Blogs

I was looking at my list of blogs today and I had a thought I thought I would share. I love reading the stories and experiences people share and one today in particular got me thinking I wonder if I would ever hear that story if they didn't blog about it. It's such a blessing to my life. I have felt prompted to call friends and family after reading between the lines on their blog posts. I love hearing about people's happiness and triumphs and on the other hand feeling humbled as they blog about there fears, trials and disappointments. I love being able to see pictures of family and friends who are far away and hearing what they are up to. It has truly been a blessing to pull up a blog and see the faces that make me smile, particularly on hard days or getting a comment from someone that really makes me laugh. This is my life story even if it is random. Just like our thoughts and the things we are grateful for one day to the next. Today I am grateful for blogging and the wonderful Internet that keeps me seconds away from Utah and Wyoming and all the things and people I love. Miss you so much Utah and Wyoming!!!
