Its a great free hobby. I have learned so much from reading other people's blogs, and I know I'm a better mother for it. It makes me feel good to know I'm not alone going through ear infections and tantrums. <BR/><BR/>The Soccer Mom Vote post was a good one.

My days at home revolve around it. It is sacred and when it is no more, I'll mourn it deeply. <BR/><BR/>Why do I blog? So many reasons. It started as a way to keep in touch without sending out multiple emails to friends and family. Now it's about sanity, therapy, friendship, community, and (I'm shocked to find) sheer Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273493776473085128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624110.post-19591069702404002842007-03-29T08:17:00.000-05:002007-03-29T08:17:00.000-05:00Forgot to add, I personally wouldn't fret about Ar...Forgot to add, I personally wouldn't fret about Arun and the nap thing.
