1st entry.........why blog now?

So, my husband started a silly blog the other day and it got me to thinking. I love to write and have kind of used MySpace and Facebook to blog, or at least to share my random thoughts with whomever chooses to read. I was thinking of a title, and this morning, as I was trying to get back to sleep, this came to me. "The blossoming of BlueDaisyMa". Why this title? Well, my mom always called me her "blue daisy" which was her way of saying I was a bit different than my 7 siblings. So, recently, I started using that as my username on various sites. I added the "ma" part, because that is a huge part of who I am...who I have always wanted to be. Why "the blossoming" part?? That is multi-faceted. Being 7 months pregnant, I am literally blossoming and growing every day!! This year I turn 40 and the past 2 yrs have been a pivotal, sometimes painful, point in my life. I found the love of my life on a little online tv show forum and from there, my life exploded. I came to life and started to, again, blossom!
So here I am, growing a new life as I approach my 40's, nurture the lives I grew in my 20s (my 4 sons), figuring out who I am and what I stand for, all the while blossoming under the love I never thought really existed....until now.
This blog will most likely (at least for the next 3 months) be about the little one pinging around inside me and whatever hormone-driven random thoughts come from this pregnancy. I will also most likely blog about stuff like attachment parenting, baking, homeschooling, and semi-crunchy parenting.
Hope you enjoy, feel free to comment!
