Today starts my third year participating in Blogathon. It is one month of blogging every day. I’ve been struggling with blogging more than a few times a week (for about a month or so) and I’m looking forward to the encouragement to write something daily. It helps me think outside the box of what is good and fun for my blog.
As this new month starts (and I’m glad that Blogathon switched to June from May so I have 1 less day to blog — pretty terrible, huh? 😀 ) I’m praying for the next 5 weeks.
- My eldest gets married on July 6
- My youngest daughter’s graduation party is today
- 3 of my children travel to OKC for a week long missions trip to work with children – and we are praying they might be able to minister in Moore
- I fly to RI for my niece’s wedding (very short visit so I’m afraid I won’t be able to see anyone other than family) and to buy a dress for my Hannah’s wedding
- Kevin flies out to NM for a reunion of his high school choir and gets a great time of fellowship with his 2 brothers and his mom
So, I’m kicking off my month of posting with this short informational post. I hope you follow this month of posts. Michelle Rafter has some great theme days planned ahead for us. One skill I’m hoping to learn this month is how to take photos. I’m really quite dreadful but I also know I can no longer depend on my daughter Elizabeth. She’s growing up and I need to learn to point and click!
I’m looking forward to a fun month – even with the busyness of life ahead.

Wow! What a challenge! I don’t think I’ll try to take that one on! Blessings on you as you do!
Thanks, Esther. I know if still be fun, I just don’t want to get stressed.
You’re a busy lady, Kate. Wishing you well with the Blogathon this month. This is my first time there, so I’m looking forward to it – cautiously! All the best. Susan
You can do it, Susan! And the group of folks involved are really great.
What a busy month! I’ve learned the more I practice photography the better I get. So just start clicking and you’ll develop a feel and style for it.
Stephanie, I have a bunch of photos that are left nostrils or completely blank… my skills need LOTS of practice!! But first I need to get a camera that is cheap but not dreadful.
Thanks, Sarah. Yes, 30 posts in a month is hard, it’s funny though, meeting sure there I’d a post every day is even harder. I’d love encouragement!
Kate…So glad that you mentioned this on BAHM…I signed up after seeing your post there, and got started today! Very excited about the challenge. I will pray for you as I prepare my posts this month!
