The start of it all


When I was a little girl, I visited my Great Aunt Bea in Melbourne Beach, FL. She housed my cousins & I in a guest apartment behind her house. I felt so grown up in that space. While staying there I happened upon a bookshelf full of my Aunt's journals. She had written every day (or real darn close) for most of her lifetime. Her story was housed there on those shelves, in neatly bound lined pages. For many years I have wished to be as organised as her so that I could find time in my life to write everyday... writing is the soul's best medicine by the way. I have many full journals, but I also have writing here & there in journals. Maybe this will give me my spot to have a voice.

The thing that has led me finally try online blogging is a friend who posted a link to The December Photo Project tonight. I am inspired and want to try it... please excuse me for a moment as I travel around the house to find the perfect something to photograph.

Awww...yes! There it is! Tonight my daughter & I played w/ a "new" (to us) website, www.spellingcity.com. It is a great place for spelling practice. She worked on her 18 spelling words & only missed one! :) When I got to her door tonight I found this note on the white board she had placed just outside her door. Can you guess which one word she had missed?
