Let's Get Started...

This is surely strange for me. I am generally a very private person so starting a blog is a bit out of character for me. But while I'm private,there is so much I want to share with the world. Seems to be quite a contradiction, so maybe I can accomplish both by posting a blog but staying anonymous.  Some people will know who I am, but those are the people who I'd share these things with anyway.

The title...well, there really may not be any glory in my stories, but that's me being humble and modest.  What I really believe is that there is glory in everyone's story.  Choosing a title for my blog was very time comsuming. I had a lot of ideas. I searched a lot of quotes.  I tried to think of songs that mean a lot to me.  Most of them were taken.  I liked this one.  It was catchy and seems easy to remember.  And while I don't think my story is any more glorious or extraordinary from anyone else's...I liked it.

So today I was inspired to start a blog because I wanted to share a story my daughter wrote.  I've wanted to start a blog for a while, but I don't want everyone to know everything about me.  Did I pretty much already say that...

Okay, so here's her story.  In her own words, with her own spellings.  I giggled when I read the first line! Hope you will, too!

So, this is my first blog.  No glory, really...but now I've started.  Maybe there is the glory...something new begun.
