Hello!
Hello, to all who view this blog,
I am both powerfully nervous and extremely ecstatic to be joining all of you courageous writers here in blogland. I have thoroughly relished reading your posts and comments over the past months. Several have brought tears to my eyes and laughter to my lips as I have read and reread your trials, observations, stories, and giggles. First off I want to thank those who have encouraged me greatly these past months as my man and I have been attempting to find how dd/ttwd will work for us. Their words and responses to my countless emails have been amazing and each one genuinely appreciated more than they will ever truly know. Several times a response to an email would help me dig myself out of a hole I was getting myself into with my man, by gently reminding me of the reasons we had chosen this new way. Other times I was already in over my head and had to deal with the inevitable consequences, but their words would help to calm and reassure me that this too was apart of the process. Thank you all again.
So, a bit about us as I'm certain that's why you all found your way here in the first place. My man and I have been married close to 15 years and yes, we have children. I learned about this similar to most of you by simply googling, "spanking" which lead to "domestic discipline". I found myself fascinated with the thought of this lifestyle as it seemed an answer to my prayers. I deeply desired my man's leadership and needed his direction and support. My man and I are still in the beginning stages, taking things slowly, day by day, but we are growing closer and for that I am grateful.
Now, I invite you all to come along and see how things work here. I still have many unanswered questions and lots of genuinely good laughs to share, so bear with me as I stick my little toe in and see what becomes of this little blog. As I said, we are rather new, we will most likely falter here and there as my man and I make our way forward in what we consider a sweeter approach to life.
Baker and My Man

I think that you will find a community full of the same- supportive, loving, ready to listen, offer some advice if you want it, and right there to lift you up during tough times. It is one of my very favourite places to be! I am betting that you will find it the same.

Congratulations on your first blog post! Many hugs,

Katie,
DeleteThank you so much for stopping by and offering such kind words! Yes, I have been very blessed indeed by the lovely ladies who have encouraged me these last few months. I believe I have driven them a bit crazy with my plethora of emails, but I have learned valuable information of which I am truly grateful. I love the green too! I actually chickened out and my man had to press the publish button. He thought hiding under the blankets was rather childish of me. It just took me sometime to get my head around things. Doing much better this morning. Thank you for coming by and being so sweet and encouraging.
--Baker
