Well, I’ve been neglectful in this category- for good reason, I’ve been focusing on the rest of the site:)
We got back from home from Florida 2 weeks ago, and that was an incredible vacation! There was a ‘day-camp’ in the hotel that Joey (7) and Jacob (5) really enjoyed. Ben (3) preferred to hang out with me, so we had a lot of fun. I did not miss cooking and cleaning while I was there; however I was totally aware that that was a “bubble of reality”- and not the way I’d really like to lead my life!
Now, what does one write about in a personal blog? I’m a fairly private person, so this type of “online journaling” is new to me.
We’re going to Brooklyn, NY for the weekend to my husband’s cousin’s Bar-Mitzvah. The boys are really excited, and being a forward-thinking mom, I plan to buy 2 new story tapes today for use on the four-hour drive, so they stay relatively calm and quiet!
Yesterday I spoke to a former co-worker of mine who, believe it or not, has a dozen children! Each child is a gem- this is one phenomenal mom! I asked her advice regarding a certain parenting matter, and she told me that my instincts had been correct. She also told me that my kids would be the greatest benefactors in my involvement in this parenting site, which was very heartening! Your children, too, will benefit from the time you spend here… so relax, and leave a few comments and questions!
