Today’s topic is “write a letter to your readers.” I’ve been waiting for this topic because I wanted to let you guys know how I feel about you.
Dear Reader,
I think the most exciting part of a blogger’s “job” is having readers. Whether it’s a Facebook message, an email, a comment, or in person. If I had no readers, this blog would not be near as important to me. Yes, I go back and re-read some of my pregnancy or baby posts for fun, but I primarily write for other people…you guys!
I want you to know that I truly am grateful for those who “follow this site.” For those who read one, a few, or all of my posts! For your sweet comments (I have yet to receive a nasty one…oh geez, knock on wood…I think I might cry). For each and every new follower on my Facebook page. For your personal emails that ask a question or encourage me. When I get a new email in my inbox for this blog, I get so excited to read it. They are VERY important to me because I know that person took the time to sit down and personally write me a letter. Plus, I love getting to know you guys through my blog. It may take me a while to reply, but I make an effort to answer your questions or thank you for your sweet words.
I think it’s easier to follow a blog that has many followers already because it shows it’s worth right away, but for a smaller blog such as mine, means people who read it really do find value/entertainment in what I say, or at least some of it (not just because it’s a popular blog). So all of you reading this, you are flipping awesome! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your support. I hope to keep entertaining you and sharing helpful information you can use! Oh and I love learning from you guys also. I certainly don’t know everything about money (far from it), so I’ve loved getting tips and suggestions from you guys too!
I LOVE to hear from you, like I said above. Please do not ever think your email isn’t read, that your comment is read without thought, or that your “Like” goes unnoticed. If there is anything you ever want to know or have an idea for a topic, please contact me and let me know.
Much Love,
Olivia

Wow Olivia!! What a sincere note to your readers! One of the things I've enjoyed most about the May challenge is the opportunity to find blogs like yours that I really enjoy reading!

Thank you Katie! I meant it. I've enjoyed "meeting" other bloggers also.
