Bringing families together...

I'm extremely excited about my upcoming website that soon will be created. Recently I joined a women's entrepreneur club to learn about how I should go about launching my site. We meet once a month and share our goals, give advice on how to overcome obstacles and encourage one another in achieving our dreams. I am dating a man who has a wonderful son from a previous marriage; however like most separated families his child only see's his mommy every other weekend and school holiday. Also, like divorced families the relationship between the parents is tense and children can always sense this. Therefore, I came up with the idea to create a website for kids where they can go to and share with the other parent what they did that day. Look what I did today.com was born. I quickly started brainstorming and came up with some great ideas. Living in today’s high level of web knowledge kids would love to have their own private webpage. (passwords and high security is a must) The child can update his or her page daily, if needed with the help of an adult and customize the layout. I read in the National Vital Statistics Report that in 2007 the divorce rate in America is 49.3%. We need a way for children to contact and share their day to day life with their mommy's and daddy's and I feel this is just the way to do so. Now all I have to do is make this website a reality.

First time ever...

I'm going to start out by giving you a brief run-down on how this blog came about. In a couple of months I will be launching my own website where I can bring kids and their relatives closer together. I think it's a great idea the only problem is I have zilch experience in anything to do with launching my own website. So what is a girl to do?? Well first I went through countless websites on "how to start your own website business" and that got me nowhere fast. Then I started reading books on the subject but it left me with even more questions so I joined a club. This is a club where other women meet once a month who want to become a success. My first meeting was last week and we chatted about all sorts of stuff including blogging, and I asked "what's a blog?" I must be living under a rock because apparently everyone knows what a blog is. So now here I am starting my very own first blog and ready to run with it. I need to dive into this world of blogging so when my website does become a reality then I will have a following, I will be more computer savvy and I will get people to my site. So that's my plan!! Any tips, feedback and comments are appreciated. ~Celia
