Opening the door

So here I am, blogging. Something I never thought I would do and have if I am honest, which seems like a good place to start this off, kind of laughed at people for doing. Why would anyone want to put themselves out there for the world to see? Then I became a mom. A mom living in a different country than where I grew up. In a country where all my points of references where different than the people around me. I felt lost so I started scouring the internet for information and I found it. In blogs. The same blogs I had laughed at where now my main source of information. The places I would go to to be reassured that my daughter wasn't the only one who refused to potty train at the age of two, that the diaper bag I had been eyeing wasn't worth the money and that I was not alone in feeling like my whole world had changed while I wasn't paying attention. So after some thought I decided to crack the door open, a small tiny peak, and welcome the world in. This is my life. Come in, (but take off your shoes, I am European after all), have a seat and let's get to know each other.
