I told Pete that I loved his sweet little face and he said, with an enormous grin, "And I love your sweet OLD face!"
I cracked up, because sometimes if you don't laugh you might cry, and he grinned even wider. "Can you blog that?" he wanted to know.

Welcome
- Welcome to my blog, where I mostly natter on about my life with five kids. Occasionally (not very often, because teenagers keep a person humble) I dispense parenting advice. Occasionally I write about other things, like faith or food or my secret strategy for dealing with annoying kid behavior or whether I am fit to be a mother. Also: who is the mystery intruder? And: does stay-at-home mothering rot the brain? If you are worried about slow weight gain in a breastfed baby, this is my most-viewed post — hope it's helpful to you. Want to read more? I have some favorite posts linked here.
SO AWESOME that he wanted this blogged. :)

Jamie, I think this is my first comment, but I can tell you I've been reading your blog religiously (meaning both parts of the double-meaning there) for weeks. it's the first (only!) daily blog I've seen that is consistently both human and numinous. Thanks for letting us walk through your days, with all their imperfections and glories. I believe you might just be a saint, my friend.
fyi, soon I'll start my own daily blog and I aspire to be as good as you are at it. (You can read my Facebook notes about my trips to Prague and Kenya to see how I might do ...)

Dave, thanks so much for the kind comment. I'll be sure to add your blog to my feed reader when you start it up! It's been good to reconnect.
