The Best of 2014 a Year Review!

Wednesday, December 31, 2014

  This is my first year in review since I started blogging. I am excited to bring you the top ten posts of the year. Together we have accomplished more then I ever dreamed of when I started Dragonfly & Lily Pads in October 2013. I want to thank each of you for support.  As this year ends I have a sense of relief, excitement, and a positive outlook for the coming year.
Why relief you ask? Because we all have times that our life takes us in a totally different direction. I believe in helping when there a need from some one you love. Family has taken on a whole new meaning to us this year.
Excitement now your wondering? Making that day in Oct. 2013 count as Something New each day by writing DNLP blog. This blog is a bit of a gift to myself, as I express my creativity, share my love by inspiring others, and transforming all of us into the people and lifestyles we strive for in everyday life.
   OK! A little deep I  know but, it is truly how I feel.
Positive outlook is pretty easy because, this year has been a difficult year outside of these pages. 2015 is going to be different. I have learned a few valuable lessons about who I am and where I want to be this coming year. I will be sharing more about these goals during the coming year.
Today is about the closing the past year 2014 and opening a new door to 2015. Choosing what I want to carry with me as hard taught lessons, and what to Let Go! Yeah I went there...LOL
  Today I am sharing the top ten posts of the year chosen by you .

 While preparing this post I found out interesting information. I learned that you enjoy my +Silhouette America posts. I found out that even a post that did not do that well in 2013 soared to #3 in 2014. The posts that are made for a specific person, gift, or reason seem to inspire you to comeback to read DNLP. You like tutorials better than look what I did posts, which taught me you are seeking information and learning from my blog. I am paying attention to the lessons I have learned from this year. Dragonfly & Lily Pads will be ringing 2015 in with content you desire, a more user friendly design, and I will be attending two conferences to learn how to move my blog forward in this ever changing format.
