The other day I read an article on Mormon Blogs, it was written by a woman who claims to be an atheist, a feminist and someone who is addicted to Mormon Blogs. She sites why she loves to read them and she wonders if their lives are as perfect as they seem. I wonder why some who claims to not believe in God, who thinks women need to work to feel useful and doesn't want kids would be so driven to peak into the lives of these families. I wonder if deep down she is seeking for something more in life than herself.
I myself must admit I read NieNie's blog every day before I get dressed, eat breakfast or send my kids out the door to school. I look forward to her positive outlook on life, when life isn't very kind to her right now. I appreciate her quirky style (okay, quirky to me), her love for photography, I love the way she loves her family, her quickness to point out her own faults and I love the way she loves the Lord.
I have a few things in common with NieNie; I have kids, I am Mormon and I know what I do at home is important. I find that these things fill my life with much joy and laughter. I could post on my blog stressful situations or rough days with the kids, but who wants to be invited to my pity party. I hope those who stop by to see what we are doing enjoy seeing my family grow and change and get a glimpse of who we are and what we love.
I hope that the woman who wrote the article I read finds the joy and happiness her soul is searching for and will embrace it when it comes. I also hope she realizes that most of the Mormon Mommy Bloggers do have bad days, but that they choose to not to share those.
I am sure glad I came upon this article, because it makes me want to blog more on what is happening in our daily lives....so I guess I should say I am sorry right know....you may soon learn more about us than you ever wanted too!
