I would like to try something different with my blog. I have come to the point where I don't know what to say anymore, other than to catalog my son's milestones. And while such a theme affords me a limitless supply of material, I would also like to tie in commentary on stuff that other people might have an interest in.
So... I have an idea. I am going to start writing letters to Lincoln. I'll try telling him about his cute quirks, the things I hope to teach him throughout life, and all that he has taught me so far. I know, I know-- this is sounding even more exclusive than where I was to begin with. But, you'll see. I will pull in material from current news stories and discuss the possible implications it may have for his generation. I will write product reviews on the items which worked for us and those that flopped. I will talk about the emotions of a new parent and how I dealt with them. And in the process, I hope to create something enjoyable for you and me now, and for Lincoln someday in the future. At the very least, he'll know something about his mama and the world she lived in during his early years.
Feel free to tell me if you like/dislike this idea. And then feel free to tell me if you like how it actually turns out, once I've created some content. Keep in mind that "Dear Lincoln" also means "Dear YOU!"
ps- If this ends up working for me, I'll probably change the blog title and stuff. But lets just try it out first!
