about this blog

Why do I love to blog?

It's really quite simple. I've always loved taking photos and documenting things.  I love looking back on it all - even the small stuff.  The small stuff is just as important to me because that's what makes up most of life.  So, I don't want to forget any of it.  That's why I love to blog.  

Why the Story of 5?

A long, long, long time ago I had another blog. It was The Story of Us on typepad. I loved my typepad blog, but it was costing $4.95 a month and I was about to become a stay at home mom.  So, I went to blogger and the story of us was already taken.  So, I chose the story of 5 to represent us all including our doggies. :)  

When I found out I was pregnant with our 2nd baby, John Michael gave me a sweet Christmas present.  He reserved The Story of 6 for me.  For some reason, I knew I wanted to wait until I transferred to that domain.  So, whenever we do have another baby, it will become the story of 6.   


I'm sure there is more to add, but I'm going to leave it at this now.  If you have any questions about my blog or why I love to blog, or anything like that - feel free to ask and I'll try and post them here!
