I’m feeling guilty.

I’m feeling SO guilty. I haven’t been visiting as many blogs as I used to. My blog has grown very fast, and I’m finding it so hard to visit everyone that comments. I know I shouldn’t be feeling guilty.. but, I can’t help it. I want SO bad to be able to visit everyone.

I have no idea how some people do it. Like the amazing Ashley Sisk. I see her leaving meaningful comments all over the place. I know she really reads the whole blog post.

I know I have a busy little crazy baby… but, I feel like I should be able to visit more blogs! I am easily distracted by pretty photos or interesting links…

ANYway. I just wanted to let you all know that even if I’m not commenting at the moment, I’m trying to read as many of your blogs as I can. Because, I really do enjoy visiting and reading about all of you!

    I have ebbs and flows. Sometimes I can make it around to everyone…sometimes not so much. I know I'll hook back up sonner or later so I try not to stress too much (I still do too though)I love Rauri's shirt! So cute!!

    Don't fret. I don't even have a child and sometimes I am just too tired to enter another word verfication.

    Ahh, I wouldn't sweat it. We know how busy life is. If it weren't for the fact that I have nothing to do at my job for 6 hours a day, I wouldn't be commenting much either. We love you anyway!

    Are you kidding me? I'm faced with the same problem! We've both experienced tremendous blog growth the past few months and I'm losing track. I try to start with those bloggers who have taken the time to visit me, but I have a hard time reading much beyond that point. Work has picked up and I feel pulled in a gazillion directions. But, I LOVE doing it… I love photography, I love blogging, and I love this community – I am committed! Have a great week girl.

    I would hope that people understand! I do. There shouldn't be all of this constant pressure to "comment" all the time. I try my best, but if I have a busy day/week I don't always get around to it. I just have to hope that my readers know that I appreciate them very much and love reading their blogs. You shouldn't feel guilty…. we all love u!

    I LOVE your blog. It's something I look for everyday on my google reader. I do however have to say I don't comment much because it IS in my google reader. I need to give more love. You do not need to feel guilty, your doing an amazing job and from what I see it seems like you have your hands full at the moment so just take it one day at a time.

    I think the majority of mamas with small children are in the same boat as you. We all do our best and that's all that we can do. I love your blog. πŸ™‚

    I agree. I have a hard time reading others posts as well. I always manage to read yours though! Recently, I've downloaded an app for my iphone that I can read my entire blog role, pictures included. It's really nice. Do i use, no. :/ps, i don't know if you have one already, but you need to get yourself a nifty fifty for your new camera. you'll love it! annnnnnd, i WILL make Ruari a dress, just not for THIS summer. The flood derailed those plans. But, expect a pretty hippy 18 mo. size dress for NEXT summer! Dresses are more appreciated at that age anyways. πŸ˜€ And, i'm getting a different kind of thread, so it'll stand the toddler test. {sewing babble, i know}
