Today my blog turns 2!</div><div><br /></div><div>I was surprised when I realised this morning that today was my blog's birthday, it kind of snuck up on me. I'm struck by how different my life is today to <a href="http://melskimoments.blogspot.com/2010/01/at-last-beginning.html">that day</a> when i nervously switched my blog settings to public. All day I've kept thinking of things that seem so normal now that weren't part of my life then. I'm a stronger, more independent lass these days and that is amazing. Many things remain the same but that is not a bad thing. There's much to be thankful for in the constants and inthe new.</div><div><br /></div><div><div><div>Sometimes I think it's time to stop blogging and try something different. Then I remember that blogging is one of the things that helps me to number my days aright. It reminds me to be thankful in the ups &amp; the downs and in the exciting &amp; the mundane details of daily life.</div><div><div><br /></div><div>Thank you so much for your comments &amp; encouragements.
