The first snow fell today and I took Myah outside for a few shots!
I am so sorry to say it but yes I have finally decided that it is time to close my blog. No real reasons other that I have been doing this for almost 3 years now and I need a rest. I spend way too much time on the computer especially with doing pictures and all. My family really needs to see my face instead of my forehead looking at the screen. I hope you all understand, I am so grateful for the friendships that I have made and I know that some of you will be my lifelong friends! I still can be contacted by email at
daysmom@charter.net and those of you who know me have my number. I have so enjoyed doing this but I am trying to simplify my life and this is one area that I always feel guilty if I don't keep it up, I know many of you enjoy hearing our stories and check in on us daily. I love you for that! I have had some stomach issues cropping up again and need to get myself taken care of, I will be fine but just need to clean my schedule up a bit and I spend way to much time blogging that is for sure!
Besides Dayton always begs me not to blog about certain things and I feel like maybe it is time to close the shades a bit for the kids sake.
Please keep in touch and maybe I will see you around ! I will still be checking in on my blog buddies never fear!
Thanks for being part of our journey to Myah!

Oh... I am so sad that you are closing your blogs! I understand though. I'll just have to get on the horn and call you to catch up!!! :-)

I completely understand how you are feeling. I want you to know that I have so enjoyed visiting your blog and your family is just beautiful.
Many blessings and enjoy the holiday season!
This photo of Myah is gorgeous!
I have the same fantasy myself some days!! LOL! I have to first get through our trip to China, which will be made into a book for us to keep - then we will see. Your Myah is gorgeous and your Dayton is handsome & I sure appreciate the glimpse through your living room curtains into your lives!! God Bless You!!
I will miss all of your updates on your sweet family, and your wonderful decorating ideas on your other blog, but I know I will keep in touch :)
P.S. I will email you to get your address again so I can return your travel scale...what a HUGE help that was when packing...sorry it has taken me so long :)
Hugs
Ohhhh,maaaan(in a whiny voice)! Can't say I won't miss your blog (because I will), but I completely understand. I've known too many people put the little things above the well-being of their family, or their own health. Good for you. God bless you and your family.

I'm going to miss your blog, girlfriend. It was a great way to keep up with what was going on in your family. I guess I'm just going to have to call more often and arrange more trips to your side of the state! Take care my friend.
So sad.....I will miss you terribly. I so completely understand and sometimes hink of doing the same thing. I have gotten horrible about reading others blogs and even feel like it is a chore to post sometimes. I love you friend and I will miss seeing your posts. In fact, go see my post today...you might recognize something;)

I, too, will miss your daily updates and beautiful photography. However, I completely understand. Thank you for sharing your adorable family with us!
She is breathtaking! You picked the perfect photo for your grand finale! I will miss you! What a blessing it has been for me to meet you via your words and photos!
I will keep in touch! A girl has to have Matilda Jane right?
Thanks for everything!
Love,
Diana
P.S: Go to my blog when you have time, for today's post!
Hi Leslie,
I will definitely miss your blogs. I have enjoyed all your posts about your beautiful family and all your creative ideas. The picture of Myah on this post is amazing. Good luck with your photography.
I will also miss your decorating blog. Thank you for sharing so many great ideas and great finds. I'm still looking in Houston for some of those good deals. :) My favorite idea you posted about was framing hand written recipes from your grandmothers. I love it and hope to do it someday. Thanks for sharing your world with us.
Blessings,
Jill
I will miss looking in on your cute little family! I may follow your lead in the future, but need to record some more things. Thanks Leslie, for your uplifting thoughts and photos. And for being such a great example of a mother and wife!
Leslie,
Thank you SO much for sharing your blog. We are awaiting our LOA from China for our daughter, Liliah who is waiting for us in an orphanage in Guangxi. She will be our first and so checking into your blog weekly has really helped us pass the time and dream! I will miss your stories & creativity! All the best to your family.
While we understand your closing your blog, we will miss your blog very much! You and your family have been an inspiration to many in so many ways. Thanks for sharing with us these past 3 years. Wishing you and your family the best always. Please keep in touch! Blessings, Wendy and Bella
I've really enjoyed your blog and I'm sorry I won't be able to check in. I do understand though...I recently closed mine and I can tell you that my family is glad!
I wanted to say before you close that I hope your dad is doing better.

Boy do I understand! I'll miss reading about your adorable family and seeing your amazing photos. Maybe this will help us get together outside of the blog world and catch up in person. We really need to do this!
Hey Leslie~
I sure will miss your blog and completely understand. I can appreciate the whole privacy thing and Dayton's request there. :) I know we will stay in touch, but I will miss your family updates from week-to-week.
Thanks for all that you've shared over the years and for your inspiration and mostly for your friendship. You'll always be incredibly special to me for reaching out to me through email...thank you. :)
This picture of Myah is just gorgeous!
Hugs and love,
Lori
