Hello lovely readers. I just wanted to take a moment to say that I reached 50 followers on this blog! It was technically yesterday, March 09, but I had already posted once and I didn’t want to post two times in one day.

So I just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who has read my posts, liked, commented, and of course followed. It means the world to me. I never expected to have this many readers.
They say the first 50 is the hardest number to accomplish, so hopefully this blog will keep growing from here on out. Sometimes it’s discouraging to see other blogs who already have 300 followers in less than one month of blogging. But I’m working towards not comparing my blog to others’.
I started this blog back in November 2016 (technically) but I didn’t really start posting until December when I participated in Blogmas. I posted every single day for about 18 days that month. I saw a ton of activity in December, but after Blogmas, it sort of dropped off for the month of January. That was a bit discouraging, but I kept with it.
February saw a little more growth, but still not nearly as successful as it was in December. Now this month in March, only ten days in, I surpassed the views for the entire month of February. We should be well on track to beat December’s views.
Again, thank you to everyone who has helped me grow this blog to a place I never thought it would be. I appreciate all the love and support!
Congrats on your now 51 followers 😉

Congratulations! I totally agree, it is discouraging. I know people that have been blogging for a year with thousands of followers. I’ve been blogging since 2013, which is a while, and in the past year my blog has only just started getting followers. It takes a lot of time, huh?

Yes everything takes so much time! It’s so much nicer to get immediate results. Blogging for me takes up a ton of my time and effort so it’s great to see it pay off, even if it’s only 50 followers. Thanks for being a reader!
