Our home was broken into in July, and with that our computer was taken and all of our pictures on it. I was upset about our house, but I was really sad that all of those pictures of my kids at various times of their lives were gone. A few weeks ago, I was on my blog and I was looking at older posts, and there were so many posts of events and favorite pictures of the kids. I love that we have the technology now so that we can do these things to keep a record of our family. Although my blog might not be that interesting or exciting, it's our lives and what we do, and now I have some fun memories and documentation of things in our lives. I might start posting more with pictures and random things, so that I have them, just in case. It doesn't make up for all the pictures lost, but it's a foundation to build upon. I am also so grateful for those people that have found pictures of our family or my kids and have sent them to me, so I can get a collection going again.

Thank goodness for the blogs! We lost our hardrive last year and all of the pictures and videos on it. It was devastating. I can't imagine being robbed of them. :( I'm so sorry.
Are you working to turn your blog into a book now? That's what I did and I love them. I used blurb.com and have been really happy. Good Luck and keep posting!

We love looking at all of our family pictures on the computer. I'm so sorry that happened to you! I'm glad you can find things to be grateful for in the middle of what sounds like a crappy situation.
And just so you now, your blog is interesting AND exciting! I am glad you keep it too because I love to check in now and then and hear about your family.
