What to blog about?

It seems the thing to do these days is to write a blog. So, I set up this page, but now I am at a loss of what to write.
Should I write about homeschooling? There are already a jillion homeschooling blogs.
Should I write about my family? It seems that might be hard to do and still preserve their privacy.
What is there that is unique about my life?
Hmmm...well maybe I should just start typing away about the reality of the life of a real homeschooling mom with 8 adopted children all at various ages and stages of life.
Sometimes life is idyllic, but a lot more of the time it is tough. Sometimes it is hilariously funny, and other times I just want to tear my hair out.
So,, here we go. Come along for the ride. I am not exactly sure where we will be going, but I know it will be interesting.

  2. Good evening Rowdy Creek. Hope all is well with the Newman Family. I was thinking, that you could write about how you helped all of us young Ladies while we were pregnant. After all, it was both You and Syd (Stan) LOL whom I based my choice for Jacob's Parents.

  3. Kathleen---thanks so much for inviing me to read your blog. It was such an honor to be even a small part of helping your family to grow. I credit you with expanding my mind about both home schooling and large families! I often sing your praises, and tell stories about the matching outfits you made everyone for finalization days!

    I look forward to reading the stories you will share, and the real life wisdom, humor and love that will no doubt flow from them.

    God bless your blog with free flowing ideas on your part---and many readers!
    Blessings,
    Carol (Demuth)
