As a blog-writer, I am first and foremost an avid blog-reader. There are SO MANY amazing people out there, and reading their stories is a highlight of my day. Seriously, y’all, I’m a step away from some serious hand-holding and “We Are the World” singing. Good stuff.
I have many blogs I read featured here and in the sidebar, but I wanted to share some of the series on these blogs that keep me tuned in.
- Notes from Day Care on Inward Facing Girl. I’m not a Mom. I’m not “in the family way.” I’ve never even met dear Nathaniel, the star of said notes (but I love him). Nathaniel’s lovely mother, Melanie, posts the notes she gets from her son’s day care – chronicling his activities and achievements. It’s such a darling window into the life of a small boy.
- Blog Discussions on Oh, Hello Friend. As a new blogger, these discussions are so fantastic. I love that an accomplished blogger would take the time to “get real” and discuss things we are all thinking about – from the serious (how to credit photos) to the light (telling people you are a blogger to people who stare at you with blank, uncomprehending eyes).
- True Story on Yes and Yes. Sarah compiles the most interesting interviews from people who’ve seen ghosts, had breast reductions, have synesthesia, and so on, and lets you get to know the person behind the label. Plus, I follow Sarah on Twitter and she has some amazing stories in the works, believe me.
- Caturday on Simply Stardust. Admittedly, I’m a cat lady. However, I believe Sara’s cats Morn, Pumpkin, and Atlas could charm just about anyone. Bonus points to Pumpkin for looking like my dear Odie.
Each series is different, but they are all so well-done that I tune in each time a new post goes live.

Thank you so much for the shout out, Helena! Notes from Day Care is fun to share. Maybe I should start writing Notes from Night Care for the lovely times that Nathaniel decides that 3:00-5:00 AM is a good time to show me that he knows how to point to his ears and toes when his musical dog tells him to do so. 🙂
