Calling all Lurkers...

I have been blogging for about 20 months now. It has been slow at times but for the most part I try hard to ramble on about the day to day things that happen in our family. My kiddos give me the biggest part of my material. We live in the same town as both sets of grandparents and a ton of extended family so we are very fortunate in that respect. But because of that this blog isn't just about posting pictures of the kids to keep the family updated. It is about me writing down stuff. Sometimes that stuff is personal and sometimes it is trivial. Sometimes it shows me being vulnerable. I strive hard for it to reflect my faith.

Over the past few months I have found out in a very round about way that I have more than a few family members reading this blog. I love it. It doesn't bother me. (Hello... We're on the INTERNET...DUH!) Check out my list of blogs I read and see if you can find the connections between me (or Cameron) to these people. There are a few that are tricky. There is one that I don't know at all and just love to read.

I read a list of blogs almost daily. Most of them are on my blog roll that you see to the right. BUT there are about 15 more blogs that I have found or come across while reading other people's blogs. I don't know these people and don't comment on them. It is called lurking. When you lurk on other people's blog it is like you don't want them to know you are there. Why? I don't know. But after reviewing my site meter I realized that my blog on average gets 45 hits a day. I only get an average of 2 comments on each post though. hmmmm.... unless my sister and a few others are checking back 15 times each then that shows me I have LURKERS!!! So the point of this post is to call out my lurkers. Leave a comment. Tell me what's up. Just leave a quick hello. I won't care if I don't know you. Promise!! :) I don't expect a comment on every single one of my posts by any means that is just insane BUT once a month to let me know you are still around would be nice. Nothing on my blog is private. I never post anything without people's permission. I try hard to ask for picture permission of other people's kids as well. I say all that because sometimes when you get in a blogging slump it is great to know that there is more than 2 people reading my randomness.

I will be taking my own advice and commenting on all the other blogs I lurk on...

My original plan was to go ahead and write down the names of people who I know read the blog but don't or rarely comment. You can all be thanking Jordan right now for advising me against that.
