I too have been amazed at the like-minded souls I have come across through blogging. It is these 'kindred spirits' who fuel my enthusiasm for writing blog posts as like you said, it's nice to feel like others out there 'get' what I'm blogging about. Your blog is always a source of inspiration for me and I love seeing the latest snippets of daily life with your gorgeous family xxAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14697932926715802541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948397622243147877.post-85890715692350036242012-11-09T16:20:16.037+11:002012-11-09T16:20:16.037+11:00gosh, look at all your lovely comments :)

We now live in Canberra & are raising chickens & herbs/ vegetables (like we have at every Army posting) & all set to move to the country as Canberra has so many regional options. We'll keep the children in the city schools, as we're in year 8 for the eldest now, but our focus was to always move to the country, it's practical here, love Posieposie blogs Jennie McClellandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07422068499429667636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948397622243147877.post-66310119305547541112012-11-08T19:43:41.891+11:002012-11-08T19:43:41.891+11:00I'm so glad that you are finally getting some ...I'm so glad that you are finally getting some much needed rain.

I love your blog. I don't get here every day but when I do, I read back to the last entry I read. I find a very familiar feeling here, not that you copy me, no no, we're too far apart in age and location for that, it's more that we share similar values, we both fit in the centre of our families and we try things. We try things that might not work but we do it anyway. I consciously live my life trying, and I hope I never stop doing it. I hope you don't either.<br /><br />xxrhonda jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08962112306968959985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948397622243147877.post-34307867187665790362012-11-08T08:34:26.762+11:002012-11-08T08:34:26.762+11:00I love reading and looking at your pictures.

Like you I don't know too many people like me with the sewing, baking, DIY lifestyle in person, but I am so thankful to know so many through the world of blogging.<br /><br />It has been a joy getting to read your blog, watch the simple workings of your home, and get to know you and your family in this way.<br /><br />Which, by the way, that photo of facepainted Julia and sweet little Violet.

I recently read someone's view that blogging about 'the everyday' is no way to keep a successful blog. I love what you and your family have done, are doing, and dream of an acre block with a veggie patch and a chook pen, room enough for a big trampoline and a cubby house.. and connecting with lovely writers like yourself, keeps that little dream alive. I love coming to visit, I LOVE reading about your everyday, your little journal. I always feel so calm when I leave xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859110942745952818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948397622243147877.post-16720048407729872962012-11-07T21:33:40.002+11:002012-11-07T21:33:40.002+11:00Hi Tania, I feel very much the same as you about b...Hi Tania, I feel very much the same as you about blogging.
