Blogging...good vs bad

When we started this blog over two years ago we wanted it to be a place where we could share what God is doing in our lives and the steps of faith we had to take in order to follow his will for us. We have had an INCREDIBLE two years to say the least. God continues to bless us and bring us unending joy through our parenting of Marcus. Since we live so far away from family we wanted this blog to be something that allowed our family to be a part of his life and watch him grow up from a distance. Recent events and negative remarks about the blog have however made us rethink things. We never intended for this to a blog where other people could question our motives, question how we spend our time, or even complain about what we do or do not include in our blog posts. That being said, since we are both incredibly technologically challenged and how no idea how to make this blog private, we will be taking a blogging break. I know that sounds funny since it was like 6 months between blog posts, but until we feel that this can be a positive thing again we are choosing not to do it. There are plenty of negative influences in the world and we try to do our best to keep them at bay, our blog has become one of those things that is negative.

  2. You and Cory will continue to be an inspiration to Josh and me. I love how you have blessed us and so many people by your own steps of faith. Thank you for being a witness to Christ's love for all of us. We love you.

  3. Hello Kelly!

    I read many of your posts about adopting your adorable son. My husband and I are in the process of trying to choose an agency. You and your husband seem so similar to us in what little I know of you through your blog that I just had to post. I do hope you receive this post even though you are taking a break. I am about to quit Facebook for the same reason. It is amazing how people who have no clue about adoption feel the need to tell you what you should do! My hubby and I are in NC, just moved from TN. Most our family lives in CA. My brother, sister in law, their kids, and my mom moved to TX about a year ago. I think you are younger than us. We are 38. Be Blessed! I can be emailed at ambercsmith@earthlink.net
