In my last post, I mentioned that in the beginning no one read my blog, so I felt as if I was talking to myself. That seemed to strike a chord with at least one other blogger. Alyssa, at I Wish has been going into my archives and commenting on those old posts, so they don’t feel so lonely. Her comments are so nice that I decided to check out her blog…and I’m delighted that I did!

Though I wrote her an e-mail asking if she wanted to send a post to link, Alyssa was too modest to do so. She said, “Mine is just a blog about me learning photography.” Not so. Alyssa’s blog is about a journey toward a dream. She secretly wants to be a professional photographer, but don’t tell anyone. Actually, if you look at her pictures, you wouldn’t know that she isn’t professional already.

Interspersed with pictures of her lovely children, including this one of her daughter at the beach, are posts with tons of information about photography and sparkling tidbits that I think she uses for self-encouragement. She also wrote a post, called Misundertanding that will seem like deja vu to any of us who have struggled with telling our dreams out loud to our loved ones.

Please take a minute to go check out the site. Comment for her, so she won’t feel so alone out there. Her blog may not get a lot of traffic right now, but it will. And, y’all want to say you “knew her when…”

And come back in an hour or two. I’m editing another post for today (yes, smarty-pants, I can too make a post shorter!). I just wanted to take time out to give Alyssa a little bit of Link Love.
