Do you ever go back?

Do you ever go back and read through your old blog posts? I do, and I love doing it. It reminds you of all the fun times,sad times, hard times and good times. As I look back and re-read some of my old posts, I see a growth in my own self spiritually. I think this is the wonderful thing about blogging. You can go back and remember things that your mind forgets. You can look back and say, " that was hard, but I remember how God worked things out" and of course there are the posts that you just want to forget LOL.
Some of my favorite posts are the ones that I've talked about my children. Abigail is growing up so fast and I like reading about the silly things she said when she was three! Just the other day I asked Abby if you wanted a hot dog and she said "yes mommy but please don't put that sour crap on there" LOL what she meant was Sour Krout!!! I laughed so hard and had her repeat what she said! But it's moments like that that you easily forget.
I was looking back at a point in my life when I was struggling to get pregnant and now I have this beautiful, happy little boy that is almost one year of age!
I loved reading all the milestones that took place during that pregnancy. And now that I'm pregnant with our third child I can go back and compare how things were then to how things are now!
I love reading those bad posts and thinking in my heart "Praise God" He has never ever forsaken me. Even when I was a rotten teenager, He never gave up on me. "Praise God" that those particular trials and burdens are done with!
Then there are those posts that have a "goal" in mind, and you think... "oh yah, what happened to that goal? I never did get there" and those convictions or those desires return and you end up being even more determined to stay focus on obtaining that long lost goal!
Yes, blogging is a wonderful thing. Looking back and remembering is a wonderful thing. Being reminded that God is always in control? That's the best thing this blogging thing has to offer!
