At Last! At Last! The Research Years is going LIVE! And I figured what better time to do it than during the biggest mom blogging party on the planet- The Ultimate Blog Party?! I would like to equally welcome those from the Blog Party and all my wonderful readers from Mama Kenz Studio (and my other blogs)!
So, what is The Research Years all about? Well, I'm glad you asked! The Research Years is all about leaving a legacy for my kids and meeting them and their spouses in the future, where I am at now. It is about being honest with them- reminding them what life was really like when they were young so that they and their spouses don't suffer from any unrealistic delusions or expectations. It is about sharing with them what I learn as I go, so that some day when they are 26, or 30, or 45, they can look back and see what I was writing to them when I was that age. I plan on turning this blog into a series of books that I can present to them at different, relevant points in their lives (ya know the big ones- leaving for college, getting married, having babies, etc...).
I plan to cover all of the following on The Research Years:
- day-to-day life
- my own trials and errors
- recipes
- general homemaking ideas and info
- how the Lord is working in my life
- prayers for them
- thoughts on marriage and raising kids
- family history
- and more!
In addition to the posts that will be directly written to my children and their future spouses, I plan on writing some posts just specifically for my readers. These posts will pretty much center around leaving a legacy and building a memory inheritance for our kids. I will post about a wide variety of ideas on how you can prepare for what you want to share with and pass on to your children in the future- everything from hope chests to homemaking journals and beyond! Eventually I may even end up hitting on some genealogy topics as well.
I am so glad you took the time to stop by and check out this new blogging venture! I am incredibly excited about it and can't wait to see where it will go! My dearest hope and prayer is that the Lord will use this new venue to bless not only my children and myself, but all of you as well! I greatly appreciate your support and would love to hear from each and every one of you!
Make sure you keep coming throughout the next week for lots of new posts and legacy leaving ideas! Also, don't forget to stop by Mama Kenz Studio (my main blog) for lots of book reviews and a giveaway this week!
PS- Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I have a brand spankin' new Facebook fan page as well (make sure you check out the discussions section), lots of ways for you to subscribe, and you can also follow me on Twitter (Chic_Mama)! Also, if I get enough interest, I will probably start a Blog Frog community as well!
