When I started This

When I began with the Ostroski Observer, it was a way to keep others informed about what was happening in our world. I had been doing a print version every couple of months, but with the rise in cost and limited time, it became more difficult.

However, with the blog, here, I have been able to keep things more up to date. I have also been seeing the blog as a way to keep up with pictures, thoughts, and such for the girls. Kind of like one huge online scrapbook/baby book for them (though I try to keep REAL scrapbooks too).

Because I always want to be honest with the girls, I may be interjecting the Observer with a few editorial comments here and there. I just wanted it to be a warning for some who just enjoy the pictures of the O girls (what we like to call Celie & Anna some times). Hopefully, I will not offend anyone, but I do want the girls to know how I am feeling at times too. Hopefully it will help them recognize their own feelings and be able to deal with them constructively.
