I love Garibay Soup

I started this blog back in November of 2007 for the sole purpose of updating family members on our life away from them. I was reflecting back on how much bigger it has become. What new purposes it serves, and how I've grown from it.

I have had the most amazing privilege of getting to know other bloggers out there, and learning things I never thought I'd learn in bloggity world.

I am making my family's history. I consider this my version of my family's life, and one day my kids, their kids and possibly even their kids' kids will get read about the things I feel, the things I love, the things that anger me, but the main thing is they'll get to know me.

Sometimes I post meaningful things to me that I know my readers don't care about, but when it comes down to it, this blog is for me. It's for my family, and it doesn't matter if I have a million readers or none.... this blog will always remain, and I will always try and keep in perspective the purpose of this blog.

I don't always have joyous things to write about. I'm not hesitant to write about the trials in my life. I like to focus more on positive things, but let's face it.... life isn't always rosy and cheery. I'm happy that I have this blog to turn to and record the things I have failed to write in baby books, that I can talk about the things that frustrate me, the things I've discovered that work for me, and a place to just ramble about whatever my crazy mind has on it.

I'm extremely grateful for so many things in my life, and I find it kindof funny that Garibay Soup is definitely one thing I am grateful for. I love that my life is right here, that I have a record of the things that I have accomplished, the things my children and accomplished and the monuments in our life.

I love Garibay Soup.
