 Year One. 

Year Two.

Year Three.

Year Four.

Hello there!  ♥♥♥

Today is a very special day... It's Ryan Gosling's Birthday! But more importantly (to me anyways) it is also my four year blog anniversary! Four years ago on November 12th, as a sophomore in high school I started Someone Like You. It has grown as I have grown, matured as I have matured, evolved as I have evolved. This blog is more than an internet URL, it's a part of me that has become a defining factor in who I am.

I am more proud of this blog than anything else I have ever done. It has been the keeper of my thoughts, helper of my dreams, and release of my creativity. Where would I be if I had never started blogging? How would my life be different? Who would I still have impacted? Some startling questions to ponder on that make me feel so blessed that I listened to my 10th grade English teacher and dove into the world of blogging.I know that not only him, but God pushed me to start this blog. With His guiding hand I am able to do something I absolutely love every day...I am in awe of His plan for me that He's known all along and that I'm just now seeing finally!

As always, I think it's fun to do a little bit of stats every year for my blog :)
