A Letter to My Readers

Day 27:  A letter to your readers.

This was supposed to post yesterday but I was having too much fun with my little schmuffin to bother with the computer.  I really wanted to make sure I posted it, though, because I think it's important.

Dear Readers,

You have no idea how much you mean to me.  I sincerely mean that.  I started this blog almost two years ago as a way to document my pregnancy.  I had no idea it would turn into my outlet.  I had no idea how many people I would come to know. 

I had two followers for the longest time.  Then somehow I moved up to ten.  Then I started linking up and putting myself out there more and I now have 79 of you wonderful followers.  It may not be much as compared to some of the bigger blogs but I thank every single one of you for following me. 

I appreciate the fact that you want to read what it is I have to write.  I appreciate all of your comments and I reply to each and every single one of you via email.  I appreciate the blog friendships that have developed over time.  I truly enjoy talking to you all.

You really have no idea how much I love your comments and how much I love responding to them.  I love that many of us have so much in common and I hate that we all live so far away from each other because I really feel that I could be friends with so many of you!

I love reading your blogs as well.  Some of you are serious, some of you are funny, some of you are great advice givers, some of you are great recipe sharers, some of you are awesome do-it-yourselfers.  All of you are amazing!

I'll be celebrating my 2 year blogiversary soon and I just can't express how awesome it has been.  I hope to keep my little space here in the blog world for a long time and develop even greater relationships with you all. 

With Love,
Vanessa

  1. Awww - I totally agree. I started my blog for me, but it is the readers that encourage me to keep going and continue this journey that I will hopefully have forever.

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

A Few New Things...

First off, I have 15 followers!  I am so grateful to have more followers.  I can't even tell you how great it makes me feel to know that people want to read my blog.  Through all of the linking up I have been doing, I have 15 followers and I have found a TON of new blogs to read.  I am really enjoying reading them all every day!! In case you don't believe me.......................... I know 15 doesn't seem like a lot but it's a lot to me.  It means the world to me to have people interested in my life.  The second change is that I added a new page.  It's my Summer Bucket List .  I posted this list a little while ago but I know that I will forget about it so I added it as a page.  Now I can actually cross things off as I do them.  I have already crossed one thing off the list and I hope to cross them all off by the end of the Summer!  I guess the end of the Summer would be September 21st so I have until then.  And if I don't get them all crosse
