Why? {Blogtoberfest 5}

I began blogging almost 2.5 years ago......not being very technically minded and also not at all into "social media" the suggestion to start a blog was laughable.

But becasue the suggestion came from my little sister who was living on the other side of the country and then some I gave it a fleeting thought.

How , where do I start, what would I write about, did I have time?????

I was convinced to give it ago as my sister encouraged me to share recipes and general day to day living so that she could still feel apart of our lives  and she could share in some of the gems that she remembers our  mum doing, that I now apparently was doing.......hehehehe  !!!

Well now as of this past weekend my little sister is now living  just 10kms away with her beautiful family and I can see her so much more in real that I don't have the same reason to blog......

but something happened and that is that I love to blog....I think my children love the reading the  blog, I think my hubbie even enjoys this little space (secretly)

It has become a place to record some snippets of our family life, snippets of my creative life and we all enjoy peeking back and seeing all the "stuff " that fills our days....

So even though my sister may not need to check in here all that often now I will keep tapping away and keep recording the ordinary and some times mundane goings on in this little family of ours.

Hey I have also met some neat people that have some cool things going on so that has been fun too.
