Changes

I am so excited for the changes coming to the blog. I have wanted to take this leap for quite some time now and I finally feel like the time has come to do it. 

Let me give you a little background about myself. I am a girl of latin roots. My family came here from Tegucigalpa, Honduras nearly 32 years ago. My father and one of my brothers was the first to come with some of my aunts. After them came my mother. The rest of my brothers and sisters came shortly after. I am actually the only one of my family born here in the United States.

That being said, for years my family has called America our home and we are proud to live here. We still have family (aunts, uncles, cousins) living in Honduras. My roots are Honduran and  my love for the country runs deep. 

In the back of my mind I have always thought that maybe I should blog in Spanish, being as it might be easier for my family in Honduras to read and keep up with my life. 

My aunts made a trip to visit with us back in March.

I also feel that with the blog being in Spanish I could reach a larger audience to raise clubfoot awareness. I know there are already some websites that are in spanish for the clubfoot cause. I just feel that maybe, in some way, I can reach a spanish speaking clubfoot mother somewhere in the world and remind her she is not alone.

I have also recently joined forces with Latina Bloggers and to be true to my roots I feel like I owe it to my Latina side to begin translating my blog. I know this will be a positive change to the blog and I truly feel like it's the right move.

Another change I have been teetering on is a Youtube channel. I first thought about opening one up when Josiah was born to share the actual journey with clubfoot, from the beginning, but I never mustered up the guts. One thing about me is I am so camera shy! You wouldn't think that because, hey, I'm a blogger! But really, the thought of my voice and my face being in a video really makes my stomach flip. However, I do feel that some things I want to share about clubfoot would be easier shared in a video. Plus you could finally get to meet the babies behind the blog! The ones who inspire most of my posts. So I decided I will give it a go! Now please don't expect to see the high definition "WOW" video you see with some of those talented vloggers because honestly, I barely know how to use a computer! I also do not have a DSLR camera, but I am hopeful what I have will do. I just have to figure out how to edit and I should be good..... Right?!

I hope you will continue to join me on our journey as these changes begin unraveling. I am hoping to have the translation up and running by the first post of August and a video sometime within the next few weeks.  Thank you for all your support it really means so much!
