There’s a First Time for Everything

  I have no idea what I am doing, however I have been encouraged by multiple people to start a blog. Writing has always been something I enjoyed, though it never had any direction or place in my life. Who has time to sit and collect their thoughts? Not me. Not to mention the added stress involving what I would even write about! Who needs added stress? Definitely not me! Yet, here I am trying something new for the first time (another thing I do NOT excel at). Fair warning to all you Grammar Nerds out there: I am not great at grammar or punctuation and will make a fair amount of mistakes, so bear with me.

      Speaking of first times, my son is learning to walk. He is utterly terrified of it! He can pull himself up on things but after that he is pretty much lost. He can’t even sit back down from being so afraid of falling. The fear of falling, however, is not stopping him. Anything he can try to stand up next to, he gives it a fair go. I figure if being afraid of falling down is not stopping my 10 month old, why should it stop me? Children are our future. What kind of example am I setting for him if I let my fears of failing stop me from trying? Not a very good one. With this very first blog/post I am changing that. There are many things in this world we should/do fear. Spiders, snakes, clowns, spiders, sharks and more spiders just to name a few. Failing should not be on that list. Here’s to crossing it off mine!
