A few suggestions
1. You have a bunch of ads at the bottom. Unless you can place them more prominently in the upper part of you blog, get rid of them. No one will scroll that way down. They are below your Next/Previous navigation and when I scroll down and then click 'Older Posts' I haven't seen even one of those ads, so they are practically useless.
2. You don't need to show of your number of Feedburner readers if you don't have that many. I'm no more likely to subscribe to your blog whether you have 2 or 20 or 200 or 2000 readers. It's your content that counts. It's always nice to show off, but better wait until you have some numbers to show off.
3. Followers. You have a spaceholder for followers, but no followers. The same as with #2 above. If there aren't (m)any, why show them?
4. A looooooooooong list of blogdirectories at the bottom. Ask yourself, do you get any traffic from them at all? Regardless of waht they try to tell you, my experience is no traffic at all. Carefully consider whcih ones you want to use/display.
5. Alexa rating. Same as with #2 and #3. Wait until you have a good rating.
6. Donate button. Nice, but IMO you should decide between either ads or donate. Both is not good. While I might want to donate to someone who has no ads but a donate button, you can be sure that I will not donate to someone who has monetized their blog. Well, that's my POV, others may think differently. And if you have a donate button, explain why, say that you want a donation because [enter reason why here]
7. Content. E-mails by friends? That may very well be, but nothing is original, it is all copied off the Internet somewhere. That makes it very unlikely that you will be found by Google or other search engines, since the content already exists. Just in case you wonder why very few come to visit you. While I may be enticed to come back and read those cute stories once I have found your blog, finding it in the frist place is very unlikely.
I hope I haven't been to harsh here. Just few well-meant suggestions.
