Funny Farm

As I'm setting up my first blog today, the movie "Funny Farm", with Chevy Chase comes to mind. Particularly the scene where he finds out his wife not only wrote a book, but has been given an offer to have it published! Well, my husband loves to write and he has been published in many local newspapers. Plus, he loves to take photographs and has even one contests from many of them. Then there's me... I love reading what he writes, sometimes I even give him ideas, and sometimes I have so much inside my head that I want to write too!

So, here I am. I am challenging myself to express my hidden thoughts and ideas to paper (or computer screen)! My husband, Brad, is my inspiration. What will I write about? Oh, I don't know, maybe a book I'm reading, or something my two boys did today, or my view about family... maybe a poem, maybe I'll make something up. Whatever it is, I'm going to have fun doing it and I know my husband will be my main advocate and supporter! He'll be surprised by this, but proud too. It may encourage him to start his own blog and write down the stories he makes up with our boys before they get older and the stories soon forgotten.
