Going Private

So today I looked on my sister's blog and this is what I read. I have wondered for a long time if I should make my blog private and after reading this I have decided. As of December 1st we will be going private. If you are family or friend and would like to continue to view our blog please leave me your email address so I can send out an invite. Hope you are safe and well.

From my sisters blog:
Creeped Out!

I feel the need to share this with all my blogging pals, especially those of you with public blogs. Yikes!

So today I was on the phone with my sister and she told me something that really creeped me out. She recently posted pictures of my nephew’s baptism on her blog. A couple days later she received a really disturbing comment from a woman who wrote that someone had been pretending to be her and my brother-in-law for several months and to email for more information.

Well, after emailing this woman, my sister found out that some random guy has been accessing dating sites, pretending to be my brother-in-law. He took a lot of pictures of my nephews from my sister’s blog and sent them to these women claiming they were his sons.

It gets worse… my sister hasn’t updated her blog in a while, so recently this guy started saying that my sister was killed and that he was now a poor widower with three boys. So twisted, just thinking about it makes me sick.

The whole thing was revealed when my sister posted about my nephew’s baptism and the women realized she was still alive.

Anyways, I’ve heard several creepy blog-stalking stories, but none have hit this close to home. It makes me worried about my nephews and that much more protective of my girls. Before this I was on the fence when it came to private blogs, now I’m all about 'em.
