Congratulations Lucy! Well deserved.
February 20th, 2009 at 12:16 pmI am brand-spankin’ new to your blog and following blogging in general, but it looks like I found my way to the right place!
As a mother of 3 I find the fog falling and lifting as if I live in a coastal town. It can roll in and out several times a day. It’s helpful to read AOM’s post and remember fog’s not permanent, the sun will shine. When the fog is dense it’s an act of faith to remember that the sun is still there and still shining even though we can’t see it. You will need those groovy shades again soon.
Thanks for the contest and topic and I’ll be looking forward to more from MamaBlogga!

February 22nd, 2009 at 12:19 pmThanks, Emily—look forward to hearing more from you soon! I’ve tried to do a GWP every month in the past, but since I had my baby girl in July, the blog has suffered. I hope to get back to monthly GWPs soon, though!
February 24th, 2009 at 5:11 pmI hear you about new babies. My third was born in August. If he wasn’t so mellow, i.e., if he was like his sister, I don’t think I’d see the light of day.
