Other times, I have nothing worth writing about but the kids are sleeping and I have time to write! <br /><br />"Self reflection is a bonus, not an end in itself."

I have so many lovely, beautiful journals with one or two entries (maybe three!) that are then left abandoned it doesn't bear thinking about.<br /><br />I turned to blogging because it was something I could do fairly quickly (I'm a fast typist), and could share with my family. I wanted to create an online scrapbook of sorts and think I have done so for the most part. <br /><br />But, yes, you are absolutely right, the moments to write about are those moments in which you have no time to write because you are too busy living them. That's what memories are for. :o)Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09317328366288947798noreply@blogger.com
