Taking the Plung

I'm giving blogging a try. I want a scrapbook of life with my two wonderful twin boys. I have been keeping a journal next to my bed and was good about getting down my thoughts on their birth and the first few days. I didn't want to forget the feelings but I was so overwhelmed and out of my head that I knew that if I didn't get them down somehow and soon, they would be gone from my mind too quickly. I hadn't written for a few days (okay weeks!) and I picked up the journal from my windowsill and discovered that the recent rain and an open window had smudged my memories. Luckily they are still readable but it made me quickly decide to take the leap into blogging. A blog may not be tangible but at least it is waterproof. Besides, I can't post cute pictures like this in my journal...
