Four months ago when I started my fledgling of a blog, I would have never imagined what was in my future: meeting people from around the world, giving online French lessons, and...
{I have to preface my announcement with a sidenote:}
When I decided to quit my job as a highschool English and French teacher in order to stay home with our new arrival, I remember feeling quite anxious about our financial situation-two incomes becoming one income-yikes! Of course, ironically, regular people like you and me began to realize the declining economy about two months after I quit my job... go figure! In any case, prosperous or penniless, I desire to stay home with our baby girl.
I NEVER imagined my blog amounting to anything or becoming a success. Well, success is relative after all. I never would have thought that 159 people would have wanted to follow my blog... I would have been thrilled to have 50! I underestimated the blog world and how it would affect me; it's connected me to a huge circle of creative, talented, intellectual people; it's given me a new confidence in my own style; and it's made me use a part of my brain that I didn't know existed---web/blog design. Yeah, who knew!? (My former students would be absolutely shocked!)
