Blogiversary

Whoops.  I missed my one-year mark.  September 5, 2011 I posted my first post. Now I can look back at where I have gone.  In a way, this blog has documented my progress in designing.  In fact, just this week I have made a lot of changes to try to improve my blog.  I updated my pages trying to make things easier to get around.  Before, I just directed the links at the top of my page to lists of posts.  Now, I have a little explanation and picture to go with it.  There are still links to posts, but it is more organized.  For example, on my "The Love Letters" page, you can look at all the letters written by grandma and grandpa, only letters by grandpa, only letters by grandma, or a specific letter listed by date.

My next step is to design a background.  My old background is okay, but it is partially someone else's design.  I want to make one completely from scratch.  It's proving to be quite difficult so far. Maybe I'll get it done soon.

Well...I better not spend too much of my Saturday blogging, so I'll end with a few links to my favorite posts. These are the types of posts I re-read when I need a little reminder of what God has already taught me.
