My Last Post

The first snowfall was today, I took Myah outside for this picture!

****update, I have had a few of you ask me to at least keep my blog open so you can look back on my posts, so I have decided to remove the private setting****
Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know that I am closing my blogs this week, I am super busy with life and really feel guilty when I don't post. I am simplifying my world and this is just one little area that I spend way too much time on. My kiddies and hubby deserve my undivided attention. Trust me, I will do my fair share of checking in on blogs but I spend alot of time on the computer with my photo business and frankly need a break from the computer. Thanks for allowing me to come into your lives and hopefully inspired a few of you along the way! See you around!
Love ya all! Leslie

You will be really missed!! I know what you mean about it taking up so much time and feeling guilty. I don't know how moms do it. I just have a husband right now and it is hard. :) Are you going to leave them up so we can look at all your past posts? Your pictures are always so great.

That is a beautiful picture of your little girl too!

Never commented before, but thank you for sharing your blog. I totally understand where you are coming from. I have been sick for almost two weeks and have not been able to blog a lot, but I have spent a lot of time w/ my family and have really enjoyed getting to know them again.

Glad to know you are doing what feels right for you!!!

Good for you! I have been contemplating the same thing. I’ve tried to cut back, but it’s kind of addicting. I know there are so many more important ways to spend time. Now I just need to keep on repeating that until it really sinks in. Good luck.

Thanks for stopping by my blog yesterday!!

That picture is beautiful!

I totally understand the need to stop blogging....I'm wondering how long I'll last!

B said...

What a stunning photo. Wow. Sad that you are leaving, just as I found your blog, but I can understand. I'm simplifying my life right now too for the same desire to give my kids (and husband) my undivided attention. It's the right thing to do. At least for me, and you since you're doing it. Best of luck with everything.

Katie said...

Katie said...

OK, I am not sure how I stumbled here and I see you are not really posting anymore, so I am not even sure if you will read this - But I have to say, THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PICTURES I HAVE EVER SEEN!! Oh, my gosh, you have a STUNNING PRINCESS!!! WOW!!!

Thanks for all the nice comments you have left on my blog. I have been so busy during the holidays I didn't get a chance to respond. It does take a lot of time to blog and do it successfully...so I totally understand your reason for closing it down.

Maki said...
