Why this blog has been born


My name is Autum Verbeck and I had a baby girl in May. As I see her develop and learn all of the new and exciting things that a baby goes through on their journey of growing up I wanted to let her know what she was doing at each moment. I decided to write them down in a paper journal, but I really hate writing and I am much more adept at typing. Not to mention quicker!


So this is a journal for my daughter to know what was in her past. Also I want to make sure that no matter what happens in our lives that she has the ability to look back on this and know who she was and where she came from.

My Mother and Grandmother passed away 6 and 5 yrs, respectively. Since my biological mother and father have disappeared, and they are out of my life, I don't have any ties to my past. I don't know several things about when I was a baby and it would be nice to know so I could compare and contrast different things about my own children. I know some of the things that I remember being told, but for the most part I am lost and I feel like I lost my past. Which in a way I did, because there is no one to tell me...."when you were little...." Its hard to deal with, but in the same I can't change it.

In my efforts to make sure that Booga always knows where she came from and who she has been throughout her life I am making this blog. That bieng said, if you would like to join us on this Journey, feel free to follow along.

This is to you, My Dear Booga, I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy writing it to you.

I love you with all my heart and soul!

Love,






Mommy
