Memory Keeper

I am a memory keeper. And I am tired. I keep up with Facebook, scrapbooking, Flickr, ordering pictures, and unfortunately, not my blog. I've realized that I'm really repeating stuff. I put a picture on Flickr. I write a description. I usually put it on FB too, because I share a lot with family and friends that way. And then, if I think of it, I put it on my blog and write a brief summary about why that picture is special to me. There is probably some fancy way to link them all together, but I'm not that interested in taking the time to learn it! :) And, lastly, I print that picture and scrap it. Well, enough double work. I am a mom to a busy boy and my favorite of these activities is scrapbooking. I love the homemade feel, I love the personalized handwriting (I very rarely type any text) and I love that it's something I enjoy doing with my closest friends. I will keep up Flickr because I do use that as a site to post previews for customers. I will not, however, continue to blog. I'm not a modern girl. I feel like an old-fashioned, snail-mail enjoying, simple housewife who just isn't up for blogging. If I felt like I had a lot to say that was worthy of reading, I may keep it up, I just think I'm going to save those memories and thoughts for Gabe's books.

I have really enjoyed blogging as a way to express myself and share my thoughts, but at the same time, I kinda just like reading other people's blogs! I don't really update mine that much! So, farewell from GabesMom/WishIMightPhotography! If I decide to pursue photography more seriously in the future, WIM may make a blogging reappearance, but maybe not. Thank you to everyone that's read the blog and thought I had anything interesting to say. If you'd like to keep up with us, friend me on Facebook - I'd love to keep in touch!
