I started this blog a little over two years ago when I decided it was time to leave typepad for something well, free. I started typepad when I became pregnant with Reyna. It was a place where I could journal my pregnancy, keep my out of town family up and current on all the latest and greatest of what was happening over here at Casa de Collins.
There are some days where I would like to vent more on my blog, but I try to keep it fun to read and uplifting. There are some days I would like to yell, scream, cuss and cry, but I don't. Instead, most of the time, I write about what the girls are doing, how they are doing and what is going on in OUR daily lives.
I just had a chance to look back at my archives and would you know, most of it pertained to Reyna, Ruby and family, complete with pictures and milestones. If you are curious, my archives are to the right. Feel free to look back and read. :)
Just to let you know, sometimes this blog will contain other content other than the girls or my good hubby. Do you know why? Because this is my blog. I am the one and only author on this blog therefore, it is solely mine. There are somedays when I need advice from other mama's, want to talk about what I am doing with my friends, post pic's about shoes I am drooling over and so on and so on.
Writing about something other than my children does not classify me as being a bad mama. It makes me human.
I guess if you don't like my topics of choice, move on to something else.

could you email this to MIL? please. i've said it so many times, no one is FORCING you to go to my blog so SHUT UP.
i hope things are ok :)
I'm going to just point people here and say "Yeah, what she said." because amen. We get a spot too.
Way to go Les! Trust me, I so know how you feel & I love reading your blog. Can't wait to continue...
Oh no! Did someone say something to you about the content of YOUR blog? Are you kidding me?
Ditto to what the other's have said! Love reading about your family and your little cutie patooties and all of the other stuff too!
what is going on?!? I can't believe someone would say something about what you choose for a topic?!
I'm with Mary . . . tell me that no one was complaining about the content of YOUR blog?! I have started, stopped, moved, and rethought blogging enough times to know that ultimately the only person you can satisfy with your blogging is yourself - what others take from it is merely a perk. I, for one, will continue to read, regardless of the content.
(And this is exactly why I didn't share the link with my in-laws and was peeved when they found it . . . they want cute kid stories and pictures, and I was to vomit all of my emotions - without their judgement.)
I sometimes want to have 2 seperate blogs. One for the family, to keep it all clean and cutesy and yada yada yada. And then one that I can just be myself at. I know exactly how you feel when it comes to family reading your blog. But for someone to say something?? Seriously?? Get the 'eff' out! You write what you want to write about and how comfortable you want to be on your blog. :)
you go girl! I will keep reading.
Good for you les. What happened, did someone say something to you? Write about whatever YOU feel like!!
Uh oh, what happened? My mom just called me yesterday telling me to post a picture of the kids because she's bored reading the other stuff. I told her to shut up and I'd post what I want to! She doesn't need to read it if it bores her!
Anyway, I'd get sick of reading about my kids everyday, so I assume you would too. Some days you need to vent and this is your place to do it. Everyone else can kiss ass! Good for you!
Someone dissed your boots??? I would hope not. I agree with everyone, it is your blog.
Yowsa, is someone ripping on your blog??? how lame.
I could NOT agree more!!!! Being a mom does not define me or who I am. I am much, much more than just a mom... my life is much, much more than just my kids.... GOOD for you for saying it out loud!!!! Love it... keep talking about boots girl.... it's what I love to read about.... :-)
ahhh this is why I had to make my blog private! It drove me crazy having stupid people say things about my posts. Just keep writing what you want to write! If they want to read it, they will- if not, they won't! :) Hope all is well.
I started my blog when I became pregnant with Jake. There are days that I want to vent but I don't because I know my family reads my blog and I also don't want to bore people. I wanted my blog to be a place that I can express my thoughts but I find myself holding back a lot.
By the way I love your blog.
