Dear Mr. Blog

November 9, 2018 Lana

Dear Mr. Blog,

I know you might not remember me.  My name is Lana (like banana.)  I am older than I feel.

I have another child than your namesake but due to all the old posts, I choose to keep your name.  Don’t worry, I asked my kids and they said I could just add the byline to the name:  iLoveMy5Kids.com – “Just not telling you which 5.”  They have a sick crazy sense of humor.  Thus they are all mine and get their humor from their Dad, who I am madly in love with after 21 years of marriage.

I have no reason to blog:  I am human.  I make mistakes.  I love to thrift shop.  I like pretty things.  I love my kids.  I homeschool, with 3 of them taking college classes.  I love to read cookbooks and watch Hallmark movies.  I detest clutter.  I love doing laundry.  I am just like most people except the laundry part.  But, writing makes me sane but don’t grade my grammar – it is called “LANAguage” for a reason.  And I love to be sane so I think I will continue to try to blog. Yet, somedays, it might just be a photo or two.  Today it is just one.

That is why I like you Mr. Blog – there are NO rules.  I do well with no rules.  It reminds me of grace.  AND everyone needs a little bit of grace.  Okay, a WHOLE lot of GRACE like a googol, a number equal to 10 to the 100th power or even more.

So I am back.  With no promises.

We will see where this leads the both of us.

With much love,

lana (like banana)

P.S.  This is Thankful Month and my next post will be 10 ways to show gratefulness.  Maybe. It could just be 5 ways.  Okay, it could just be 1 way.  Man, I love the no rules of blogging.
