It's hard to believe I have been blogging for one year today. I remember how nervous and excited I was when I first hit publish. Would anyone read it? Would people hate what I was writing? Would I decide I hated it?
Creating a facebook page for my blog was the same. I wondered if I would get any likes at all or would people not be interested in what a Mummy and a Minister's wife had to say. I remember on my first day, I had hit 20 likes and I was super exited. Then, amazingly, Jen from Lovely Living shared my page with everyone on her facebook page and suddenly I had over 50 likes and by the end of the week I had over 100. I am still very thankful to her and the many other lovely bloggers who have supported me this past year.
I am also thankful to all my readers who have read, commented, shared and liked my posts. It has been a great year and I have loved sharing this journey with each of you.
I have enjoyed treating my blog as a hobby and have mainly not stressed about stats ( i.e. how many people are reading / liking etc.). There have been times and will still be times when I wish I was more successful, a bigger blogger, but I am choosing to measure my success on the lovely emails and verbal comments I get from people who have been touched by my posts. Even if just one person is helped, encouraged or cheered up by what I write then it is all worth it.
As a way of finishing I wanted to share the links of my top 10 posts of the year and a collage of some of my post's photos. Please enjoy and check out any of the posts you may have missed.
