2012 Bloggy Review

This post is a little summary of my corner of the blogging world for 2012. I'm sharing the most popular posts, the least popular posts, and a few posts I wish had been seen by more readers because I really liked them personally and enjoyed writing them.

It did not occur to me to do this at the end of last year, but out of curiosity I checked and discovered my three most popular posts from 2011 were A Quick Christmas-y Post (still the most-read on the blog to date), The One I Didn't Post, and Now I Get It (Second Posting). My most popular post from 2010 was Feeding Baby. (The least-read posts for both 2011 and 2010 are too embarrassing to even list here. Seriously, I look at my archives sometimes and feel a bit nauseous. Yikes.)

Anyway, the following posts are listed in alphabetical order, not in order of page views. All of the most-read posts were also shared as part of a link-up or blog carnival. All of the least-read posts were published since mid-October . . . around the same time the number of Facebook "likes" actually seeing my posts dropped off dramatically. (I don't think this is a coincidence.) Also, this list only includes posts published on my own blog; some of the posts I published with Connected Mom received more page views than the ones listed here.

I have no specific blogging goals for 2013 . . . my intention is to simply write when I have something to say and try to be supportive of fellow writers along the way. I hope you will stick around.

Thanks for reading and have a blessed day.
