Blog issues and some thoughts....

I have been thinking about retiring my blog for awhile now....I love sharing my family and thoughts with others. I especially hope and pray that I have been able to encourage some and being in the adoption world now for 26 yrs I love to help other families and especially children find each other or be encouraged thru our experiences...However I am thinking and praying about what I want to do now with it all. I use it as a tool for those family members and loved ones who live away from us to stay connected too so I am not sure if or how I would change things....I know we are a unique family built thru our obedience to the Lord's will and I am not sure what is next for the "blog".

I have also had some issues with the blog and being able to design and post at times. I am not to computer sauvy and it has been very frustrating for me trying to figure it out. I can't post any of my followers, widgets or extras...only the posts I write and sometimes even adding a picture has been difficult. This is just to let you know what is going on....

Nothing at all to do with our 3 new ones....Life could not be any sweeter or more precious than it is now living it thru their eyes ...Easy, easy transition into our family for all 3.

Noooo don't go away! I LOVE reading your blog! :) Your stories and photos are just fine just the way they are - who needs widgets anyhow??

Ditto what Autumn said! I love getting a peek into your lives...I'll miss you if you stop sharing...but understand what you mean...I find it frustrating too.

I personally would miss your blog, so please don't quit! :)
I offered in the past to help design a blog for you and the offer still stands! That being said, I have had my frustrations with blogger as of late too and finally made the jump to wordpress. I'd be happy to chat with you off-line about it if you're interested, but please keep blogging!

Hello my friend,
Thrilled that the 3 little ones have had an easy blessed transition! Looking forward to meeting them and visiting with everyone again! I'd be sad to not read about the happenings in your family but understand that seasons change. Blessings to you all!
Love in Christ, Mary B.

Ohh I really love reading your blog! I understand the frustrations though. Maybe try wordpress or another blogging venue?

I love reading your blog as well. You are a "Mom" of many in that you encourage so many of us, that you have not even met, outside of the internet. This is such a tool God is using for so many of us. To see such a grace in your life.

Will miss you if you go...for sure!

I hope that you don't stop I read your blog everyday, as a college student at liberty university and working full time this is a big feet so that tells you how much I love it. I think your blog looks great. My husband and myself both are inspired by you. When we found out be could not have children our despair was great(we wanted ten children). I found your blog and it inspired us to adopt older children.

I don't see how you have time to do it, but I LOVE reading your blog and seeing your mega family in action. Your family is such a blessing. :)

Your blog has been such an encouragement to me. Thank you for sharing your life with us. If you decide you need to stop, please know that you will be greatly missed. I still hope someday to meet you and your beautiful family in person. In the meantime, thank you for letting me get to know you this way and I really really hope you continue the blog!
