On Comments, Camping and Carrying Christ

September 20, 2013 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Blogging, Minnesohta, Minnesota Me, Spiritual Growth, The Faith Leave a Comment

This post is for all you big-time blog readers, with a special shout-out to the locals.

Lanesboro VI

Question for you: How many blogs have you read today?

And now for the follow-up question: How many comments have you left?

I ask this question because, generally speaking, we blog-reading types tend to read far more posts than we ever comment upon, and as a blog-reading, blog-writing type, I can tell you in no uncertain terms…

 Those comments can really make one’s day.


You may not think that your words make a difference, but they do. You have the power to carry Christ to someone else–to offer verbal encouragement in the form of a “hey” and to lift up a momma’s lonely heart.

May I ask you to leave a comment today? Not on my blog–I’m closing comments so you can go somewhere else–and not on one of those big, mega-mommy blogs that generate comments by the dozens.

I’m talking about a little ol’ mom with a little ol’ blog…

Like myself…

For whom an unexpected comment might make all the difference.

And now, a directive to all you locals: If you can make it down to Lanesboro before the close of the camping season–whether in  a tent for the weekend or for the day with your bikes–GO! The trails are hill-less and beautiful; and the pie at the end of it, amazing.

All of the photos from today’s post & yesterday’s post & the day before yesterday’s post were taken on our ONE camping trip of the season.

Goodness, it restored my soul.

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
