I have to apologize for my ice cream blog post the other day. I have to admit I feel really bad, I feel like I did the blogging community a big disservice. I am sorry that I was so pushy in asking any potential blog visitors to give up their anonymity. It was kind of big headed of me to even assume that there are people out there following my little baby blog and it was rude of me to be so brash in asking people to "show themselves."
I was over at Hanna's Mommy's blog today and she said the sweetest things to the people who read her blog but do not always comment and it just made me realize that I addressed the whole commenting thing the wrong way.
I have definitely done my fair share of blog stalking without commenting and for me to ask for every visitor to comment is pretty hypocritical.
I have had lots of lessons about what a dangerous weapon the tongue (or keyboard in blogging world) can be this past year and I guess I still have some work to do before I truly learn to control it.
Like, Hanna's Mommy I too feel honored when someone does take an interest in my random rambling and I apologize if I offended anyone with my pushy blog.

OMGSH! You are so sweet! Please do not give this a second thought! I took it really light heartedly and sort of tounge in cheek! In no way did you sound demanding! I thought your post was adorable!
I think it's admirable that you would qualify it and revise your sentiments but really you clearly always have good intentions!
i didn't think it was calling anyone out in a rude or brash way it all. it was a funny and lighthearted way to ask. :) seriously - i know i have blog stalkers that i want to comment (as you are my only commenter) but they just don't!
Thank you girls for making me feel better about this! I still feel a little guilty, but your comments definitely help!
I don't know how I missed this post but I nearly did until I saw the title on the side of your page!
Anyways, I completely agree with the other ladies! I thought you were just being cute and sort of tounge in cheek too! It's sooo normal to want people to "show themselves!" Trust me, I wish that people who have told me they faithfully read my blog would leave a comment every once in a while! We are just human and all appreciate a little recognition sometimes! :)
