I thought about what else encompasses my life, and unfortunately that answer is infertility.  As much as I wish this chapter of my life didn't exist, it does.  It exists with a ferocity that is at times so overwhelming and all consuming that I'm not sure where to go or what to do for help.  I have a feeling I'm not the only one out there, and felt like blogging about this experience would definitely help me, and possibly provide insight for others in a similar situation.  And finally, I'd like to include my  relatively new found photography hobby in this blog.  When I feel like I've taken a great picture or two, I'll post them, easy enough!

Bear with me...I haven't written anything outside of a text message or email in years.  The thought of trying to "write well" is a little daunting.  So I'm bagging that plan and just diving into the purpose behind this whole idea.  I need a release!  For many reasons, I feel like a blog may be right up my alley.  Who knows, this could be a disaster, or it could be like free therapy...
