The Top 10 Reasons to Start a Personal Blog

In the past few weeks, I've had several people tell me that they've thought about blogging but haven't taken the leap for one reason or another.  For what it's worth, here is my Top 10 list of reasons to start a personal blog . . .

#10--To have one place in your life where the typing is neat, with all the i's dotted and t's crossed, when everywhere else in your life is covered in crayon and Sharpie.

#9--To remind yourself that you actually can put together a coherent thought every once-in-a-while.

#8--To see your child's eyes light up when he spots a picture of himself "on the Internet."

#7--To "brag on" your children. (I love this expression.)

#6--To brag on your husband.

#5--To have a place for all those pictures of your adorable baby :)

#4--To share your knowledge and experience with others who might benefit from them.

#3--To share your deeply held beliefs with others who might benefit from them.

#2--To record your memories, so you can look back on the highlights, as well as the little moments, in your life.

And for all the Zagnuts . . . The #1 reason to start a personal blog . . .

So you can post a photo of your baby sound asleep in his first Halloween costume!
