Look, Mom, I'm Blogging!

I'm brand new to the world of blogging, so I'm not sure what I'm doing, how this will look, or whether anyone will even be able to see this!

Let's assume I've done it all correctly and someone is actually reading this. I've thought about doing this for a while if for no other reason then just to see what all the hub-bub is about regarding blogging - seems like everyone is doing it and I want to play too! However, I haven't had anything to say that was so important that the whole world would care enough to read it. So a couple years passed.

Now we're about to start the roller coaster that is the adoption process. What a perfect time to start a blog.

Some things I'm hoping to figure out about this blogging thing:
  1. How easy is it for everyone to find this?
  2. Is there a way to find out stats like how many people have visited?
  3. How do I increase my SEO?
  4. How user friendly is Blogger and would Wordpress better suit my needs?
That's enough for now.
Later

Hmmm...
On second thought, maybe I should change my intentions for this blog. Instead of thinking of it as a way of broadcasting my opinion about which people probably couldn't care less about it, I'll look at this as a sort of journal. I'll mostly focus each step of our adoption process. Maybe it'll be something I'd like to look back on in the future - so many thoughts and feelings can blur together during all the ups and downs to come from adopting a child.

I hope the rest of the blog isn't as mindnumbing as this entry.
