10,000 HITS

Wow, we've had over 10,000 hits on our blog. It never ceases to amaze me that people would be so interested in our very common lives. I would understand if we were adopting a child or dealing with an illness, but we have just been blessed with a very ordinary existence, which is just fine with me! I am thankful for all of you who check in with us and love us on a daily basis.

In honor of reaching 10,000 hits I think it's time for some of our "blog lukers" to "delurk." I know that there are lots of people who read this blog who have never left a comment and that I have no idea who they are. That's just how the blogging world works. There are several blogs that I read that I don't know the people and sometimes I read their blog for a month or so (that's called lurking) without leaving a comment. Eventually I do let them know that I'm there because I know that I like it when people leave me comments, so I try to do the same.

So if you've been lurking for awhile - leave a comment. I would love to meet you! Even if I don't know you, I'm happy you're here and I would love to hear from you! I know that my blog is linked to other people's blogs, so if you found me through them let me know about it.

Now I'll just wait and see if anyone new actually leaves a comment! I hope so!

I'm not a lurker, but just wanted to let you know that I love reading your blog and am so thankful you encouraged me to start one. Our lives are so similar in many ways that I can so easily related and seek and encouragement from checking on you and your great family. God has given you incredible strength and wisdom as you've handled the past year! Great is your reward in heaven. Thanks for your friendship!

Judy, I read your blog several times a week. It's as if we talk on the phone all the time. I love hearing about all the family activities. Reading about Ryan's baseball comeback was so cool. I watched him pitch hundreds of games when he was growing up. Thanks for the pics in the mail. Now Christian and McKenna are on the frig. Love you! Aunt Sue

I am Kim. I love to read your blog. I have known Ryan since we were little kids. He was in my wedding in 1999. I found your blog through Olivia Chattertons blog. I enjoy getting great ideas from you. We have three kids that keep me busy. I am amazed at how you manage to watch all the kids and go on fun outings with all of them. You are very brave! I would love to hear back from you. Tell Ryan he has a beautiful family.
