Why do I Blog?

Why do I keep a Blog?
Is it to get the applause of someone else commenting on my post or is it a place to share my thoughts?  I have been thinking a lot about that lately and I have decided this blogspot is going to be a place where I can record the things that are important to me.   Hopefully one day in the near future my children and Grandchildren can look back on it and remember me for the moments I have captured here. 
So from now on I will address my blog as if to my beautiful children and adorable Grandchildren.

I am reminded of the song by Nicole Nordiman "Legacy".

I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me

And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
You could take my picture and hang it in a gallery
Of all who's who and so-n-so's that used to be the best
At such'n'such ... it wouldn't matter much

I won't lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights
We all need an 'Atta boy' or 'Atta girl'
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world

I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love? Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace who
blessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy

I don't have to look too far or too long awhile
To make a lengthly list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon enough destroy

Not well traveled, not well read, not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead, "Well Done" good and faithful one...
