When I first desided to start a blog, I shared the idea with my family. The general concensous was, "Uhggg not you too!". My son jokingly told me that he would disown me (I hope he was joking 15 year olds can be hard to read). My husband gave me a look like I was crazy and my mother gave me that patronizing look that she does when she knows that my mind is made up and no words in the world can stop me from what I've decided to do (or at least attempt).
The idea for starting this blog came from my BFF Ruhammie who has quite a cute little blog. I looked hers up and started clicking on links and now I am kind of addicted to a couple err or should a say a few different blogs. The one that made me decide that I would start a blog is The Toy Society. I love the idea of such a selfless act! If you are not familiar with them, the idea is to make or craft a toy and leave it for a child to find and love. To me, this is one of the most amazing ideas; doing something without any motivation of recognision in the hopes of brightening someone's day. As I clicked on more sights, I found others that had the goal of adding to the world in a selfless way (i.e. Craft Hope). I have been searching for years to find a cause that I can put my efforts into that does not involve just simply donating cash. So, inorder to beable to contribute in a small way to help people, I have decided to shrug off the nay saying peanut gallery and add my small voice in this big world
