Happy bloggy birthday!
I...Found you via Pinterest. Happy bloggy birthday!<br /><br />I can so relate to the comparison game. Sometimes when I start doing it I think "My blog needs to look like that so I can get X number more followers" or "If I do this I will finally get my fan page to X number of likers." <br /><br />It's a hard thing to deal with because we all want to be noticed and liked. I certainly do. I've been blogging for close to three years now with at least four blogs, including my current one! Thankfully, with this blog I'm starting to feel like I am coming into my own as a writer/blogger. Funny how all it took was just making it myname.com instead of the names I came up with for other blogs.<br /><br />I wish you the best of luck in all your blog endeavors! It's a lot of hard work as you know but oh so worth it.Kimhttp://www.kimulmanis.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-20492455591691108962013-01-03T14:31:49.331-05:002013-01-03T14:31:49.331-05:00Thanks for posting this lovely message about blogg...Thanks for posting this lovely message about blogging.

I'm doing a little catching up on some of my favorite blogs, and I'm so glad to see this post of yours! <br /><br />I am so proud of you. You have built an excellent blog by doing so many things right. You are a shining example of what a blogger can be. I have a feeling that lots and lots of bloggers feel about you just as I do--that we're grateful to know you in the blogging world and we wish we could spend more time with you in real life! <br /><br />It's funny that we get so hung up on wanting to be perfect, when in reality we don't really want to hang out with someone who is perfect--we'd end up feeling so bad in comparison! <br /><br />I think your blog is absolutely wonderful, just like its owner. I am so very glad to know you.Richella Parhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04353214472648623583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-37897289829123435082012-02-21T22:26:13.045-05:002012-02-21T22:26:13.045-05:00This is a great post, Amanda!
